Emptiness
Another day at work. Sweat. Tiring work. Exhaustion. My only relief are the paycheck and that my normally temperamental machine functioned well, nay, flawlessly. Almost no sleep takes its toll. Damn hot humid weather. Met a few new students… actually, they attended the same high school as me. Managed to talk to Kat from work.…

Follow the Green Sprites, Man.
Yay! Another day ended. No luck with meeting up with Kat, but then again today was a wet, slushy, and mushy day for a walk. Even in an enclosed mall. Again, I played the part of house-son (a.k.a. a son who gets all the jobs of a housewife, with none of the rewards). Wee! Domenic,…

Delirious Joy
Had my first exam today. Just as I predicted a practical cakewalk. Funny for a course I spend 0 hours studying for too… The questions were simple enough, a bit of guessing but overall great! I am so happy that this course is over. So two more exams to follow. Data structures… (youch!) and systems…

Hanging in the Balance
What a day… rainy, and very trying with most of the family sick… sigh… Tomorrow is my first exam of this semester. Looks fairly straightforward, multiple choice + 2 scenarios, all for a UI Design course. Funny how the course itself seems to be a mixture of common sense and corporate marketing lingo… (Translation: bs).…
