A Breather

Hi! I'd like to believe I'm still alive.

Near semester end... stuff happened. A lot... and yet it wasn't a lot, really.

But I can say this much: I'M EXHAUSTED.
I'm running on 3 hours right now and my red bull effect has just wore off so I'm really feeling it. Energy draining @20hp/tick.

The past week consisted of writing up a RFP response, an interview report, a 20-pager essay--which all took about 3 or so days each--and finally the 3rd stage of my major project. Hermit week is over!

No school vs School (it's been cleaned up a bit already).

The RFP was just number frustration.


I had to interview my interview guy for a second time because our first meet wasn't long enough. I really didn't want to meet a second time because my laptop's out of commission (as I already mentioned) so I only had one fully charged battery left just in case I had to retrieve anything from there. BUT he was doing ME the favour so sucked it up. The information I got was valuable though, especially for myself, but it was nothing really applicable to the rest of the class so I had to fill it in most with what I already know. A case of good BS.

The essay was tragic. Let's not speak of it again.

When Tuesday rolled around, I didn't get a chance to present ANYTHING. That was upsetting; I was hoping to get the presentations out of the way but now they're all pushed to next week. HAET PRESENTATIONS.

I also seem to eat a lot when I'm under stress. Whenever I took a break, I went straight to the kitchen for something. Since my other break options (video gamesssaaaa, anime) were out of the question, eating(?) was my only choice. Cream cheese was my best friend.

Speaking of video games, I've been video game FREE for THIRTEEN DAYS NOW. I will go and experience again how awesome it is to get my ass kicked in Dragon Age right after this.

I have over 900 unread RSS posts and I consider myself a casual RSSer as I only follow a few websites. It will take a bit of time.

So I left my phone at school yesterday but I was swamped with completing the next stage of my major project so I left it where it was. The security guard (aka. The Transporter) was smart enough to know how to go through my phone and call my house to leave me a message on my answering machine. I also found out that I cannot live without my phone. My phone's alarm clock that is. I failed to wake up today because I did not have it with me.

Blahblah I have a conference room presentation for my major project in two weeks. UGH. WHY.

So I've been dreaming about Christmas and all the wonderful free time I'll have. And so here's some for the to-do list:
- finish reading my bro's Watchmen comic book so I can watch the movie already
- *watch* the Watchmen movie
- get a haircut
- read my manga backlog (both offline/online)
- ugh no one vacuums if I don't do it.
- Dragon Age raaaaaage
- preorder my LE PSP
- marathon another anime?
- something else I haven't thought of yet.

2 presentations, 2 more individual projects, one class project and tweaking major project+conf. presentation left to go. Two more weeks...!
