I got back from California this afternoon. Time passes by very quickly. It was a lot of fun. Yesterday I was with my uncle on some cliffs overlooking the beach (Torrey Pines Gliderport), watching the hang gliders go by. It was even windy — cool stuff. I didn’t realize till I got home that I was thoroughly sunburned, though. I’m rather tired (got four hours of sleep last night).

Wow, I enter the MTC in exactly one month. I didn’t realize it was that close. Goodness. I’m excited, though. I studied some Thai on the flight to California — it’s coming along quite well.

I’m definitely getting the hang of using h/j/k/l in Vim instead of the arrow keys. It’s much, much, much nicer. On the Vim mailing list there’s been a thread recently about vi-style keybindings for bash (the Bourne Again SHell). Sounds quite cool. I really need to start using Caps Lock for the left Control instead of the Control key. I really like scrolling in Galeon with ‘j’ and ‘k’. I feel much more like a power user now.
