I am NOT SWISS and I DON'T SOUND SWISS either!

i've been a very good girl today. i had to work at mcdonald's (the last time before i hand in my project, thank goodness!) and i was planning to take the evening off afterwards and relax. but i managed to convince myself to come to uni and draw two block diagrams i'd meant to do yesterday but not got round to (too much blogging, i guess...)

i only meant to be here for an hour or two and now it's been four! i just managed to finish the last block diagram in time to realise the tram just left and if i leave now i'll be waiting at the station for half an hour :-(

but at least i managed to get three new block diagrams done! woohoo! and i found some stuff to optimise in the code for one of my algorithms. on the one hand that's a good thing, cause hopefully now the one that's supposed to be fastest will actually be fastest! but on the other hand it means i have to re-synthesise everything which puts me back a couple of days again! bah!

anyway, i'm going home to relax in front of the tv. i don't care if i need sleep, i can't sleep anyway until i relax a bit ;-)

i had to work at mcdonalds till 1am this morning. cause the trains only run till midnight on weekdays, i took the bike. i'd finished work and was heading back to the bike when i felt an itch in my chin. of course i scratched it. fine, no problem, except that i'd forgotten that i had the bike helmet in my hand... *WHACK*...

my jaw really hurts now :-(

saturday was my first day back at mcdonalds. relieved to find i haven't forgotten anything, i was there for 8 hours, didn't need to engage my brain once... ;-)

it turns out they've promoted the biggest moron ever to work there to the level of his incompetence. now the guy i've learnt not to talk to because his stupidity makes me want to throttle him and then chop him up into little pieces and throw them on a VERY BIG BONFIRE!! is going to be my boss!!! sorry, i cannot stand that moron, it's toooooooo much! there is honestly nobody worse!!!

i was glad he didn't start till seven on saturday, that was when i finished. i managed to ignore him completely ;-) am ashamed of myself, not very christian and all, but that guy makes me want to put the keyboard through the screen! hmm, maybe i should change the subject now ;-)

annoying other boss person is as bad as ever. insisting that i've just had a six month holiday. 'sprachaufenthalt, das sind ja ferien...' meh, i was working thank you very much! and i already knew english!!! he's got this huge chip on his shoulder cause he failed the second year exam twice at the ETH. so he's always tried to make me feel inferior cause i haven't failed anything so far :-D haha, i'm nearly done and he hasn't started on his 'i'm going to go back and study economics at the uni zurich' nerner-ner-nerner! :-p

not quite sure going back to mcdonalds was the best course of action, but i desperately need money... luckily i only had (more or less) sensible and polite guests on saturday and the two annoying morons didn't turn up till just before i was done ;-)

i went to mcdonalds on friday, got my job back. not sure whether that's a good thing though ;-) ah well i can definitely use the money since i can't seem to stop myself spending it no matter how little money i've actually got... hope they don't want me to work next weekend though. i'm not quite sure what marco (restaurant manager) meant when he said easter... did he mean i'd start after easter or at easter? ah well i guess i'll see...

this means i have to get used to planning my life around mcdonalds again. crap. they never let you know when you're working more than a week in advance... but if you want the day off they want a month warning... but i need the money. meh.
