WTF is Workstation 9?!
Encouraged by the two comments and three views of my blog, by three friends close to me, I have decided to be regular with my blogging. Firstly, let me clarify, what "workstation 9" is..
It's my little private space, my world, where as a research scholar, I "will" at some point be doing some original research. Currently though I am exploring all the music I missed out on during the past two weeks. I have taken a fancy to a lot of the new alternative bands like the raconteurs, finger eleven, fort minor(I'm wary of this band cause it seems to have a little hip-hop influence..and i hate all things associated with hip-hop) etc.
Coming back to Ws-9, I find it fascinating, how often I have these preconcieved notions, which I am so convinced about. For example, I always thought, a cubicle would be the worst torture a person could be put through..akin to a prison. The boredom, the mundane nature of the work associated with a cubicle made me think that worker efficiency may suffer becoz of it. Now that I am in one, I realize, how efficient this thing is. Conserves space, provides you with required amount of privacy, and a set of head phones on your head implies an added amount of privacy.
Well atleast it's better than the 'alive and kickin' library this place has. It's actually considered cool here to go to the library, and when all the cool kids enter the library, library's are not cool anymore..think you get what I'm trying to get at. Basically, the place is too alive to be a library!
I got my medical test done the other day, and my BP came to 110/70. That's better than normal I think. I was fairly impressed.
