12/02/2004: "learn-economics"

As I was walking with a friend back into the library, we saw another friend standing still besides the door, holding a mobile phone to his ear, a patient yet resolute expression on his face. As he was completely silent, seemingly a prisoner of his interlocutor, the friend told him: "You're not saying anything?" I added: "Is that a girl on the phone?"

He hushed us: "It's my mother!" - and carried on "Nothing Mum, keep talking!"

Library learning is slowly turning me into a nerd - and the after-effects of months of pre-exam stasis are being felt by many here. For example, I'm greatly looking forward the highlight of the day, my daily game of Cannon (www.yoyota.ch), shooting at other friends posted in front of computers across the library. Try it, it's great fun!

This is learn-economics - or the art of motivating oneself to keep learning, to keep at it until it's all over!
