Thu
I stayed up today mostly accompanying my friends. We mostly talked in chat and I just replied when I could. That happened in the background and I was fixing the theme for my blog in the foreground. I had a few fixes lined up and eventually deployed my fixes by 3 a.m. or so. I played Sky for a bit and did the dailies for my friend's account and mine. I sent them a message about completing the daily tasks and tried to sleep, but I kept working on my blog's theme and they didn't reply to me until the morning.
In the morning, I was swamped with work but I was able to handle it all despite being on so little sleep. I got through the morning just fine. In the afternoon, I was preparing my presentation for my meeting a bit. I was actually shocked that I was preparing my presentation 1 hour before it started, but whatever. It was eventually my presentation and it was my time to present.
For some reason, I was so nervous to present my websites and stuff. I pride myself on being fearless and rarely getting embarrassed. I'm never nervous with people and I sang on a stage in front of these coworkers before, so I don't know why I was so nervous doing a presentation from home about some topic I already have a good grasp of, and with our cameras off. Maybe it was the lack of sleep. I was still able to present and I didn't really stutter and I believe I did really well. I can see that some of my fellow devs were impressed by the sheer number of websites I have deployed. They were so impressed, that they even asked me to give a DevOps presentation next time so I can show them a thing or two about Linux. After that, my shift ended and I didn't really do anything noteworthy for most of the evening. My friends eventually replied in the late evening, around 11 p.m. and we talked for a bit before they decided to sleep since their Internet connection was bad.
