first countdown

Being sick has set me back a lot, and I leave in 27 days. Accounting for Olympic events I'm attending, I have about 22 workable days (not counting watching TV events). I have AT LEAST 20 full days of work to do, probably being overly optimistic about how much work I can get done in a day...

Somehow I'll have to make it work. The sad part is that I'd like to really enjoy the Olympic being in town - go see pavillions, enjoy the atmosphere. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity that I don't want to miss.

I'll just have to be uber efficient with my time and try knock my 'work days' down a few to get in some Olympic days. I'll be getting up earlier and staying up later and I'll just make it work. ROAR!

(I have no idea if I'll make it work, but I have faith in myself, I can do it.)

Then I'll just have to rally again when I'm back from Cambridge for the final massive sprint to the exams in May.

setback

ugh, so for the past week or so I've had a nasty sinus infection/cold which has set me back quite a bit. Not fun! I'm still not over it but I I'm slowly on the mend? I sure hope so.  The most irritating part is that I get really bad headaches with it, if I concentrate too hard on something. So, like, law, well, that requires some concentration... hence the set-back. 

I'm also anticipating some set backs over the next few weeks, with the 2010 Olympics being in town. I'm a big fan so will be trying to participate as much as is possible. I really hope I manage to balance everything, as I leave for England shortly after the Olympics leave us!!! ahhh!!!

anyway, feel free to send positive 'get well' energy in my direction - I don't get sick often (once every few years) so I'm a total wimp when it happens.
