Crisis Update

The countdown is down to 4, practically halfway down the road from finishing the Hell Sem. Updates? Here we go.

Day 2: Frustrations of the Final Friday

The past Friday provided a much needed relief. Our 111 circuit actually worked this time. It's able to count now and set/reset when it needed to be. Only problem is... someone had swiped our PLDs so we can't complete it. Now, we have to look for replacements as we only borrowed them from people. I know, it sucks and it might get just as dicey if we can't replace them. I've already found 1 replacement which leaves 3 more to be found. Goddamn it.

The 111 bonus test was kind of easy... if I studied for it. Seems like I was too preoccupied to even give it a moment's attention. In any case, multiple choice with more than one answer is already too much to think about. I just relied on the good old shotgun method to answer it. Jerome also gave us the block diagram for our defense which leaves the ASM charts and written report to worry about. Have to wear smart casual on Monday to boot, means I have to wear pants and look nice. Ugh, formalities.

All was not wasted however as I got to spend the last hours of school time with Aldrin and Sandra, talking about various things -- gossip mostly hehe. And driving Sandra to Music Museum was fun also except finding out a section of Ortigas was closed. I did however get to take a detour to Xavier, bringing back memories. haha Bonding time mostly, I really enjoyed it

Day 3: Saturday Kick-backs
Saturday was easy. I woke up with a headache, took a bath and went to school. Studied for the EngPs retest and hoped for the best. After which, went to the ELC 107 defense. I don't know if we did well but I sure wasn't prepared. It was all spontaneous. Mark and Rich went home with me and did their circuit. It worked, congrats!

Wasted a lot of time playing fighting games but we did the ASM chart. Just the written report and the defense to go. Collapsed around dinner time and I didn't wake up until today: Crisis Countdown 4, Sunday. I'm going to bank a lot on today. It's 5:30, I feel numb and my head's heavy. Bring it on.
