eucleiaDear all,
F-list and public, especially everyone I owe massive replies to (including![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bohemianbeauty and geelady ), my sincere apologies for what must have, and still seem like a rude and abrupt absence. The situation is that about a fortnight before uni started up again, I had to knuckle down and get revising for back-to-term brain activation.
I had originally planned to reply to everyone once I settled down into my new routine, but the final year Astrophysics project has been wearing me pretty thin. Combined with the level 4 Lasers and Plasmas module, and the level 3 Solid State module (both of which are playing to my weaknesses), it is leaving little time for recreational activities. My current day consists of waking up early, zipping in before the traffic gets going, working on project, eating, working some more on project, going home and napping before eating, showering, doing module study and assignment work, before wiping out and going to bed at a shockingly early hour (sometimes even 23:00 - normally I do not sleep until 01:30).
Since my recreational activities are presumably going to be next to nil this semester, I shall simply update on project progression for those that are interested in Physics.
Okay, I need to look away from the screen now before my eyes burn out.
Bis bald!
Dawn Phoenix.

And~ drink some orange juice~ or something with vitamin C that's fairly sweet. ^_^V brains need sugar (fruit = good) to work as hard as yours is probably working.
Odaiji ni~ :)

Date: 2009-10-12 07:13 am (UTC)I just have to keep telling myself it's worth it. XD Doesn't mean my lazy-side brain doesn't often whine back, "No it's noooooooot~~~ *pout*." :P And then I have to beat it back down.
How are you guys doing at the moment? If I'm finding it hard, I can only imagine doing stuff in a different language (though I've heard one of my previous lecturers who used to live in Japan say that some Japanese unis are all about rote-learning, but I wonder about that when they manufacture uber-techno stuffs).

Date: 2009-10-12 07:16 am (UTC)LOL I think it's an epic language though. All the smartest guys at our uni are the plasma physicists from Bochum, and we just hurl insults at each other whenever we pass each other on the corridors. xDDD In a purely fun way of course.

Go forth and get your physics on, my dear!
I'll be here with soft feathers and warmth whenever you have a moment~

Date: 2009-10-12 07:20 am (UTC)Strangely enough, I find Solid State not-so-bad now. It's the Lasers and Plasma module that's getting to me, especially the Lasers part of the course because the lecturer is very smart but also a very hard worker himself. =__= Thus he seems to forget that some of us have other classes and homeworks, and all of us have projects, and proceeds to set us rather lethal assignment questions.
Argh. *flaps embers everywhere in agitation*
But yes, thank you for being there. o^o *cuddles* And you rock ass on your work too! Do you have feedback on how your science-translation went yet?

Too bad about the work overload. *squishflap*
But! You can overcome!
Yeah! I finished everything right on deadline, and then barring some minor cosmetic changes it was used in the big presentation more or less as is.
I didn't personally talk to all the companies but two of their representatives thanked me personally!
Also I learned about some really cool solar and thermal technology that's currently in trial phase :3
I am envious...
Date: 2009-11-17 05:45 am (UTC)School, I miss ye.
But I totally get being stuffed to your eyeballs with school and life schedules plus a multitiude of projects/assignments. You just go and keep on going. All power to you and your books.
I'm working full time and teaching ASL (Sign Language) on the side and still trying to write my other stuff and these House fic's and all the other things in life that demand lots from me...but all in all, life is good.
