Today and like any other weekday, I take the bus off to work. I see lots and lots of people. Sometimes the bus is just too full of people that the smell is horrible. Even with my bad nose and my weak sense of smell; I can smell something foul from time to time. That is not my main point. I was sitting on the bus today, and these two girls were talking and complaining about the people at the back of the bus making out and all touchy and feeling each other. I thought to my self, are they the same two lovebirds from yesterday that were sitting right across from me making out non stop for the 20min bus ride? I look all the way back, and yep, it’s them. Than I thought, with this crowd filled bus and nasty smell; two lips locking does kill the sense of smell and enhances blindness and deafness. I mean I don’t care what people do in public. That’s their problem. But common. A bus? Where people are smelly, tired, and want to go home. Really some people don’t want to see real live soft porn on the way home. Also, aren’t those two in any way blinded of their surrounding? People are looking! Also some people maybe offended by it too!
If I wanted to say something to them it would be like this: “ewww.. he is not that great looking, and your greasy unwashed hair with the little love fest your having with your boyfriend makes the smell of the bus even worse than it is!”
In conclusion, GET A ROOM!
I’m sitting here at work, upgrading and editing the game I am making, and I realized, why am I doing this? At this point of project design, implementation and testing, I do find the project way over due. The development time is taking too long.
As I was working away, I thought to my self. God! I have been working on this piece of software/game since 2004! To be exact since May, 2004. And it is still not done. It’s not my fault obviously. The problem is, I had to take a research paper and experiments and map it into a game design. So game play was my first problem. Than I had to make a script for the game. There was no script! So I did that. I spent 3 months getting people to record the script that was approved by the researcher. That is a delay. This was all parallel with the game implementation and coding. So now we are up to a year after I got drawings, coding and testing done. This does not include interruptions, changes, work overload from other projects, and dealing with students and teaching them. I quit doing that. I just tell them, what you want to learn, here are tutorials, any questions than ask. I am an awful teacher, and I don’t want to teach programming. Never! Either you learn how to do it, or not.
Back to the game, after a year; preliminary game beta version was done. It worked. It was tested and it worked fine. Than I had to wait 4 – 6 months to get feedback. I am not joking! So during that time I was given numerous other projects that I cannot remember anymore. So that was that. Than I was told that the script was going to be recorded again cause it was not good enough. Also another module was to be added. So we are in 2006 now! So I wait. Wait. September comes, and I got my self a new script and 2200 new sounds! I spent numerous days creating the new module. I had numerous interruptions with another project. Since I do have more than one huge project to work on. Cause I am a genius and I can get work done. Yes I am! I am sorry to have to emphasize this. I am not your typical worker or programmer. And being a girl makes it more difficult to comprehend. I WORK TOO MUCH! I do it cause I know I am awesome and I can get the work done. I don’t even care if anyone compliments me. I have really high self esteem and pride of what I do!
So what can I say about my current projects; the time line is never ending. It has a beginning point, and no end. It’s like I was given a blank cheque! Sometimes I feel when I agreed to do this job that I decided to sell my soul to researchers. I know it is not permanent and I will never be a permanent employee or get any special treatment cause I work for researchers and a grant funded network. Yet somehow as the years go by I feel like when I signed my first contract that I sold my soul forever to these people. That the work will never end, and I will always be called upon to do more and more work. At times I wonder why I have to renew my contract every year and even discuss a raise. Who cares at this point. I sold my soul. Signing a piece of paper can easily be done by my fingerprints. Just take my fingerprints off the keyboard and use it!! I live at work and my projects will never end!!! Grrrrrhhhh.
I need a new project. That will keep me on top of things! :lmao:
I am usually fully awake and more capable to be doing work in the morning. I don’t make that many great judgments, but I still make rational decisions as I wake up!
So here is the scenario. I was on the bus this morning and I keep seeing all these young adults coming into the bus. All going towards the University where I work. They are not much younger than me.. maybe 4 – 6 years max. You get the odd 17 or 18 year old. Well, I counted how many of those intelligent people get on the bus while waiting in the freezing weather! It has been really cold the past week here. Temperatures of -20 Celsius and windshield of -30c or -32c. So it is pretty damn cold out there. So those people get into the bus. No hat, no gloves, and a just a light jacket. Some not even jackets. Those stupid thick sweater type jackets. Than I am thinking to my self; am I that hot blooded that the cold kills my internal organs and I have to wear layers of clothes unlike those people who barely wear something to cover their asses? Are they cold blooded and used to it or just don’t think it is “that” cold? It’s COLD! Fuck; it is freezing out there! Does their skin not feel it? They got rubber skin and thick fat insulation layer that is different than my Arabic desert skin? I think I need to just go back to my homeland.. where ever that is anymore, and just go sun bathing. I will never evolve to withstand this weather. It’s genetically impossible. I love snow. I can withstand down to -10c at times. However, anything below that makes my head numb!
Maybe I should just eat those Freezie icicle pops and get used to the cold ice hitting down my throat on a daily bases!
P.S. If anyone from the desert land of Arabia thinks of immigrating to Canada, than you should practice safe icicle pop sucking ahead of time. Ehm.
Well, I have been downloading 2 operating systems for the past 3 hours. I got Windows VIsta from the University. I get a special account. I am getting the business edition.. And now I am downloading 64 bit Fedora Core Linux distribution. My new computer should be here on Monday. That is what the envoice that was emailed to me from the post office indicated. So hmm..
So hmm.. What will I do. I think I will be using Linux more often from now on. Windows is just plain annoying at times.
Oh.. also yesterday.. this was funny. I was sitting on the computer, and my computer just shuts down. I was like wtf. So I try to turn it back on.. nothing. I kept unplugging the switch and it barely turns on and turns off. I tried to get another power supply that was laying on my shelve, and plugged in to the motherboard to just see if it will turn on. Nothing. I got pissed! I was like ughhhhhh.. where can I get another power supply at 9:00 pm at night! So I went to the basement to check out any hidden treasures. (we tend to never throw out anything in our house!) .. anywho.. I found my brothers old case and it had a great new power supply in it that he got a year ago! So bam… installed it in my computer and my computer was rejuvenated! Anyways.. I need to remember to buy a power supply and leave it around. It seems to be the thing that blows up a lot in our house. Sheesh.
Anyways.. for now I am dead tiered. I actually did not sleep at all last night. I tried to doze off. No use! So now I am so so doozy, and about to pass out. So night night!
