Thesis gonna be the end of me...

Really, I never fully understood why my friends had to stay really late in school for something like this.

NOW I KNOW.

*cries*

I'm rushing with my thesis right now. I still have 7 experiments to do. Each experiment needs about 5-6 hours to complete if I'm lucky... if not then I have to wait for 8 hours like yesterday. T_T

On top of that, I'm getting a bit sick. :( See... my immune system isn't that great, and when I got caught in the middle a heavy rainfall last Thursday I began having coughing fits. ;_; Aside from that, I got an eye irritation because I kept rubbing my eye yesterday and now my left eye is all swollen. Then there is not eating on time (because of waiting for the experiment) and if I ever eat, it's something unhealthy and easy to finish (because I have to go back to the lab for the next experiment). And I also lack sleep because I have to study or make reports for other academic subjects. ._.

I wish there was 100 hours in a day, that way I'd be able to finish all the experiments in one day and I'd have enough time to think about other things for the remaining time. T_T

I still need to characterize the samples (AFM at Ateneo) and I need a working vacuum evaporator. Haaaaaah. Stress. T__________________________T

*prays to finish the thesis this sem*

Pictures galore!

I went to the studio after the meeting for our report in MatE106. They finally found my barkada pics! Yay! :D

Anyway, I asked them to burn the barkada pics on my CD so I could show it to my friends but Ate Rhea was nice enough to give me all my pictures! Whee!! Happiness! XD (It really helps when you know the people in charge of the studio, hehehe... )

And so.. I uploaded all the pics in a private multiply folder because I feel much safer. If you want to comment again or you want to feel overwhelmed by my face all over the page, feel free to do so. They're all small pics though, I don't want to use the larger images. :P

Face of 2007... :D

After getting the pics, I went to T. Alonzo. I have never stepped on that place, so yeah.. it was quite an adventure getting there! I had to buy an aluminum sheet for my thesis and my friends told me how to get there. I had to walk down the street twice before finally seeing the hardware store that has what I need. It was quite expensive though. :( But not as expensive as the aluminum sheets that I found online. @_@

So.. I may be able to start on the experiments next week. As it turns out, my power supplies are still working fine. (But the capacitors are starting to leak.. O_o we'll just have that fixed when I'm finished with my thesis. ^^) And they delivered the correct Argon gas last week. I'm so happy! This is it! ^_________^

Let's hope that we could find trends in the results. I need to increase polyimide's adhesion... *prays for favorable results*

Wah! T_T

I was in Trinoma last night when I noticed the CHANGE... @_@

DQ has changed the prices (ice cream prices went higher) and there was no more pineapple and strawberry shake. NO MORE PINEAPPLE AND STRAWBERRY SHAKE! Noooooooo!!! T_T

I really like those fruity flavors (Isn't it obvious?). I guess it was a good thing I was able to taste them before they were gone. :(

In other news, the barkada pics are missing. @_@ Ate Jayna said that they might have misplaced the pics. They'll check but they cannot promise me anything, and she also said that we might have to go back and take barkada pics AGAIN. Oh no... I don't want to bother them again... T_T

Sadness.

Falling behind... @_@

Finally finished with the two exams I had this week. I had too much mental stuff, makes my head hurt. :(

Then I had a meeting with the EB and YB printer. We had some negotiations and started preparing for the contract signing. I wasn't prepared for the meeting, I thought it wouldn't push through... I got a text at the last minute that it was at 5:30pm, right after my last class. >_<

And yesterday was Powerbooks' last day sale, so I hurriedly went to Trinoma to check out the books. But when I got there, I decided to drop by National Bookstore first before going to Powerbooks so I could compare their prices. Turns out they have the same prices, BUT National Bookstore was having 40% off on the book I wanted and it's a lot cheaper compared to 20% off at Powerbooks. When they finally punched in my book, turns out its 50% off... Good gosh! That's a LOT of savings! Yaaaaaaay! XD

When I got home, I quickly unwrapped the plastic and started reading the Calvin and Hobbes book. Hehehe... It was soooooooo cute! I lurve them so much! XD

I fell asleep after reading, I wasn't even able to eat dinner. Wah! T_T (Which also explains why I'm online at 4am.. hehehe...)

Right now I'm trying to finish some papers before going out. Need to check out some stuff today and go to the ERG Night. Yeah, busy busy day. ^^
