Camping Tomorrow

Fri, 24 May 2013 03:46:32 -0400

So, tomorrow is the annual time when I can’t go on tumblr because I’ll be in the middle of the woods. It also marks me getting close to the time when I first made my tumblr, although I don’t remember the exact day that was. two years. And when I think back on it, they’ve been a fairly eventful two years. College, crushes, loss, new friends, new experiences… if feels like this has all happened over a time period much longer than two years. Maybe my sense of scale is out of whack though, I don’t know.

Getting Ready To Camp

Thu, 23 May 2013 04:16:50 -0400

So in a few days I’ll be going on the annual camping trip. I’m really excited for it, in part because it recalls so many memories of me finding myself but also the potential for all sorts of new memories.

Lone Diner

Wed, 22 May 2013 03:50:06 -0400

I was tasked with getting my own dinner tonight, and so I decided to go to a diner. Obviously not the one that was so near and dear to my heart, as that one is now closed. I actually kind of found the experience sort of sad. It wasn’t the diner where I had had so many memories. I couldn’t look at a table and say, “That’s where I got milkshakes after prom,” or, “This is where we ate just before my friend moved away, and this over here is where we ate the first day she came back to visit.” This diner was empty of all of that, it was just me, a patty melt, and a bunch of stories happening all around me that I wasn’t a part of.

Of course, I’ll make my own memories there, or maybe in the diner that will take the place of the old one, whenever the hell that finally opens up.

Lazy Summer

Tue, 21 May 2013 04:53:37 -0400

Didn’t really do anything today either. Tomorrow I have work though, so I guess that’ll be productive. Plus I have to get myself dinner. Maybe I’ll go to a diner?

Geocaches

Mon, 20 May 2013 05:37:11 -0400

Alright, so, today I hung out with a couple of friends and we geocached. We actually found a ton, and they were easy to find. It’s weird because now I know the location of several geocaches that are just sitting around all over my town. I think the total count in our area just from this one guy is like 39, but we didn’t even go looking for that many.

Anyway, after that we hung out behind a local reception hall where one of my friends works (he was with us so it was alright.) All in all it was a good day.

Quiet Days

Sun, 19 May 2013 04:22:13 -0400

I really didn’t do much of anything today, which is… nice, really. I saw Iron Man 3, that’s about it. I’ll be going camping soon, definitely excited about that. But yeah, definitely a do-nothing day.

Pop Shop and Windows

Sat, 18 May 2013 02:20:56 -0400

So today was my first day back from work. It went relatively smoothly, only one crazy lady but I understood why she was upset. It wasn’t our fault, Verizon was lazy and miscounted the things they received, but it wasn’t her fault either so I did sor tof feel bad for her, not that I could really help.

After work I went to the pop shop with some friends, had some good food, and then we hung out at a friends house after I got lost on the highway a little.

Welcome Home

Fri, 17 May 2013 04:28:36 -0400

Today was pretty lazy; woke up, shaved, got a haircut in preparation for work tomorrow.

I also went to a friend’s house and there were a few people there, we just talked and had a good time. It was nice, this was the sort of night I missed.

Summer Again

Thu, 16 May 2013 05:12:26 -0400

So this morning I presented my animation. Everything went fairly well, I mean it wasn’t the best film there but it was the best animation and there were a few films that were so awful it was embarrassing. You know how after a film or something everyone claps or whatever? One girl had a film so bad no one even clapped.

Anyway, I’m home now, and I’m just glad to be back. I really want to see all of my friends again.

Twenty Minute Final

Wed, 15 May 2013 01:45:34 -0400

So the only thing I had to do today was take a final, and it only lasted 20 minutes. So today was pretty much the first stress free day I’ve had in a long time. It felt nice. Tomorrow is my last day at NJIT. I’m just glad to be going home, this summer should prove to be amazing.

Thunder

Tue, 14 May 2013 04:40:32 -0400

I just finished my animation. I still have my IT project left, but I have an extension on that, so I have room to breathe. They only thing elft before me now before I return home is my astronomy final. I feel like Frodo after destroyed the ring. It’s gone, it’s done. Yes, Mr. Martin, it’s over now.

Almost There

Mon, 13 May 2013 05:22:34 -0400

Only 10 seconds left to go in my animation!!! And they should be an easy 10 seconds to make!!! Oh man, I can see the light at the end of tunnel!!! I shouldn’t get ahead of myself but actually being able to finish this project after being so stressed about it is the greatest feeling in the world.

Slow and Steady

Sun, 12 May 2013 06:10:20 -0400

Well, I got my history take-home final done today, and since I have the extension on IT that means all I need to worry about right now is my animation, and thank God I’m actually a little tiny bit ahead of schedule, I have only the slightest bit of breathing room. I still feel the pressure though, this week has been exhausting, both mentally and physically.

A Good Day At Last

Sat, 11 May 2013 07:09:32 -0400

Today was amazing for two reasons:

I got the extension I needed for my IT project because that professor adores me, I literally have all summer to work on it.

Also, I completed my objective of 120 frames for today. In fact, I got 140 or so frames, plus the couple I did on that one day I did a few extra. I’m ahead of schedule and now 50% done my project.

I Just Don't Know

Fri, 10 May 2013 02:57:52 -0400

I think I’m going to ask for an extension for my IT project. I was hoping to just get it done today but I was only able to get maybe like 10% of it done, and that’s after a full day of working! I’m fucking screwed guys. The stress is making me feel physically sick. This is awful.

So It Begins

Thu, 09 May 2013 03:40:59 -0400

I got another 3 seconds of my animation done, I could have gotten more but I spent time today studying for my Structures Final as well as sleeping. Ugh… not looking forward to these finals, I feel like I don’t really know anything. This whole semester has been strange. At least all of these huge projects are starting to give me a better work ethic, goodness knows I’ll need it for studio next semester.

I’d wanted to go home saturday and visit friends and meet up with my girlfriend, but with all of these projects I’m not going to be able to.

Objectives

Wed, 08 May 2013 05:45:35 -0400

Well, I finally reached my goal for today’s work, at 5:45 in the morning… I now have 11 seconds of my animation, which I guess makes me feel a little better. 11 being a lot of seconds, even though I’m still 49 seconds short. So I need to spend the next week doing that, and working on my IT project, and history papers.

God help me.

Finally Productive

Tue, 07 May 2013 04:08:24 -0400

I am really freaked out by the amount of work ahead of me. Like, super freaked out. I don’t know how I’ll be able to get everything done in time, and everything has super high priority.

At least today I was productive. I now have just under 4 seconds of my animation done. Too bad it’s a minute long…

Some Work

Mon, 06 May 2013 02:29:52 -0400

Alright, so, I got a paper out of the way, that’s something. I felt awful this morning, likely a result of yesterdays celebrations. I should drink more water…

Oh Jeez Procrastination

Sun, 05 May 2013 05:49:16 -0400

Oh man, I procrastinated so much today, it’s awful, which means tomorrow will be awful because I have to get work done for monday. At least I got my cinco de mayo partying out of the way today?
