I'm in a computer lab between classes. That is between phonology 2 and syntax 2. I'm extremely tired and having some sinus/nasal passage issues due to presumably fall related allergies. There's been a horrible, loud buzzing sound in the lab for the past 4 or 5 minutes.
I'm here mostly to staple together my reason for being so tired, the first syntax assignment, which I finished last night and printed today. I got it after quite a lot of work, but I fear my answer may seem a bit too unpolished or strange. I think I got the concepts just right and the phrase structure trees appear alright to me. Now that it's stapled and printed I feel that it's "out of my hands," and not worth thinking about again until I get the assignment back.
I've had class since 9:45 this morning, and work since 7:30. I went to sleep around two in the morning after working on syntax for quite a while, and woke up sometime around 6:45, getting about 5 hours of sleep. I'm tired, dirty and unwashed. My hair is greasy, as it almost always is after just one day of not showering. As far as I can remember, I haven't eaten anything today.
Someone sent me a promotional, or spam email. This isn't strange, as it happens all the time. I use a relatively shitty free personal email service (yahoo,) and there is quite a bit of spam, even in spite of their rather robust spam filter. However, this spam was different, the subject line read: كل ما تتمناه من عالم الإنترنت
In fact, the whole thing is in arabic. So, my goal now is to make a half-hearted translation, and find out what the hell I'm being spammed about. Or if perhaps it isn't spam, but something more interesting.
