I just realized my research was typed in size 11. And I can go as high as 12. I just gained the page and a half that I still needed! Now I just need to finish my last main idea and within a single page I will be done with a grand total of 13 pages. It might be the first time I actually make it to the amount of pages I’m supposed to write, I’m almways one short!

And how better to celebrate it than to go spend a relax evening eating sushis and watching television with Debbie and Alex? Sleep is a close second but the sun is shining. I’ll be fine.

I just noticed that it’s now almost 4 in the morning. It’s really surprising for me to stay up this late, I usually never stay awake no  matter how much I try to stay up and finish a project. Once I decide that I can’t finish it on time, I tell himself it’s better to get some sleep because it will be late anyway.

I’ve just started writing my introduction. Normally that would be alarming but I usually write it once I’m almost done with the bulk of the text, to be sure that my introduction will be still relevant even if I change my outlook on the subject. I *think* what I’ve written is decent, but doubts are starting to gnaw at my stomach  (unless that’s just bad digestion from lack of sleep) because I will have very little time to do a real reread before printing this out.

Wow, I still can’t believe I only had one yawn of the whole night at around midnight. Hop! a sip of orange juice and I was back on track. I suppose it’s a good thing I went to bed early last night when I realized that the electricity wouldn’t be coming back.

Big finger crossing hoping that this research will be enough to pass FFAR even if I didn’t do the second essay.  Big fingers crossing that my Maya critique will go well even though I’m not very far into it and have little to show so far. I suppose that will help other people give lots of suggestions since there is so much left to do.

Note : listening to Smoochy Smoochy Pukey Pukey right now. It has the best lyrics ever. “Hello Ron, you don’t look so good this morning. You’ve got something stuck to your face, it looks like it sucks, what could it be, is it a leech? Is it the giant squid? Because it’s wrapped around pretty tight. Oh Great.  It’s a girl.”

Second note :  I took a break earlier and browsed blogs. I saw a link to a sock pattern and I caved in. I spent 80$ in the middle of a research but I’m not regreting it. Have you see the terrific cables and details along the calf line? I need to get a pair of shoes to fit those perfectly!

This is what good friends do, they send you the most ridiculously cute and disturbing photo to get you off your worry when you have to write 14 pages in 24 hours caus the *beep* electricity company has a power failure for just your building for almost 12 hours straight in the only period of the week you could actually get started, all this 48 hours before the due date of a big project.

I’m a student, of course I have a wacko schedule and had almost no other choice but to get started at the last minute.

When I got up this morning, approximatively an hour and a half too early because I had forgotten my drawing class “brunch super breakfast party for the last class” was half an hour later than usual and that I didn’t need to eat breakfast before showing up… I was a bit meh. I wanted the sleep. I decided to go online and check all my websites so that when I get home later today I can go straight on to working on my research paper…

Then I loaded mugglenet.

The the world stopped.

Harry Potter and the deathly Hallows covers!

Added, now that I’m discussing this with Debbie… a few major points of interest have come up.

• Is the house elf holding the sword Dobby and he’s checking harry’s back or is it Kreacher trying to backstab him?
• The big stone archway, is that the veil? If so, they look like they just went through it. I have strong doubt they will all die. Snape must be tortured with insufferable know it alls with ginger hair griffindors.
• Patronus stag! It’s on thecover. It’s bound to be important. Will there be a dementor attack?
• The castle, with the pointy leaf less tress doesn’t look like Hogwarts. Could it be the Malfoy’s Manor?
• All the riches, is that in gringots? If so, who’s vault? Are the horcruxes hidden in gringotts?
• Is the snake in the glass ball Nagini? Is she a Horcrux? Or is this the weird thingnyesdustcatchers on Dumbledore’s office, the one when he said “But in essence divided?”
• American edition : he’s wearing the locket! Does that protect him in any way?
• American edition : is the yellow glow a result of the dome of light of Priori Incantem?
• American edition : What are they both gesturing towards? Could it be Fawkes? It’s bound to come up again since they both have his tailfeather in their wands
• and lastly, what i sthat weird triangle + circle logo on the spine? It looks like some sort of secret society sign to me. I hope Jo hasn’t been too influenced by the Da Vinci Code.

It looks like my adorable 3D animation rig has back problems and went to an acuponcturist! It’s so cute. I absolutly love this rig once I discovered how it is so extremly well made. There are tons of attributes to modify (around 10 just for the foot! excluding the mandatory translation/rotation) and all the things I mustn’t change have been hidden and protected. It’s totally idiot-proof!
