been playin' around with my profile again, added some new stuff
been trying to reach one of the guys at honeywell (the company I'm working as an intern for this summer)...but this is the second day that I haven't gotten a response back.
...I might just have to push on with the paperwork tomorrow :/
one week and I'll be home for about 3 months.
Other accomplishments of the day:
passed cliffs of dover on expert (GH3)
passed number of the beast on expert
continued to fail at raining blood on expert
gotta organize my papers for each class and start studying tomorrow...but other than that I can foresee a lot of boredom this coming week.
To help manage that, I started to watch Shakugan no Shana
last anime club meeting was good, and there was pizza.
Anime + pizza = epic
and afterwards some of the regulars sat and played telephone (including me...though I'm not sure how I got dragged into it)

sooo~ tired
roommate just had to come back drunk and play halo at 2am @_@
I can run on 4 hours of sleep, but it doesn't mean that I like it.
I decided that I needed to save the ace up my sleeve for finals week (especially Tuesday night, as I have a 7:30am final on Wednesday)
Went into the IEEE-CS office yesterday as I usually do to hang out between class (cuz I'm nerdy like that) and found that one of the guys were updating all the machines in the office (5 or 6 total) to winXP SP3.
One of the machines would keep freezing...so eventually we opened the case to find that the heatsink was hot enough to fry an egg.
not good
the fan still spins, but the only other fan in the case had broken (bearing failure methinks.)
good thing that was caught, and luckily for them I have a few extra fans laying around
*last class for semester @ 2pm local time*
last meeting of the anime club here at uwm for this semester is today. Finishing up outlaw star and Baccano!
if you're in the area, you should definitely check it out (if not this time, then when it starts back up again in the fall)
haven't had any time to make updates to the anime milwaukee site lately, but then again I haven't had any updates to make either :P
we finally got the forums up http://amke.2ksite.com/index.php and they're linked to on the amke main page. Join up and give us ideas 'n stuff
Last thought for now: I am once again losing my faith in people (in general.) Still think it's a wonder that half of the population hasn't killed itself off by now :/ -

oh yeah, finally passed electric eye on GH2 80's edition
got to play with me...and promptly bombed it. (at about 59% through I think
it'l take a fair amount of time to be able to pass that one.
so then I picked up GH3 again and passed cult of personality...only to fail the next set.
other fun for the day has included starting to fill out the blizzard of paperwork for my internship
*plugs computer speakers into ps2 and jams instead of doing homework* -

@BurningLeaves
I knew...
@guy
now it's times to set your sights on a new goal
make the top 10% of all time list
first one to get there gets delicious cake with complimentary anti-chii NOM NOM NOM armor
end of semester is coming
the homework, it is piling up on me...
stupid lab equipment hates me...so I was stuck in lab til 9pm last night trying to get it to work.
the other groups got it working, and our circuits were identical...so I get to wander around lab trying to figure out what went wrong on thursday.
Did the second interview for the internship that I'm trying to get...I completely forgot about questions I should ask. I came up with something and used that to buy time to figure out the rest of the questions. Almost choked on weaknesses (certainly could've done better) but I managed to pull through. With some luck I should get an offer within the week.
...man I hate interviews, no matter what I do I always get nervous (more so than other people I think)
finally got my second networks exam back, 92%
not bad...made some stupid mistakes :/
also got my third econ exam back. 18/20 (lost half a point for not including a minor detail...and then lost the usual 1.5 points on definitions)
plan for the night: harass team members to work on design report due tomorrow
