...makes me a rather grumpy girl. I am usually fine with solving problems and thinking through issues on my own, but when the problems get too complicated (infinite solutions times infinite consequences), I freak out and shut down. Then, it takes a good bit of "away time" to get me level-headed again so that everything becomes clear and looks more manageable. Of course, in my case, the "away time" is best spent sleeping.
But enough about my psychotic behaviors. Everyone has them and it really all boils down to management, whether in terms of time or information or expectation.
Link of the day: www.esnips.com
What is it: another one of those P2P portals. It has evolved quite a bit since a few years back when one can download without having to join its membership network. I still enjoy the site though, because it hosts many non-music file types (i.e. ebooks, word documents, spreadsheets) in addition to mp3s. One can still download songs if the uploader enables the option. A great source for electronic manuals, language books, and anime pop songs.
Artist of the day: Agustin Rodin
Who is he: a genius of a sculptor. I have never truly appreciated his work until I visited Rodin's house and museum in Paris and saw his work as a collective whole. Rodin possess the means to express feelings and raw powers through his imperfect figures. Of course, the anatomy of his figures are more or less correct, but it is the very "less correct" parts of his works that bring his figures to life, for they are hard to define like a moment caught unexpectedly. This in-between quality hints at movement and hence, life, rendering Rodin's sculpture not so much lifelike in their detail as lifelike in their impression. Little wonder then, that Rodin is grouped with the Impressionists.
