my sense of time has been warped after spending so many late nights and entire days in the computer lab which resembles a casino in that it is totally insulated so you don't sense time passing. this is the reason i have not been updating on sunday recently because i've been spending the past sundays running/optimising simulations in the computer lab. i think i have clocked more hours in those labs this sem than i have in my entire schooling process.
it's been a crazy week of many firsts - first time i went 44 hours without sleep because of work, first time i suffered gastric twice because i was that stressed (and i hadn't eaten), first time i fell because i was so tired. about the last point, the lack of sleep seriously exacerbates my clumsiness, i managed to trip going up the stairs 3 times in a day and i would have scrapped the skin off my entire knee cap if i wasn't wearing jeans on the third time i tripped.
i can safely say that i have never worked this hard on any project in my life and i am feeling mighty proud of it. although it is going to take a long time to recover from the damage done to my health from the late nights, the unhealthy meals and the extended hours in front of a computer screen. it's true what they say - it's not so much about the destination but more about the journey because the manic process of meeting a deadline is fucking shiok.
our day will come.
