Last Time Before the New Year

Yesternight ended the last time I will be doing homework in the lounge area of Cook. Thank you, Taylor. Thank you, Hans. Thank you, Stephen. For an interesting semester, to say the least.

Today is the last day of class for me. I don't feel particularly excited about it, but it isn't particularly sad to think about either. In any case, let the festivities begin with Slope Day 2009 [in the rain and thunderstorm]. Soon, it will be time to take life by the horns again. But for now, there is this raging bull (call it "Finals") and it is best to cleanly get out of its way.

I realize I haven't been posting as frequently as I have been in the recent past, but then I wouldn't like to take blame that work and life got in the way of things. Even Engineerography.com has been reduced in production somewhat. I expect to pick this up soon ... this summer ... while at work.

One Down, One to Go

We just completed our first final exam of the summer (for System Dynamics). We have a final for Fluid Mechanics tomorrow which I have to seriously study for. Regardless of how I did or will do tomorrow on the exams, I am just glad that is all over soon.

I will be heading home tomorrow via Shortline. (I HATE buses.) I am not sure when I will depart, but it will most likely be very late. The final begins at 9:00 am tomorrow, and I should be done by 11:00 am. I have some last second things to take care of though; I have to clean and secure my room, and be all ready to start class again once I get back. I should be home by Saturday morning, I hope.

My schedule is like this: Friday, June 27 to home, and I will be coming back to school on Sunday, July 6. I hope to see many old friends since I have been away for so long. Sadly, this will be my only chance to be home this entire summer.

Behind in Work Already

Tomorrow starts the first day of Coop classes, having just had my last final last Wednesday. It just never ends (and I don't really want it to). Growing up sucks.

So far, I have promised to post a bunch of entries I have in the queue. And I have promised to get my photos processed and online really soon. But because most of my resources are still packed in the boxes and bags (and I do not intend to unpack just to repack at the end of next week), there is little that I can do.

... I lied. I have backed up copies of a few older albums on the iPod. I'll get to it when I have time, or when I am bored. I promise!

It is weird getting ready for the first day of class again. Packing up my things and getting ready a new folder and notebook for the semester feels weird, especially doing so for the summer. It should be interesting though; it should be fun.

Living Quarters

I have officially left my dorm room in Cascadilla and have moved into the house I will be staying at from May 17 to May 31. Then I will be moving again and living in a new place from June 1 to August 19.

I do not feel like unpacking because it will all be repacked and moved in two weeks. As a result, I don't feel like doing anything at all right now. My parents came up to help me move and bring about 40% of my things back home. We had an expensive lunch at Hai-Hong. They just left about a half hour ago.

This is the state of my room having nothing unpacked or cleaned with only the refrigerator currently plugged in and operational.
