That's awesome, congrats!

Work's going okay, I was up 'till.. erm.. I would say 5:00ish last night (I had to wake up for 7:30AM today for class) so I'm feeling really derpy today.. So I'm using the day to read "Turn of the Screw" because I was told today that I'm apparently presenting on the week back and I don't plan on reading it during the break because my break won't really be a "break"..

Went to see the screening of our WIP films yesterday and there are some really great ones! There were a lot of really funny ones- like Johnny's is about this.. all-american hero who kicks a hitler-robot's butt.. (While saying "You should've had that made.. in america!") and saves the girl only to have to tell her that he's "gay...... .... .... for uncle sam!" (cue snazzy music and explosions in the background & fin)

It was good to see how all of them are heading : D There are some extra-beautiful ones this year. I have a lot of work ahead of me, though!

I know your pain.
I have done a few all nighters and late night/early morning work sessions. I am taking the weekend off, as I found out that the game we are making doesn't have to be in 24th March, but the 7th May! 8D

I did a little dance when I heard that! XD​

I don't believe i've ever pulled an all-nighter :x I feel like such a bad college student! but I have done a "finish the paper the morning it's due" too many times to count. I work well under pressure though, so it's no biggie, plus I'm good at writing papers.

The "work well under pressure" excuse is perhaps the most common one. I remember a teacher talking about it once. It's considered an irrational procrastination belief because it mandates that we can do well if we are close to the deadline when usually the opposite is true.

And don't worry I've done it as well too and it sucks. Essentially the task won't be any more appealing the later you do it anyway, so why not get it done and out of the way first? XD ;)

Other bad excuses were "waiting for the right time", "this is very easy, I can do it later", and "I don't like this course, I'll do it later".
 
hahaha it's not an excuse though, I know I procrastinate, I don't need to excuse it. If I get stuck on a section of my paper and save it until the morning, I think quicker because I have to with the time limit. It has yet to fail me, I've never gotten lower than a B+ on a paper.

That being said, I don't do this all the time, I get some done a couple weeks in advanced too. Just depends on my work load :P
 
:D

...and this might be really lame of me, but what is a tron dock exactly? I've never heard of something like that haha.

I miss wearing watches, they can be pretty nice accessories :)
 
Oh my god, that dock is so cool! If it weren't for the fact that I'd be beyond broke after buying one, I'd get one. ;_;

The watch... I still can't read the time on it. XD I've been looking at it for a good minute or two and I'm still baffled haha.
 
About the all nighters: I think I have pulled 3 all nighters. 2 of them where during sleepovers.
 
I like to dress how I feel comfortable. Which is shorts and a T-shirt:D
 
I don't see why I can't do both and look stylish and comfortable. I mean, I would definitely like to look good in whatever I'm wearing, but I'd like to feel good to. That doesn't just mean feeling confident (although that's very important), but making sure I can breathe in it too. x_x It's gotta be flattering.

woooord. I'm not at ALL a sweat pants and a t-shirt with ugg boots kinda girl and will never be :D I try and look nice whenever I can (minus when i'm really sick, I don't care, but even then: no sweat pants!). So yeah, I usually wear tank tops/sweater/cardigans and nice jeans/skirts and my boots/flats.

such a girl :x
 
^ We're both such girls. XD I know exactly what you mean. I can't leave the house in sweat pants unless I'm going to work out. Not an outfit at all, haha. I love my jeans and my cardigans and my nice shirts too much. XDD
 
:D -highfive-
Oh yeah, I forgot about working out! I haven't been able to in a while since it's been so cold out D; I run during the weekday, but I don't like doing that in -20 degree weather haha.

but yeah, I feel so under dressed if I leave in anything like that.
