Went to the gym today. I can really feel the effect of those protein shakes: just the energy boost makes it worth it for me!

Got home. Practiced something called the Koto technique on the guitar: it's an emulation of a Japanese string instrument. Pretty cool stuff!

Read in my book on autism: interesting, even though the author is a really bad...

Went to the city to return a book to the library + went to the gym. Had that protein shake; really upped my energy too!

Practiced my sweep picking again on the guitar. I think I'm getting the hang of...

Slept for 13+ hours again...

Went to the gym and had a good workout. They have protein shakes there, and I'm think I'm gonna start drinking them. See, if I can add some muscle and get rid of this skinny body.

Filled up my car with gas: cost less that I thought it would.

Practiced my sweep picking on the guitar again; good stuff!

Worked on my...

Slept for 13 hours again last night. It's the holidays, so it isn't that bad.

Went to the city today to do some more research for my Master's Thesis. Rented out Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. I'm using the concept of 'language games' in my Thesis. Also photo-copied stuff on post-modernism.

Cleaned...

Slept for 12 hours last night. Woke up, feeling good.

Practice my sweep picking on the guitar. Went well.

Read my book on autism: almost finished!

Working on my Master's Thesis right now: 16,150 words so far. 2,850 to go!

Feeling god, even though I'm a little bothered by the intrusive thoughts.

Slept for 12 hours again last night. Oh well, I'm sure it'll improve again. Ups and downs, right?

Went to the city to return that book to the uni library. Picked up Consider the Lobster by David Foster Wallace, and ordered a thesis from the library. Should be coming in any day now. Maybe there will be some interesting info in both those...

More good news: only slept for 10 and a half hours last night! I don't even feel tired.

Therapy went well. I learned a lot of new things about autism and myself + therapist gave me a book to read: A Real Person by Gunilla Gerland. It's a memoir about her struggle with autism. Sounds really interesting. I started reading it as soon as I...

I had a hearty breakfast: 2 bowls of cereal and one sandwich. Looks like my appetite is picking up too! btw, I'm eating six meals a day now 'cos I want to add weight. I know many would consider me lucky...
