is this week over?

When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.

-Friedrich Nietzche

the abyss is seeing a frustrated brian

so it's only (barely) tuesday and this week is already hell. i was about **this** close to snapping at about 10:00am yesterday, and i know things aren't going to improve too much. got homework out the wazoo and projects trying to kill me from behind. oh, and i have that FE exam on saturday and i've barely glanced at that. for better or worse, though, i'm not even worried about it. either i know it or i don't. and since about 80% of the mechanical engineers who take it pass the thing, i have it pretty good.

on a side note, i broke in my new suit today with an interview with Exxon. don't think it went all too well, but whatever...i don't particularly want to work for them, anyway. i don't like wearing suits, either, but i do have to admit it's a fairly nice one. maybe i'll eventually get a picture because i hope that me being in a suit becomes a complete rarity.

"mary mac" by carbon leaf is an interesting tongue-twister of a song. i have to say i like english/irish folk type music.
