the countdown begins

alas . . the summer is over for me. its amazing how quickly 10 weeks of vacation can pass.

this summer i
- sweated alot - i do mean gallons
- learned lots of romanian - though my speaking leaves much to be desired
- dream come true - radiohead in concert
- saw lots of art and other culturally important (western european) stuff in italy
- read dozens of books (mostly pulp)
- lazed about pretending like i was gonna be productive tomorrow

sadly my tomorrows are at an end and will need to actually start doing worthwhile productive stuff. monday, i go back to work for the week of preplanning. will be a shock to the system

funnily enough, have been listening to lots of peter gabriel. not the sledgehammer stuff (i truly detest that song) but the score from the last temptation of christ, the really old stuff - the four albums named peter gabriel, and scores from movies birdy and rabbit proof fence. i love the world music aspects and well, the instrumentals are beautiful.

slowly slowly, i must prepare.
