Something you shouldn’t do with your life

is exactly what I am doing.

After having spent most of my Saturday off on the net searching for a new pair of headphones, I have found the ones. Now, this might sound as if I wasnt doing anything with my life, and it would really be true.

Revision time is a tough time when each one of us hides in our own bubble and spend our free time doing different things. I have refused to take my suitcase to where it belongs still and it is sitting right next to me trying to remind me of the times to come. Also, the post-its around my windows are telling me to do work as it is good for me. I have chosen to check Twitter, Facebook and any other site till the need to do work is as high as my feeling of guilt.

For the moment just wanted to share this with the outside world. I do hope you are still out there, as I can see everything just the same from my room, but you never know these days.

Doctor Faustus (teeny review)

Doctor Faustus, the character, conceptualizes a society trapped in between Christian values and the advances of Science (or the traditional Renaissance interest in knowledge). Marlowe, in an attempt to exemplify the “evils” of both, streched the two trends to their own limits. In one case we are presented the devil himself, and on the other case total obssession in regards to knowledge and advancement (the first step to get to a more modern Frankestein). What is most interesting, though, is the reason why an atheist would choose to call the devil and when confronting him he would still consider going a further. Seeing the devil did not overcome his haughtiness and his obssession regained power. The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus is overall a race to maximize the potential of those two worlds with no winners but only losers.
