so um. yeah.

I handed in my thesis Monday, but I doubt I'll get a passing grade. Everything up to the actual analysis part was good (enough) and I know if the entire thing had been that level I would've passes no problem, but the analysis was way too short, and basically sucked. Everybody's been saying that I'm too hard on myself etc, but well, I know what I wrote, and it sucked. So. That's horrible, and I feel like a huge failure whenever I think about it, so I try not to. Especially because I'd worked so hard! I'd been at the school every morning at 7 or earlier to 5 for the last while, and before that, I'd been there from 9-5 every day. I barely slept the last two days. (The last night I slept exactly 20 minutes, after I got a friend to call me so I knew I'd wake up.) *sigh*

In other, much better news: Stine and I threw a party Friday, that really fucking rocked. 25-30 people, we had brownies, mini pizzas, pigs in blankets, chips and candy and we closed to door behind the last people at 6 in the morning. Also, you know you've had a party when 25-30 people drink:

• 89 beers
  
• 2 bottles of champagne
  
• 4 bottles of wine
  
• 2 bottles of port
  
• 1 vodka
  
• 1 whisky
  
• Half a bottle of rum
  
• Half a bottle of kahlua
  
• and ten energy drinks

ahahahaha, omg that sucked carrying down from fourth floor. Also, one of the guys from climbing - who's very straight - and I have sort of started flirting. well, we kind of had before, but he had steady girlfriend (they'd been together for years) up until like, two months ago and so. I had the climbers over about six months ago, and while the others went home around 2-3, he didn't leave until 6:30. There's definitely something there, and Stine even commented on it, but we're both sort of hesistant. Possibly because we haven't been together alone since then. hmm.

In other good news, I start work tomorrow. My oldest cousin is part of Scandinavian DesignLab, and she called me while I was working on my thesis. They needed a general office slave since they'd been left hanging by the two earlier people they'd employed, and she knew I'd be done (well. I'm not really, but I told her and she seems cool with it) by now, and asked if I wanted to come work for her for a few months, get some experience and make a little money, you know. My contract runs until the end of February, with the option to extend it, if both parts find out that this works for us. The pay isn't anything to write home about, but it's still more than I've been making, and it'll look sweet on my CV. Plus, I can look for job in the meantime, and if I don't find anything, I can possibly stay on there. I'm pretty excited.

Of course, I'm still officially employed at both the bakery and by Teach Train. Awkward.

So how are you?

Hey, so I totally bailed on my thesis--the program I was in had an option to take another semester of small seminars, and I went for that so fast my advisor's head was spinning. It was a hassle, because there were only 3 or 4 of us in every class and there was no way I could ever blow off the reading or be unprepared in any way, but I was so happy to not have to write a thesis, I didn't care.

So, whether it sucks or not, you're totally aces for sitting down and doing it. ::hugs::

UGH I wish I could have done that. Seriously, this was the worst thing ever. I don't work well like this!

*hugs* thank you.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for your thesis.

I'm glad your party was a success and you have a good job lined up for the next couple of months, though.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm going to need it. >_<

It was! Best party I ever had. And yes! It was my first day today, and my head is filled to the brim, but it was good. :)

I'm thinking good thoughts for you thesis wise.

That sounds like one heck of a party. Good luck with the job, and the guy :)

:D thank you! *hugs*

Hee! It totally was. :D

Dude, you've handed in your thesis! That alone is worth one big WOOOP! You are absolutely awesome, dear. :D

Also, I hope you do pass. I always thought I wouldn't pass tests, and then I did quite well. It's very difficult to be objective about one's work.

Admit, YOU drank that bottle of whisky, didn't you? *g*

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

:D thank you! Ahahahaha, at least this time I handed it in. :P

Well I know parts of it were good enough, but parts of it sucked very hard.

NO WAY. LIAR.
