i'm glad the job is being good to you! always great to hear :)

go go study!! i guess you've had to settle into your new job so now you can ease back into it? just don't be like me and leave huge few-month-gaps in between study, haha. i wish i could learn through flashcards too orz

and re: eerie, i've said before but having a challenge is always fun. sure it's harder to get ideas but more thinking often means more stretching of the imagination which can never hurt!
