A Moment Captured

What's happening when Creski says he's studying...

It's the first time I've taken a screenshot of the PC in ERC ground floor. These "study sessions" have been my routine for the past 2 weeks plus, ever since SWOT VAC started on 1st June.

If you look carefully, you can see:

1. Media Player - Now Playing: 2009-03-12@0905 (CRL 4.6 Superior and Posterior Mediastinum by Dr Jenny Hayes). Speed: 1.6X.
2. imeem - Playing: IvyFocus G2 (by iMusic). Website says it can improve brainwaves for focus, absorption, stamina and mental acuity. Don't know how true that is.
3. Firefox - Welcome to your Student Portal. To get Lectopia, lecture notes, email, notices, etc. Of course there's the distracting bit like Gmail and Facebook opened in multiple tabs.

So I'd have my printed lecture notes in front of me, my earphones plugged into my ears, and I'd spend 1-2 hours doing this. Two reasons: I won't study as efficiently in my own room, and even if I do, I'll use up the Internet download quota to get my lectures and the iMusic mp3's. Gotta make good use of our resources =)

It's a new way of studying for me, so it's pretty cool (although it's becoming a little bit mechanical/repetitive/robotic now that I've been doing it day in, day out for almost 20 days).

And I cherish the way that music/sound is augmenting my study. Here it is, a moment captured.

Can't wait for exam to be over.

Time for physical exercise.
