im high... on life... and alcohol
today was the last day of publication for the spring semester...
good lord, it was stressful, even before coming to work... then i get there and oh, what's that its a TWENTY PAGE PAPER?!?!? oh... well... no sweat.
so yeah, of those 20 pages, i designed 14 of them... more specifically, everything but the front page, sports pages (4 total) and classies. nancy was nice enough to deal with the mess that was the front page, and daniel was a trooper and stayed till sports was finished... at 9:30pm. the grad issue was a pain and a half... lack of content to fill all the space, and questionable content at that. but magically, it was fixed. news being difficult, but everyone pulled their weight and it came out well. oh the server crashed twice? yeah, awesome. production and design kind of blurred together... i was designing till about 11pm, hehe. BUT, the most important thing: we fuckin made deadline. called the press just after 12 and they called me back in record time. 20 pages? yeah, no sweat.
and now im drinking tecate to celebrate cinco de mayo... which was technically yesterday. i have to do an outline for soc welfare, and then that's it for a week till finals.
two anxiety attacks, papers, presentations, work, school, life in general... and im still standing. not bad at all.
ps alcohol makes me cocky... this is especially true when i feel particularly confident, like now.
more interesting posts to come to recap what ive missed.... once i recover from my delirious state.
