Honors Finals
Posted on Wednesday, April 28th, 2004 at 5:15.
I just thought that I would do an update of my evening as it happens.
20:30 — Arrive in the 100 Beacon Street computer lab. I need to use a Windows-only application for my Honors project. This is the first application that has not been available for Mac OS X or had a comparable option for Mac OS X that I have encountered in three years.
21:45 — Drunken phone call from Bryan. Also talked to ‘Ney and Nolley.
23:30 — Finished project with only 30-minutes to spare before the lab closes. Off to buy lots of RedBull and maybe a healthy snack.
00:15 — Two RedBulls consumed. Beginning to edit final draft of Honors Paper. It’s going to be a looong night.
01:00 — Discovered John Kerry Is A Douche Bag But Im Voting For Him Anyway.com while researching for my paper. Killed 5 minutes.
01:15 — Being careful not to get a noise violation (as they are now actually given since 132 Beacon is a 24-hour quiet building and it’s finals time), I put on some Billy Joel. Memories of ice-cream…
01:30 — Realized that if I had stuck to my original paper topic of online blogging culture, this entry could have been primary source material. Decided that I will allow myself a 20-minute power nap when I finish editing my thesis.
01:45 — My Brita water bottle sprung a leak and needs a new filter.
01:56 — Taking power nap, then diving into deep postmodern theories to fill three pages.
02:21 — I’m back, downing another RedBull
04:28 — I have tried to sneeze about five times, but the Red Bull (as always) causes me to take shallow breaths and I haven’t been able to fully sneeze. That’s annoying. Just about as annoying as the slow progress I’m making on my paper.
05:14 — Three more pages to go. I’m going to catch another power nap while it is still dark.
Ha! I’m going to have to click on that link.
