I had my final tonight. I did the best that I could, and now I will await my final grade. That is a big relief, it was a challenging class and combined with Isilon it was more work then I originally expected. In retrospect, however, I realize several ways in which I could have made the load easier on myself and I think I would have done a better job on both fronts… next time – and yes, there will be a next time.
My boss told me that the schedule was a little agressive and he wished he had been in on the decision making process sooner… in other words, “we had hoped you could have done it in the time we suggested but it is understandable that you did not.” I have been given two more weeks. With my final today, I will have no other distractions (besides the ones I invent) and I intend on making this deadline.
It is a very beautiful day but too hot for my tastes. 90 degrees! I have had difficulty studying and probably should have gone to work where it is air conditioned. ;P Hopefully I’ll hear back from the TA and meet with him soon to answer my questions.
ahhh. i have a really busy weekend ahead of me. in fact, i don’t really see much let up until next weekend. so tonight i am doing nothing. well. i am compiling linux kernel version 2.5. of course. now that i don’t have to do homework on my computer i can destabilize it. hehe
I’ve taken a break from my obligations to … rearrange my room! I bought a 19" monitor for 20 bucks today (a great deal) and so I had to completely rearrange my room so that I can use it. I’ve made myself a little office in the corner and so far I like it. No need to mention the disaster outside the office … ;P
