-I'm so in love with my iPod Touch that I haven't turned on my real computer in two days. I don't think that's ever happened before. I decided long ago that my next computer will be a Mac by hook or by crook (which I will get after I graduate, if all goes according to plan), but now I have even more of a burning desire for an iPhone, if that's even possible. At risk of sounding spoiled or high-maintenance, I'm already mourning the fact that there isn't wifi in the Village back at UEA. However, portable wifi routers exist for about $50, where a little bit of plastic plugs into an Ethernet cable and makes a local wifi network. I think it would be considered ridiculous for me to get one just to power my iPod at UEA, but next year, in whatever flat I get with Rosie, it's unlikely to have wifi either (for our computers). If I pay $50 now, I both can have wifi in my room this year, and in our flat next year for the both of us. I might just do it, though I know Dickinson used to take serious issue with students creating their own wifi networks in the dorms. I wonder if UEA has a similar policy, or if they'd even find out if I created one.

-I'm not one for New Year's resolutions, usually, but this year I have two:
1. Write in my fricking diary every day. I've been keeping one of those Bridget-Jones-type diaries for a few years now (in addition to regular journals, which I've done since I was six), where you write the mundane things you did every day down on a page for future reference. I like doing it, it's proven useful, and it's fun to look back on. But with the craziness of my last semester, I wasn't as good about it as I should have, and I either never got around to writing things down (most notably all of my time in London, and most of late December), or more commonly, recalled what I did up to a week later and summarized it in general terms just so I had something down. This year, I'm going to make every effort to write down what happened ON the actual day it happened. I'll thank myself later.
2. Make a book of lists. A few weeks ago, I stumbled across a collection of books, which was tied with a website called Listography. I created an account on the site, even though I have yet to use it, because I think it's another exercise in self-discovery and inspiration and blah blah blah that I'd actually end up loving. I'm going to put some on my own Listography in good time, but I'm keeping a hardcopy, more extensive version for myself, too.

-In addition to all the other internetting things I do (Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, Live Journal, Listography, and others), I'm debating whether or not to get a Tumblr. Two of my friends recently got them, and since it's basically a Twitter with more visual/audio/multimedia posts, I just might do it. I mean, I could totally use more things to procrastinate work with on the internet, right?
