the color of my energy

I have a keyboard that lights up in 3 different colors: blue, red, and purple. I turn on the light in different colors depending on the activity I’m doing on my computer. Blue is for work, because blue incites structure and focus. Red is for video games because red is strong and fills me with the kind of energy needed for video games. Purple is for anything involving art and purely for satisfaction purposes, because purple is calming and lets me know I am free to enjoy myself.

sometimes the corners have mines

When I play minesweeper, I always have to click all the corners before I do anything else.

lol…does that bother you?

I have a problem with the word “LOL” in lowercase letters. I can’t ever get myself to write it like that.

my life in pictures

i check my flickr compulsively, even when i haven’t uploaded anything new in ages. if i don’t, i get an overwhelming feeling that someone said something life-alteringly important. i can’t stop thinking about it.

eager beaver

i can’t post more than one album on facebook in a day, or post an album with pictures that were recently taken, for fear that people will consider me too eager or too lame.

email with no past

Whenever I reply to an e-mail, I always erase the original message that automatically gets copied into my message when I hit “reply.” I don’t know why. Also, I have a horrible memory, so when I get a reply to an e-mail that doesn’t have my original message, I forget what I said and get annoyed and need to go find the sent message so I remember what the reply is regarding. But I still always erase it before I send it.

validation

Whenever I make a comment on this website or one like it (like FML) I have to keep the browser open and compulsively refresh it for a few hours to see if anyone has responded to my post…do people think i am witty? mean? do they agree with me?

perfect scheduling

When it is time to schedule classes I want to have the best one so much that I make an excel spreadsheet of every possible combination. Last semester I had 83 spreadsheets.

i like math

When I download or install something, I always watch the percentage bar and try to convert the percentage into a fraction, like “okay, it’s seven twentieths of the way done.”

typos are confusing

I can’t stand when people put a comma at the end of a sentence instead of a period because they made a typo. I don’t mind if they put a slash instead of a question mark because they let go of the shift key, but the comma typo always makes me feel like they left their thought unfinished.
