⇒ project planning

due this sat 6th!

what am i thinking of? well i don't want to do a parallel universe story because it's too impossible--it's close but since it never happened, it never will (at the given point in human history again). So I've decided on an abstract time story--kind of like the way Star Wars is a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..., yet people still mistake it for futurism. I've been looking at alternate forms of technology, but there only seem to be 3 major forms of sci-fi novella: cyber, bio and steam. And that's not considering paradise/doomsday scenarios which should have befallen our successors, whether they be robo-uprising, nuclear holocaust, alien annihilation or exhaustion of resources; I'm trying to think of something that hasn't been done before, or at the very least done in that way.

Anyhow, here's some of the research I've been doing.

gymmed yesterday. overall disappointed with performance. but i did manage to bench 60 a couple of times. that's among the handful of other times i've ever done it. nice...swim felt good...poor performance, but the water felt cool, not cold.
