Bloody homeworks

The reason for the "bloody" expression is that I watched a Monty Python special this week (fabulous show). I have to watch again some of their movies, I think the holy grail is next on my list.

Anyway, I have been thinking about to avoid spending a lot of time in my homework this semester, and to concentrate in the research, to see if I can finish this bloody phd sometime. These last weeks I gave it a try. It doesn't feel too good, sadly. When I neglect to do some exercise because I don't want to think hard, I end up with the confirmation that I'm stupid. And although I really believe that I'm not intelligent, I don't want to see it written in paper with the form of a "B". But at the end, does it really worth to spend a lot of effort in the courses to pass with "A"?. Let's see if I can manage to pass a course with "B", let's see if that leaves more time for my research work, and let's see what I think about myself after that. An interesting experiment... But I'm afraid of the result.

House, M.D.

And now, for something different, not so introspective... I love the TV show "House". I love to see how miserable (in his own words) the character is. I really like how he hurt himself. One of his friends (actually, I think the only one) told him something like "You think that being miserable puts you above the rest of the people, but it just makes you miserable". Great, just fucking great. I think House knows that, and that makes the dialog even greater. Recommended.
