A Fitting Fate

May 31, 2004 by krisis

Fitting that my last week of college is pretty much going to be an unmitigated string of all-nighters (and, for that matter, all-dayers). I’ve been working my ass off to get things completed the past few weeks, but i fear that with graduation in sight i’ve become a little too detail oriented, a move that is absolutely killing my ability to get anything done in a respectable amount of time.


I have five half-finished papers sitting here half-finished, my floor is littered with small items that haven’t managed to be packed yet (and i’m due for truck-picking-up in about two hours), and the new site is being held together with a virtual duct-tape of on-the-fly PHP and code stolen from various bits of the CK archive (tell me if you find anything broken, okay?).

Not to mention the critical assessment i have due tomorrow, the Senior Project revisions i have due on Wednesday (did i mention i’m getting an A), the Senior Project presentation i have to do on Thursday, and the umpteen past-due articles for Ron’s class. Oh, and some exit-interview mumbo-jumbo.

I really shine under the pressure of a deadline.

I’m Telling You For The Last Time

May 29, 2004 by krisis

This is the last weekend of my life as i have come to know it.

I have this way of always wanting to do the thing that stands three steps ahead of me rather than the one i have to do at the moment. In class i want to be playing guitar, playing guitar i want to be playing City of Heroes, and playing CoH i want to be working on The Mother-Daughter Dyad in Duras and Kincaid.

Just like turning cards in a game of solitaire, some things keep getting dealt past, flashing by as the next trio of cards are flipped. In solitaire, you desperately seek a home for the cards between you and your object. In my life, i desperately hurtle towards deadlines.

This week is a series of deadlines. By Friday, my life will have ended.

My room is teeming with boxes half-packed in anticipation of moving out of what was truly my “college apartment.” They need to be done by Monday morning. By Tuesday night i will have gone from from living relationally on my own to sharing each “good morning” and “good night” with another person.

I am frantically building a completely new website from scratch for the first time in years. It will be at once like and unlike this one. And orange. It is for a class — one of ten assignments pending in my four courses. At 3:20 PM on Thursday, i will attend the last class of my college career. If all of my assignments are in by Friday, i will qualify to graduate.

So, you see, my life is ending. When i wake up on Saturday i will be in my new apartment, in a different bed, in the strange sensations of being free from the pressure of college. I will be in a new life; finally an adult. Perhaps i had the opportunity to become one sometime before now, but i kept dealing past it.

And, on top of everything else, i’m losing my voice. Lovely.
