Today I have worked on my retake, played wordfeud, skyped my cousin and my friend Margit and watched series. Oh, and I also changed my blogdesign. What do you guys think?:-)
Margit showed me this great music that I have to share with you guys. Enjoy! And have a nice sunday.
Cheers, MayPaj.
Hey!
Sorry I have not written in a while. Just been too busy with life aka. assignments, school and sickness. Hurray!
Yesterday I got the greatest deal ever! I gave Sam oatmeal, she bought me falafel! After living on studen “gourmet” food (pasta!) for almost a month it was really good with a change! Yummy yummy!
Anyways. Today I finally finished my research proposal in Media Theories. OMG that was a relief! Writing 2500 words about what you wanna write 6500 word about in your final assignment in the course is a not easy, and not to motivating at times…bah. Even though the topic is interesting. I´ve chosen to write about the relationship between human and technology in our society today in relation to Vilém Flussers “urban city” and Gilles Deleuze´s “society of control”. Super exciting topic, but the more I read but the more I read, the more paranoid I get to live in the world we live in today.
Where Google for example monitors you and gathering gather information from every single trace you leave online so that they can use them to see what the human is concerned about and what our ‘technological needs” are. Then they can sell this information to the big companies that make technology so they know how to develop the technological gadgets that cover our “technological needs”. The companies make a lot of money, but also influence how we look at the world, communicate with others and through which gadgets we do this. Aaaaa. See why I am getting a bit paranoid? They are probably ‘re watching me right now. Jikes!
Oh well, right now I am being a good studenta nd reading for tomorrows lecture. But it is soon bedtime since I have a 9 am! Yawn…
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
Ahhh, assignment is delivered, group meetings are finished, so now it is time for full chillaxasion!I ordered a asian noodle- soup with seaweed, fish-bolls and fried veggies and shrimp from Issa Deli through Just-Eat.nl. And it is jummy! Plus I also got four bits of free sushi ❤ dont know why but its totally cool by me!
I am now gonna watch series. This thursday just turned out perfect!
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
Hey!
Today I´ve been quite lazy, so just started on my Media Theory assignment for tomorrow.
Wish me luck!
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
WOW! I have now been reading a five pages long text about “Societies of control” and ended up with this HUGE conceptmap ( I don´t think I am so good at this. haha). And now I am gonna read a 20 pages long text about “protocol, control and networks” and put that as well in my conceptmap. It´s gonna be a mess!
Wish me luck!
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
So as mentioned before I get super creative whenever I don´t want to study. So I made a cartoon about my student life is in general here in Amsterdam.
Heres it goes:
LOL. What do yah guys think? Haha.
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
Good morning to yah all!
Just woke up after sleeping for over 12 hours. LOL. Which means that autumn is definitely here. And it effects my energy levels so bad 😦 I need to go and grill myself in a tanner soon just to get some vitamin D and hopefully some energy! haha.
Anyways. Today´s plan is to go shopping for food since I got nothing left here at home. The list is pretty long!
And then I am gonna drink coffee. LOADS of coffee. Cause I have an assignment for sunday that I have to start on today and I need some brain-energy! I´ve already started my coffee-marathon. And it works pretty good!
BEFORE: Oh, friday-morning I hate you!
BUT: Hey, what´s this! Oh, you amazing coffee! I love you!
THEN: Okay, get ready energy! Cause here I come!
THEN: Glugg, glugg, glugg!
THEN:Yum, yum, glugg, glugg, glugg, glugg!Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, glugg, glugg!
AFTER: Wooooojah! I ❤ you coffee!

Over and ooooouuuuut! Cheers, May-super-woman-paj!
I finally finished my second assignment in “Media theory”!So now I am as happy as can be (as you can see):
I even invented my own “I-am-so-happy-I-am-finished-with-cybernetics-dance”. It´s pretty awesome and goes like this:
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.

Puhaaaa! The gray has worked very hard to understand the basic Cybernetics and the categories I listed earlier, but now I am finally getting a grip on it, so I feel quite smart for the first time in a long while. Hurray! Haha. 
My blood sugar and the over zealous heart rhythm has finally calmed down. Puh! No more candy for a while I think. It felt like I almost had a hart-attack earlier. LOL. Oh, well. I better get back to studying, but first I have one more song for you guys. Hope you enjoy it!
Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.
Amsterdam, baby!
