Well, this is a real
textbook monday.
My
eyes feel really strained, and keeping them on a
monitor is not a very pleasant feeling. Once again I fought with
network problems for an hour or so, and
furthermore I'm even suffering from a case of
noder's block!
ARGH!
Actually, noder's block might not be the correct
term.. I have plenty of stuff to write about, but with my eyes and all I just can't put myself to create anything other than a
day log entry. At least I can
let out this monday
irritation for your reading pleasure!
:)
I found a
great pine tree tutorial by
Dave Jerrard. By building on it, the most
difficult modelling job in my
Big LightWave Project™ might become a
lot easier. Which is nice, since I realized the other day that 3.5 months is not that much. Why? Because I do most of the modelling on
weekends, and there's a limited amount of them left before the "
deadline". That's why I've started working on the project with
full speed now.
Today was the first day for my
little sister Riikka in her new
school. Since she has
developed slowly, she has been on special classes. And because the
funds for everything involving
studying are always extremely low in
Finland, they are quitting those classes in several schools and putting them into a new one. The new school is closer to where we live, but she still isn't that happy about the sudden change, being thrown into a crowd of mostly
unknown kids. Hopefully her
teachers are good and she'll make some new
friends among her new
classmates.
Ok, I'll get out of the
office soon. It's the last chance in a while to get a cheap double-
cheeseburger at
Carrols, so I'll stop by there. Mmmmm, fattening.

Starting work for Doppler shift rate 0.086880, FFT length 131072
Nice, my home PC hasn't
crashed since I left to work. I really need to get a new
processor fan, since it's started to
malfunction quite badly, causing the crashes when the processor is in heavy use. It's not like a new fan would cost that much, but there never seems to be time to visit the
store and get one.
My sister didn't
complain much about the schoolday, so it can't be awful. I'm not sure wether my
decision to work for another year before enrolling (or attempting to) to an
university was
smart or not, but I plan to
enjoy the
calm workdays while I can.
