Back to normal life again. I came in off the plane on Friday at about 7:30 p.m. and have been adjusting to everything. Lots of stuff to do and I keep trying to do it all at once but I’m finding out that it’s not quite possible.

So, I’m currently thinking about buying a laptop from PCLaptops. And once I do, I’ll probably put the Fedora Project on it (which I guess is the latest and greatest, but oh boy do I feel like I don’t know anything about computers anymore). On Saturday I booted my current laptop up and was trying to do some stuff in the Linux shell (cat, grep, pipes, etc.), but I couldn’t remember how to do it. After a few minutes of failure, suddenly my fingers spontaneously typed in the right command. Finger memory is truly amazing. In fact, I’ve come back and played pieces on the piano that I haven’t tried in years and I’m able to play them just as if I’d been working on them yesterday.

Bought my textbooks for fall semester on Saturday. I’m taking family history, New Testament, Greek 101, Italian 101, Ancient Egyptian, and Thai. It’ll be fun. No, I haven’t decided on a major yet, but it’s looking like it’ll have something to do with languages.
