Long-awaited weekend
Although this week has been a short one -as we did not have to work no Monday and Tuesday because of the Labour Day- I felt as if I have been working a full week.
I have been spinning at the uni like a a madman during the whole week.
We had electronic seminars this week which allocated a lot of extra work to me to cop with, given that I am the admin of the e-learning site of the Summer Uni.
Finally everything got completed on time (hard to believe) and I even managed to complete a thorough testing of the ETD (electronic theses and dissertations) user interface, which is even harder to believe.
The only thing that has remained for the weekend and I have to complete by Monday is creating an online (e-learning) course of how the staff should use the ETD software, which means creating screenshots, tutorials, descriptions etc.
Which does not sound like a big deal, but if I take into consideration that P-san is giving a full-weekend seminar in Budapest on Saturday and Sunday and I am supposed to attend it, which means that I have to leave from home at 6.00 am both days and never get back home before 7 or 8 pm - well then the whole weekend looks like a huge rush again.
I am so tired of this. I looked into the mirror today and I had to admit that I grew more than a year older since this time last year. A few months ago my eyes were all "baggy" from not getting enough sleep. By now they evolved to a "suitcase" level. By when the Summer Uni ends and my journey to Japan comes, I will reach again the "zombie" level. Now the Evanescence's music comes to my mind: "I'm going under"
Anyway, I am looking forward to P-san's seminar. I have not met him since a year ago, and curious what's up with him. He is a nice man but I think there are some people here who misuse his good faith. And I absolutely do not like it.
