# WINDING DOWN (i was never wound up in the first place) ---------- 29-05-2024 writing this while i wait for something to flash... since exams are done, ive been winding down (i think americans would call these your midterms) which means ive been playing with code and os's though, it didnt really seems like i was very wound up for the exams in the first place, which is a weird feeling, considering how important these exams should have been. but i didnt feel that panic(?) i usually do before tests this time around. which you know, its a good thing! i also didnt do bad (i did pretty good in fact) in these exams, but like. where did the stress go but im not one to complain about that. since its over, ive been working on press and things, and its fun. ive been experimenting with linux distros, and im a little interested in setting up a server (for real this time). the current road map is like get a new distro (not arch) >> get telnet working properly >> try to communicate to my other computer and its cool and fun. its got me thinking about technology too. you know, technology sometimes FEELS like an art. by learning and using it, you are able to shape the world around you and create new things. its great, but imagine this in everyones hands. what a wonderful world it would be. it doesnt even have to be fancy stuff, but everyone even had like the barest of knowledge on this stuff, imagine the things we could make. its beautiful
