Spoon

Day 38: Yet another day spent grinding through the gears to get all the work I can done and turned in. Also been debugging an old project I'm planning on using as part of my spoken comm final speech, so that's taking up all my free time when I'm not doing the other late work or finals.

Day 37: Still working on the finals and late work, nothing really new to say.

Day 36: Saw my notification go off, but I'm in the zone working on my finals. Will write a retrospective post tomorrow

Day 35: Slept in today, and spent the day cleaning my apartment. After I get dinner I'm going to go to the wifi lounge my apartment has and keep working on my final projects. So far, even thought it felt slow when I started, today has gone by pretty fast.

Day 34: Today was a good day. I finally fixed a bug in the project I wanted to base my final spoken comm speech off of, which means now I can do a live/interactive demo during the speech I'm still waiting on more results from my stats survey before I do the calculation and write-up just so I have a solid sample size. Class ends on the 13th, so things are coming close to an end. I've been working on the late work slowly, but this weekend for sure is when I have to get it done. Faculty have a meeting Monday, and there's no spoken comm class tomorrow, so I have a 4-day weekend to get caught up.

Day 33: I was so busy working on my Stats final that I didn't notice my phone go off with the daily journal reminder. As a sort of tribute to my departure from games, I've decided to make my final project be about GPA vs Hours per week spent gaming, and seeing if there's a correlation. From some of the results I'm seeing, it seems there is one, but it's fairly small, but I haven't put them through the correlation formula yet so I could be waaay off and there might be a strong correlation. Class ends next Tuesday, so I'm starting to run up against the clock for the late assignments, but I've been working away at them, albeit slowly.

Day 32: Well, that makes 2^5 days without games, it's been really hard. It's been more of the same in class again, so things are starting to get a bit monotonous. I'm in the middle of working on my stats homework as well as my projects so I'm gonna get back to work.

Day 31: Today was SSDD, so nothing really interesting happened. No Spoken Comm (cause no class Mondays), and Stats just introduced yet another time-consuming formula, so that's fun. I'm still trying to find something to fill my free time, cause reading doesn't seem to cut it for me.

Day 30: Well the good news is my cold is finally gone, so I'm feeling much better! But since it put me out of commission last week, I'm having to teach myself the stats stuff I missed so I can do the project-exam that's due tomorrow, so now instead of migraines, my brain is hurting in a different way. As I mentioned in yesterday's post, I just kinda spent the day relaxing, mostly reading and watching TV, but I did mess around with the guitar for a bit. Today I overslept and woke up at 11 for whatever reason, but so far the day has been productive.

Day 29: Nothing really interesting happened today, just spent the day relaxing and getting ready for working all day tomorrow on getting the late work done.

It's kinda complicated; basically, it's a set of triangular panels that can change color. You can use the app of the same name (Nanoleaf) to change colors, which is kinda required to get it set up. BUT, you can put in different scheduled lighting settings at specific times, so I've got mine set to be a flickering bright white in the morning, and a dim fading red at night.

Day 28: Wow, a whole month gone. Still, nothing much going on, haven't really gotten too far into Ready Player One either. I did get my Nanoleaf Aurora system finally working, so that's nice, especially since I can put it on a schedule to turn on in the morning really bright. Other than that, there's nothing really going on right now.

Well, I haven't gotten too far, but from everything my friends who have read it are saying it's going to be a good book... I'm only a little bit through the first chapter, so it's mostly exposition and setup for the story.

Day 27: Sick again, but today was better than yesterday. Missing class again is giving me a guilty feeling since I've already missed so much. I'm probably going to do my final Spoken Comm speech tomorrow if I can make it to class, but that depends on how well I feel. I've started reading Ready Player One since I have been avoiding TV and guitar. This will probably sound strange, but it's been a long time since I've picked up a book and started to read.

Day 26: Still fighting off this cold... ended up staying home from class today which made my temptations that much harder to avoid. As the day has been going on I've slowly been feeling better, but this cold is taking its sweet time. I've been doing a bit of research for my English paper just to help pass the time, and when I get drained from doing that I've been getting caught up on Supernatural.
