(Blog originally started Monday @ 4:30 AM) 2016 has been... a year. I'll probably write more in-depth about it when I'm more alert and at home but, for now, "it was a year" will have to do, as a description. In the meantime, I'm looking back at some plans and resolutions that I wasn't going to … Continue reading “Night Walks”: 2016 Resolutions

Reorganizing (Updated)
A couple of years ago, I started this blog. It was originally an outlet for random thoughts and opinions that I no longer wanted to write under the "Notes" section of Facebook. After a few months, I started adding reviews for movies, game reviews and thoughts, and other things "techie" and/or "geeky". Fast-forward to the early … Continue reading Reorganizing (Updated)
“Night Walk (Work Edition)”: ‘Unpopular Opinions’
One of the recent popular trends in Facebookland is for your status to ask your friends to post a non-political, unpopular opinion. Emphasis on 'NON-POLITICAL'. It's a trend that I'm glad to see - mainly for the NON-POLITICAL part. Rather than post one, here are a few of my 'unpopular' opinions: Cigar smoke is AWFUL. … Continue reading “Night Walk (Work Edition)”: ‘Unpopular Opinions’
The 12 Days of Finals: Day 12 (and 13)
That picture sums things up. Day 12 (Thursday) The lesson for Thursday: don't battle on two fronts when your reserves are nearly spent. The "reserves" in question were the energy levels. The "two fronts": a project and the body. My plan was to go to Planet Fitness late morning, then come back home and wrap … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Day 12 (and 13)
The 12 Days of Finals: Days 10-11
Almost done. Day 10 (Tuesday): CIT 302 Final Of the 3 actual exams during Finals Week, the biggest (and, arguably, most important) Final was the Web Development one (CIT 302). Going into this week, I had a solid 'B'; with a good performance on the Final and an 'A' on the Final Project, I could … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Days 10-11
The 12 Days of Finals: Days 7-9: “It Begins!”
Day 7 (Saturday) To use a Track and Field phrase, I "could not get out of the blocks". The physical exhaustion finally caught up with the mental exhaustion. I managed to get another unit of Discussion Board posts and responses finished for my Systems Thinking class... but that was at about 11 PM, at work. … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Days 7-9: “It Begins!”
The 12 Days of Finals: Day 6
(could probably consider this a "Night Walk" also, since I just finished for the day and it's close to 2 AM when I'm staring this blog) No word on the Cultural Diversity Final grade; I probably will find out sometime next week, maybe Tuesday or Wednesday. Part of yesterday's foot shenanigans - the toe area … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Day 6
The 12 Days of Finals: Days 4-5
Day 4 (Wednesday): A short day of homework and studying, a full shift at Kinetic (9:30-5:30). The Kinetic shift was weird. I found out that 2 friends were fired earlier in the week; I also got so tired at about 3:30 that I had to take my last break earlier than planned, just to go outside, get … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Days 4-5
The 12 Days of Finals: Day 3
Supplies are fine. Main enemy - the Web Site Project - not engaged today. GOOD. Sleep... 2 attempts at naps, 2 failures. I had hoped to spend time at Team Trivia this evening, as 'downtime', but could not get enough to field a team again. Since I probably won't be there next Tuesday, it will be 4 out … Continue reading The 12 Days of Finals: Day 3
