Well, if the trend sticks, I may have something to stream too.
Problem is, that it's something more recent, hence my question.

Excuse my attention-whoring, my mood is a bit unstable lately...

And once again, proof for my invisibility.

I don't get you. Invisi-- waat?

I have a new favorite wine. I'm currently reading the name off a worksheet, but this Premium Fine Muscat produced by R.L. Buller and Son is like drinking pecan pie.

IF you don't send me some, i think you can blame the next technological failure on me.

This is the best I can do. I think that's it. It's a tiny bottle, though (half the size of a standard wine bottle).

Its my way of not laughing alone at something funny.

A really smart girl asked if she could borrow my lecture notes for a math class, because apparently mine are really clear >_w<  I'm super-happy about that.

I always sucked at note taking.  I could never absorb what the teacher was saying and keep up writing at the same time.  I eventually found being super-involved in class dialogue to be more effective for retaining & comprehending, and gave up on notes altogether.  Obviously doesn't work for all subjects.  I rocked philosophy courses.  Struggled with math.

They make pens that are audio recorders, now.  Take sparse notes, then it lets you go back and check to see what the prof was saying at the exact moment that you wrote each thing.

Morning guys.
Today I get to spend the day with a very close friend that I haven't been able to spend time with for a while. And with any luck we might even find ourselves with a free lunch!  There is a downside, of coarse, but I'm slightly less freaked out about that now and looking towards the positive.

I am going to go take a shower.

Yeah, for math I follow the "it enters your mind through the hand" adage, but for other subjects I basically don't take notes on lecture (though I do take extensive notes on readings).  If I don't get it from the class discussions, then I reread the material a few times--but other than that, there's not much else I can do.

EDIT: And relistening to the lecture would be a real problem.  I take such good notes because my ears basically don't function as learning devices in the first place.  Unless I've written it down or said it myself, I don't understand it.  Also, I read waaaay faster than I hear >_>

[Tellemurius]

Its not that i suck at note taking, its that only i can comprehend my notes, i tried sharing with someone else and im a knucklehead and write all over the paper with no symbols determining flow. Im better off not writing them and do it by memory (which is apparently good considering i had never studied for a test in my life).

Yeah.  Those were a very new thing back when I was taking classes that actually required note-taking.  Past like 2004, all of my courses consisted of digital media projects.  Today, I probably give that a shot.
