I sit here in my cosy room like a little hermit wrapped up in my hoodie, drinking coke to keep up the concentration for coding my dissertation program (coke works! i mean look im not loosing concentration and wondering off to different parts of the web to write blogs or anything...). Its been a while since ive done what ive coined 'cloistered coding' or 'cloco' for short which can also mean 'coding loco'. Shut myself away from my flat mates, crank up the tunes and type type type, and get error after, error after error...

Its a constant war between man and machine, unfortunatly its the man whos incapable of controlling the machine which makes the war that much bitter. In this relentless battle its often the case where after hours of typing i find that i have got absoloutly no where with the program and decide to calm my thoughts with a brew. However this is where cloco breaks the barrier of normal coding know how and sytheticly stimulates the mind with high caffiene substances to get the coder resembling an ultra quick touch typing, trigger happy, foot twitching maniac.

This is why being cloistered away is essential when going cloco - any attempts to contact with the outside world may result in fights, talking jibberish, heavy sedation and the purchasing of random stuff such as frozen pies from your local corner shop.

Once ive been cloco, ive often found that, actually, ive still... got no futher with my program but just got there quicker whilst tapping my foot to some loud music.

But still its fun and thats the best part, cloco or nocloco, as long as your havin fun and have some excellent music to code to. Oh and a cup of tea for emergencys and youll be fine!

Right back to it, lets crank up the volume, pop on some more idlewild and get ready to type some jibberish
