Busy week
I haven't been on AIM or Utopia or #HoB since Sunday so here's why. Im writing this right now because I've had 6 hours of sleep total for 84 hours of awake time so far and it may be fun to see how much my writing has deteriorated like after pulling all nighters 3 days in a row.
Sunday: S-ranked Ready Steady Go on Cheer Girls mode. Thought that was pretty hard. I had no idea the week was about to get harder.
Monday:
Find out due to clerical error, I'm not on mailing list for CS assignments. Discovered assignment was posted on this mailing list. Discovered I had 1 hour deadline to write a Java program that we were supposed to work on for 4 days. Wrote program in 58 minutes and submitted. SOMEHOW it compiled correctly.
Receive email notification for job interview on Wednesday, realize it was at the worst possible time DIRECTLY after Operations Management midterm.
Pull all nighter to read 6 chapters for Business Law.
Tuesday
Financial Information Systems midterm. - Did fairly well, I think.
Cram 2 hour nap between morning and afternoon class.
Realize it was a good thing I read those chapters for Business Law because I was the first person called on.
Pull all nighter to prepare for OM midterm, and also study for job interview.
Wednesday:
Operations Management midterm - Walked to and attended class in full corporate suit & tie, as there would be no time to change after midterm. Completely bombed. Might drop class if score is in low 70s.
Job interview with 5 people consecutively for 2.5 hours. Incorrectly defined duration of a bond. Messed up 2 out of 6 brainteasers given. Assumed self failure and regretted dividing time between studying for midterm and preparing for interview.
Cram in 4 hour afternoon nap, then pull all nighter for Global Econ midterm.
Thursday:
Realize all nighter was only enough to reread all chapters covered in textbook but still didn't start the 200 page supplement. Attempted to cram 200 pages in 30 minutes with extreme speed reading technique. I got to page 43 :(
Global Economics midterm - LUCKILY there was only one question on the supplement reading which asked about parts I had read. I think I got everything except a 4 point question on "sudden damage" so drew a detailed picture of a guy getting his teeth knocked out by a sucker punch.
Business law professor stuck with me again. Now it's really good I did that reading.
Get called from firm I interviewed with, job offered with contract in the mail. Suddenly sacrificing OM midterm feels totally worth it.
Attempt to wind down by watching Sky Girls. Realize it only made things worse as I had to struggle with pro of Itou Shizuka in a lead role vs. con of OVA sucking badly. I think she realized too because her acting was kind of bland at times (BUT SHE SOUNDS SO GOOD!!!).
Plans for Friday:
Repay a week of sleep debt.
Watch Lovedol, Otoboku, Happiness, Sumomomo, Galaxy Angel 2
Write opinion on Lovedol.
