Bored, bored, bored, and we musn't forget the pain thing.

Why is it that I find myself so frequently bored? I could handle the boredom if I had nothing to do, but far too frequently I find myself bored when I have the most to do. Sure, I may be learning in this thing they call college, but I dunno, I don't think I'm being mentally stimulated enough. I think that the only class I actually find myself looking forwards to is my martial arts style self defense class. I find myself actually interested and invested in the class when I'm in it, whether it be because I'm thinking of how to react or just because I can concentrate on whatever I want. I'm in some relatively decent classes, such as Calculus 2, Computer Architecture, Research Paper (blech), and a class that mostly focuses on learning Java, but I still find myself relatively bored, even when I'm working my ass off doing homework for the classes, most of which entails a lot of endlessly dreary reading. I love to read, but when I am required to read several different textbooks on stuff that is going to be taught in class anyway, and have to get bogged down in technical crap, it gets boring as hell. I frequently find myself yawning in class and day dreaming just to amuse myself. How can so much work on things I want to learn be so dreadfully boring? Not that I particularly care to know how to build an incrementer out of binary logic gates, but I do want to learn how everything in a computer works, and I would think that would peak my interest a little bit, especially when I don't always completely understand what's going on. Either I'm bored out of my skull, or I'm irritated that I don't understand a concept, or both. Bah!

And now, for some reason I can't in the foggiest fathom, my back hurts. This morning, it was fine, then I go downstairs, sit down for a few minutes, then I get bcak up and voila! Instant searing pains in the back. Gee thanks mr. back, I didn't think I had enough problems today, thanks ever so much.

My condolences

These tragic events occur and thre is nothing that can be done. I can only hope they had all made their peace.
