I picked up a bit of a cold the other day, just the common cold, none of the SARS. People are going apeshit these days, it’s kind of ridiculous, the odds on you dying from it are pretty slim compared to a lot of other things. I guess it’s the whole epidemic thing. I just pump myself full of nasal decongestants and try to carry on with my studying. The point, well the point is this picture that i found at CNN (link). Yes, it’s a Kerropi breathing mask, just when you thought Hello Kitty had everything.

Alright, two exams down, three left to go. I had some Digital Systems and some Operating Systems to do. I think they went alright, considering i sporadically went to class the last month and had to teach the courses to myself. I find it a bit easier at the end, when you cram it all together and get a solid view of the big picture. Although, that shit doesn’t pan out sometimes and you’re left just staring at the exam and the fine wood grain surface of the desk.

I was briefly concerned that the sport of wife-carrying was restrictive in the sense that you needed to have a wife. Although, I guess it’s just some sort of figurative thing, like ‘Tennis’. I was also worried about the polygamists, carrying three wives would be much harder than carrying one.
