Ascension

Ascension... I love that word. It just has so much power. It's one of my all time favourite words. Also, since I'm under quite a lot of pressure in terms of assignments at the moment, I decided to really push myself today. The result was an entire major assignment from start to finish inside 6 hours (including a 2 hour break in the middle for dinner and mythbusters... good show that). I know this sounds arrogant, but I just can't get over how fast I can work when I'm under pressure. Of course, I have to be under pretty extreme pressure to actually have to step it up from my normal semi-coherent state, but that's neither here nor there.

Another surprising thing is the more assignments I finish, the better I feel. It's a huge weight off my shoulders even though I'm not particularly stressed or worried about assignments. It's so good. I'm thinking of starting a separate blog dedicated to documenting the funny, crazy and stupid experiments and hacks I often do. I think it'd probly get more traffic than this blog... but I need this blog too. This is mine, my precious, a space where I can get up on my own soap box and not be heard!

The old people are attacking again! Every time I go out there are a couple who seem keen to have a word or two. An old lady dropped me home the other day too. I'm quite scared. Well, I'm chronically short of time these days so I'll have to continue this later in the week.
