Crunch time

I keep forgetting it's Friday today. Usually that never happens. I guess this has been what I'd call a "busy" week. After getting back on Sunday from the Birkie, I took Monday morning to sleep in and slowly acclimate back into the college life routine. Once Tuesday hit, however, everything changed with huge deadlines looming on the horizon of another perfect storm that is hitting right before I head off to California for Spring Break.

I have a web page due tonight. A paper due Sunday. An exam on Monday. Another exam on Tuesday. A graphic design project due Tuesday. A homework assignment due Tuesday. And finally, a huge paper due on Wednesday. Whew. Right now, I'm just focusing on making it out alive, but I'm already ahead of the game with finishing that blasted web page this afternoon. After a good 15ish hours of hard work and problem solving, here it is! I am very proud of it and actually had some fun putting it together.

Also, I'm stoked to add that the study abroad program to Estonia has been approved, so I will be spending roughly 6 weeks this summer in a faculty-led program that will get me and 8 or so other students client project experience as well as a unique experience in eastern Europe. I am so excited.

Most people ask me where the heck Estonia is. Right there, just a short ferry ride from Finland and short train ride to St. Petersburg.


Well, happy Friday, and happy end to the longest week ever for most Tech students. Keep plugging away, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it's coming from Truckee, CA. Lake Tahoe awaits.
