I was glad to finally hand out my proposal for the coming committee meeting this afternoon. It was supposed to be handed out by five, yet I was around a quarter later. That was not really matter too much, and although I still need to work on preparing a presentation for it, my mind was loosened immediately after I submitted my writing.
My boss is famous (?) for his slow easy-going character. I gave him my original draft of the writing on last Wednesday, and his first feedback came on this Wednesday. I knew that I was also wrong that I should have mentioned him about giving me the feedback, but that did not mean he was allowed to forget it. orz
As a result, I had to face the fact that lots of parts were needed to be revised. He asked me if I was able to give him a revised second draft at Wednesday night, but at the same night I was going to learn about computer modeling from a former guy in my lab, how come I was be able to submit my revision?! So I told him probably I would give him mine on next morning, and it made me keeping working till 2:30 AM.
On Thursday, I spent lots of time on editing the figure and table. He read my revision and made some corrections, which was directly useful for me. I was working late in that afternoon in the lab for revising, editing figures, and other technical issues, and when it was 7:30PM, I decided to go home. But at that time, the last part of my writing was not fully finished, so he told me he would read that and put his feedback on my desk so that I could get it on the next morning before he came to the lab (don't be surprising if I tell you that's early for him to arrive at our lab at 2PM). He marked some parts were described unclearly. Hmmm, okay, I knew I'm not a native English speaker so such things were not strange if they happened. Thus, I had another night being working till 2AM.
Then, Friday the final day. The deadline was supposed to be 5PM. I got his feedback in the morning (10AM) and finished revising the entire proposal before his arrival (2AM, he was so on-time!). I gave him it, and started to proofread it by myself. I finished my correction ~15 minutes faster than him. Yet, I confess that his read that more carefully than me, so that I could correct typos and such other errors. He was still pointing out the unclear parts in my writing although they were clear for both of us – because others who don't have same background may not understand, you have to describe everything with as much of detail as possible – that's his deduction. Fine. I would do the work, and it was 3:30PM already. By around 4:20PM, I gave him my "final" revision while he was talking to another guy in my lab. I waited until three to five, and decided to ignore his talking. I guessed he also realized the time (I also know he belongs to the type of people who can still work after the last minute…). He didn't say more about my revisions, except a few minor grammatical errors. "Correct these and then you may hand them out." Oh, yay, that's what I was awaiting for! Superb!
I could probably have a long sleep tonight, without any worries about my writing – worrying on it won't work anymore. Also, I can finally enjoy my newly ordered item: KOKIA'S 2010 "OTO NO TABI BITO" CONCERT DVD!!!! Which I had been waiting for almost 3 weeks!!!!
I just ripped them into iso image files. Oh, no, you can not own them by me. You have to buy them by yourself if you really love KOKIA and her music!! I will go take a shower and then begin enjoying it. Do not disturb me while I'm dating with KOKIA's concert, or you suck forever! :D
