Last Week of Classes

Busy week is an understatement. Death march is a nice word.

• Monday, 19 March - Preparing for and attending an 1 - 7pm requirements gathering meeting in Makati. Cries of "This is MADNESS!!!" when boss leaves for a bit.
• Tuesday, 20 March - Slept 3 hours to write summary of Monday's meeting. Last formal lecture day in school. Wrote a 40 pt CS 12 exam for Wednesday. 90% recycled from my UP Baguio exam (they wouldn't get leakage anyway)
  
• Wednesday, 21 March - Slept 3 hours to finish writing exam. Had someone proctor so I could sneak off and get an hour's nap during the exam. Afternoon meeting in makati to discuss Tuesday's paper. Checked exams during lull hours.
  
• Thursday, 22 March - Slept 5 hours (yay). Borrowed the car, meaning drove from Marikina to Manila to bring my mom to work, and then Manila to UP. Paper checking in the morning, MS Thesis defence panel at noon. Used the car to go out and buy my happy little laptop Haru-chan (talk about it next time). Afternoon MS thesis proposal defence panel. Round trip UP, Manila, Marikina for my mom. Logged nearly 60+km travel.
• Friday, 23 March - Slept 3 hours. Some laptop setup (of course) but mostly checked papers. Hard core checking to deliver an exemption list for my students. Then document writing output of Wednesday's meeting. English 146 Final exam. Wrote in short concise sentences in large easy to read fonts (i know how hard it is to check essays). Breather in CS 12, had a Robocode tank battle competition. Evening, setup the lab for saturday's hands-on exam. It is 9:30 pm on a friday night waiting for my parents to drive me home. this sucks
  
• Saturday, 24 March (planned) - 5 hours sleep, write problems for saturday's hands-on exam (thank goodness for PC^2, i can do checking on the fly). Prepare for requirements gathering meeting in munoz in the afternoon. Evening to write reports based on meeting.
• Sunday, 25 March (planned) - try to get 7 hours sleep. Hopefully setup Virtual Hosts and Jahia autostart in JRDC network, Ruby on Rails on Student server, MySQL 5 and tomcat configuration on Solaris Server. Write CS 12 finals exam.
