Long Time No See…

Sun, 20 Dec 2009 05:11:18 GMT

It’s been a while since I’ve last updated — it’s pretty much been a tweet archive around here! Hopefully that will change now that I’m on break and can get into a regular blogging habit. =)

Fall quarter was pretty much a bust, grade-wise. Very disappointed with my grades, but not entirely unexpected — I think I even phrased that the same as my tweet on the subject, haha. But yes, for all the effort I put into my classes, I can honestly say that I didn’t put enough effort into any one class to get anything worthwhile. =/ I didn’t even pass ARCE 302 (Structural Analysis) — well, I suppose D is done, but I think I need a C- for the minor. I’m still considering whether to retake it next quarter or wait until next fall.

My design-build studio went pretty well, if you consider getting along with your group going well, lol. I think my group was the only one that actually did get along — everyone else had problems (arguing, people not showing, people not working, etc). We didn’t win, but our group wasn’t aiming to win the competition in the first place, so it’s all good. I’ll be posting our work here soon, so look forward to it, haha.

And now, on a non-school related note, yesterday I had a be-lated birthday dinner at BJs. The food was pretty good and it was nice to see all these people I hadn’t seen in a while. Afterwards, we headed over to BoB’s house for a rousing game of Cranium — it’s more fun than it sounds. ^_~ My team won, so obviously that means we are the best. XP

Gotta go now, but I’ll try to get some book reviews up in the next couple of days, since I just finished reading some books. =)

Okay, seriously, I'm gonna start packing now, lol. #
Oh my, Semagic just popped up a reminder of my own birthday, hahah. #
Gonna shower…. Then probably clean up my room a little. Maybe. Possibly. LOL. XP #
So some fic I read a while ago just popped into my head… I wish I knew the name/author 'cause I have the urge to read it, lol. #
Gundam Wing, 1×2 w/ Duo throwing paper airplanes (LOVE NOTES!) trying to get them into Heero's window. Anyone know what I'm talking about? #
Man, that fic is gonna bug me until I find it. =/ I just keep remembering all the notes and how they never made it to Heero! #gw #ficsearch #
The rain makes me not want to get out of bed.. But I still have to return my key.. -_- #
@cindypon Yep. It'll probably still be raining when I head back down to SD in a bit (ugh rain traffic!). in reply to cindypon #
Okay, time to walk my ass up to campus and return my studio key.. Hopefully it won't start pouring on me (I have such bad luck w/ this!). #
And, like usual, the rain has gotten harder. #
Okay, I was halfway home, thinking I was safe when, of course, it starts pouring w/ the winds. x_x Seriously, I was FIVE MINUTES away! #
Now I am super soaked, like I've taken a shower w/ my clothes on. x_x #
I wonder when my ride will be ready to go… I hope it's soon. #
Hmm.. it's raining hard right now.. #
FIC REC: [HP - Harry/Draco] rurounihime – Nine Days Till Christmas http://bit.ly/6RgnF9 #
Still in SLO.. I hope my ride finishes whatever he's been doing soon, since I want to go home, damnit! #

FINALLY heading home. SD in 5.5 hours (probably more like 6-7 w/ traffic and rain and all..) #

I really should stop procrastinating and start studying… =/ #
@xcrazycathyx CATHYYYYY!~ XD #
It's raining.. Makes me not want to go to school and study with people… #
Off to school… #
I love rain, but I hate walking thru it. -_- #
So wet.. x_x It had to start raining when I started walking home earlier… #
After calculating my grade in ARCE 302, I have determined that I need to get a minimum of 66% on the final to get a 90% in the class. #hope #
Now, I just need to pray that there won't be SUPER TOUGH problems on the final. *is cautously optimist* #hopeisnotlost #
Telling @ch1b1dr4g0n to calculate my grade as well. Hopefully I didn't mess up, lol. #
Darn, I was adding the wrong number. =( #hopeislost #

It's cold. I'm tired. Also, I give up on doing ARCE hw. x_x I don't even care that I'm only halfway done. #
It's cold and I'm sleepy. =( #
Tired.. Class was boring (mostly nodded off throughout) and now my laptop has been taken over by group members. #
Almost done with project, thank goodness! Can't wait to finish, print, then go home and SLEEP. #
DONE! #
Haven't slept for 58 hours. WTF man, this is a record for me. Stupid projects… Now it's definitely time to sleep! #

Going home now to shower and eat.. And finish ARCE lab. No sleep tonight. #
So, after eating, procrastinating for 2.5 hours, and taking a shower, I have finally figured out how to make MATLAB quiz from wks ago work! #
Of course, it doesn't really matter since I failed original quiz and couldn't get make-up quiz to work, but at least I know what to do! #
Now, I can only hope that I have sufficient knowledge to pass that final in 20 minutes. x_x The no-sleep thing is working against me! =( #
ARCE 352 final… x_x #
I failed the MATLAB part of final. #
Interior rendering has been going on for 1 day and 24 minutes! Only at 73%! WTF MAN! THERE AREN'T EVEN ANY LIGHTS BESIDES THE SUN! x_x #
OMG the rendering that took forever is FINALLY FINISHED! 1 day and 7 hrs later! OMGGGGG! #
RENDERING: Interior of the Multi-Purpose building. Only took 1 DAY + 7 HRS to render. @_@ http://twitpic.com/s1dft #
Working hard, but at the rate I'm going, it feels more like hardly working. =/ Sleep-deprevation sucks. =( #

Stupid Revit.. Why lag so much when I just want to set up some rendering scenes? #
WOOT! Starting to RENDER, baby! (After HOURS upon HOURS of setting up only four views. Why am I so slow?) #
Thank goodness for that batch rendering script someone made! XD #
RT @ch1b1dr4g0n: "Batch rendering OR rendering, batch!"?! — HAHAHHA, AWESOME, BATCH! XD #
Gonna catch a couple hours of sleep, then back to work for me! #
My laptop I was rendering on turned off while I was asleep. Rendering didn't finish/save. SERIOUSLY?! >O *super PISSED* #
Starting to feel sick.. =( #
Today is a bad day. >O #
I feel so tired. =( But so much left to do! #
I'll post a rendering in a few min — the fruit of my torturous day of fighting with Revit rendering. (Oh Revit, why must you hate me so?) #
