The nitty and the gritty

It's over, finally. The projects are sent over, and I can get down to the nitty-gritty of intense revision. RPIS should have already reached London; SE on the other hand, won't even be shipped out till Monday. Sigh. Just had it sent in last night, after which I went to catch Iron Man. Not too bad a movie, love the effects. Back to SE, just hope I can pass. Guess I'll have to much work harder on the revision for the paper, which I've only allocated 4 or 5 days' worth. Not realy a lot of time, but owing to circumstances, it'll have to do. Just hope I won't have to pull any more all-nighters; it's really tiring and draining and I get very groggy.

Really have to pray for a miracle now, for my revision. 12 or 14 days for OT and psychology, almost from square 1, when I could have at least 3 weeks each. It's time to pull in 12 hour shifts.

Something somone fictional always says...

Missed deadline

Still incomplete. After 4 straight days of working on it, with only 14 hours of sleep (excluding time spent sleeping while on commute) since Sunday night, I still have not finished it. Crap... Programming was the part I guess. Got stuck on it for quite a bit, while I was refreshing my memory and trying to make sense of code I did 6 years ago. Now still in testing phase. But at least almost done with white box and gonna move on to black box by 4am (I hope).

Looks like it's gonna be another all nighter. Place's rather quiet tonite, with the usual sleepy heads in the sofas and people who can't get enough of the free Internet sitting on the terminals here. And me, at my usual table and seat typing this down. Just hope I can meet the deadline of uploading by 12 midnight London time. Printed copy, on the other hand, is another matter. Need to find a place to print (Gary's come to mind), head back to Queensway to bind, and find the nearest post office to ship it off. Then see how things go. May find a place to crash, or a place to study. Sigh.. I'm really tired. Am starting to lose track of the hours and days. And there's still the prospect of revision for 3 papers to go.
