Observations..
Posted Sunday, December 11th 2005
When they said that the postgraduate course is hard, they weren’t kidding. I remember talking to my advisor a few months ago, and he said that the course is very hard. It starts off relatively slow, to give the new guys some time to get acustomed to how things work, but after a few weeks, work load increases exponentially.
And he wasn’t kidding. Just two weeks left in the semester, and I’ve got a number of assignments to work on and submit, not to mention the work I’ve submitted over the past 10 weeks. In the past 10 weeks I’ve probably submitted as much work as I would have submitted in a whole year during the undergraduate studies. I’m not complaining - I know it’s supposed to be like this. But it’s really starting to get to me. I feel somewhat depressed and not motivated at all. I need rest, and I need it now.
Thankfully, Christmas break starts at at the 17th, and I’ll be going home for a few weeks. I certainly look forward to spending some time with my family and my friends, and most certainly my girlfriend. I’ll probably be working during those three’ish weeks, but at least I’ll see some people that are important to me. I’m also looking forward to the new year’s party. Last year’s party sucked donkey crackers, so this year I’m hoping to do something a bit more fun. And I’ve got a few things planned too. My parents might be away for a few days during new years, so I’ll have the house to myself. Might even throw a small party or something, if all goes well.
I’m tired.

Citroen will return to the World Rally Championship in 2007! Because of the FIA’s meddling in rules, a lot of teams are dropping out - and Citroen’s return for 2007 was uncertain. However, 2005 WRC/ROC Champion Sebastien Loeb and his co-driver Daniel Elena tested the 2007 C4 WRC for the first time a few days ago. Sebastien Loeb and Elena will participate in the 2006 WRC, and will drive a 2005-spec Xsara WRC for Belgian teem Kronos.
Sébastien Loeb is this year’s ROC Champion of Champions! This is a great wrap-up of a great season for Loeb, who also won the WRC drivers championship this year, as well as setting a few new records - he won 6 rallies in a row, and won 8 out of 13 rallies this season! Loeb will be driving for a privateer team in next year’s WRC, and I wish him the best of luck!
