I know I've been slacking a lot with my posts. Yes yes yes, I admit it. Confessions are good for one's soul. I guess that since the semester is coming to a close, I've been bogged down with stuff one way or the other that in my free time, I use it to de-stress rather than to blog. Sorry to all my readers...Also, I've been feeling rather de-sensitized about things. My grades are not where I want them to be but I don't seem to care that much anymore. Maybe I need a break. Seriously.
Oh, I don't think I wrote this but I actually got a job on-campus as Residence Conference Assistant. I get a place to stay and get paid as well. It's better than not finding anything I suppose. I was pretty surprised I got the job because the Office of Resident life apparently received a lot of applications. Plus, I had to go for an interview.
I can't wait till summer and fall. Despite the fact that I said I needed a break, I'm actually looking forward to my Fall classes. Am taking some classes that I think would be interesting so yeah! And...if my schedule doesn't change, it also means that I don't have anything on Friday. Sweet! Blogging past midnight at the library probably means that I'm tired and refuse to continue studying. I think that is the case. My work never ends!
This is my space. My rantings, ravings and musings about life, love, people and the man. This is where I can wholly express myself without too many people judging me and what I write. I write at the spur of the moment, when I feel most. Music is an important part of my life so check out the songs at the side bar.

Hey, don't worry about it... You should be concerned if you spend TOO much time updating the blog instead of other things. Besides, absence makes the heart grow fonder! Or something to that effect.
And about what you said.. I think I know what you mean. I burned out a few weeks back, a lot of work and assignments (I'm doing 19 credit hours) and a couple of personal problems just all came together at the same time, and I just snapped, I guess. I just lay on my bed with my blanket pulled over my head for one whole day - didn't go to class, didn't go eat, nothing... I just didn't want to do anything. Just stopped caring about a lot of things...
I guess that happens to some, if not most people. Especially if you're overworked, I guess. I'll be going home in a couple of weeks though. I now wish I am staying here for summer, but plans have been made and I can't change them. Still, it should be pretty fun, go home, meet my family... My sister is coming back from Japan as well, I haven't seen her in almost a year. It's my mom's 50th birthday, so both her children are coming back from two ends of the world :) Besides, I'm conducting a couple of motivational courses for students (should earn enough to buy me a car after I come back here, yay!) and I have recently discovered that World Religion in ADP is transferable as an UPPER-level humanities course here. Isn't that great? So I'm going home and doing World Religion at ADP. Other than that, well, a lot of relaxing and slacking off is in order. After I come back, I will have to dive straight into coursework, I'm taking 8 classes next semester, all of them are Aerospace Engineering courses. Aerodynamics, Space Mechanics, aircraft structures, material mechanics, eg. So next semester is going to be a bit of a killer, therefore it's probably a good thing I get to relax by going home. Well, hopefully relax. I wouldn't be going home for the next three years after this though, the extra one year as my OPT. Staying one extra semester because I'm doing two minors - one in Mathematics, and another in Space Studies.
But I digress.
Actually, I don't think I was going anywhere with it. So...
I think I might just be too preoccupied with everything that is going on. It doesn't help that I have tons of work to do and fun stuff are coming up like Street Painting (tmr) and Relays etc. I'm waiting for the summer too. My job will be pretty boring though but who cares! I'll have tons of time to slack off in front of the computer and get paid to do that. Heh!
Aww...man! 19 credits this semester? I'm doing 18 and at times it feels like less but now, it feels like 20! Next semester, I'm still deciding if I should take 4 or 5 classes, varying between 16 or 18 credits. I'm tempted to give myself a slower paced semester but then again...it might be a bad idea. Dilemma!
You're insane Mugi...that's all I have to say. A double major is bad enough...
Well, 'manda, I am a rocket scientist. This is what I do :)
I've just completed my research paper on the feasibility of space elevators... it was pretty interesting! My paper was 300% of the page requirement for the paper :P I wanted to do it right, I guess. It was pretty interesting research, I'm contemplating building a space elevator as my senior design project... Of course not the full model, but I want to see if I can perfect their laser power beaming model :) Should be fun.
You know, I was actually thinking of doing yet another minor, until I realised that is simply too much :) Stuff I'm doing now is pretty difficult, but I'm... well, trying to do the best I could anyway. And so should you! Kinda just throw out all expectations and just get down there, and do the best you could :(
It's the weekend, so try to relax... Last night was pretty cool, I went to my Japanese friend's apartment, he cooked dinner for us.. he cooked for 5 hours straight, we got like 7-8 dishes.. It was awesome. And then they drank a little bit (I didn't drink) and then I came back to dorm... My friend was wasted, so we decided to walk to Dennys, about four of us... came back at 5am, played Counter-Strike for an hour or so, and then went to sleep..
So that's what you should do to relax :) Kill some people, shoot 'em in the head. Seriously, getting major headshots are really fun, and relaxing... CS is fun :)
