How I manage to get the work done<\/h1>\n

\nTime ain’t on my side..<\/i><\/div>\n

Somewhere deep down in my brain, I knew<\/i> I had to do some work. So I
\nfinally got around to ask what the matter was with that work. “Ahh, we’re
\ndoing it already, and next week is last date for a pre-meeting with the
\nassistant”. Okay, so I got me dated for that meeting. In the meantime I
\ncollected some materials: The plastic card for library-access, for instance.
\nI thought I would make something on software-piracy. But nope. No data
\navailable, no hard statistics, nothing. Seems that there is no software
\npiracy, just the SPA crying, because they want to sell their anti-piracy
\nsoftware. Remind me to pirate that software.<\/p>\n

A day before that meeting I finally had an idea of what I could do. I’d
\nwrite on victimless crimes, yep. That’s something I caught on in my
\n15 minutes library visit. So I emailed across the world, got some crime-
\nstatistics from the USA, but none of Switzerland and finally went to the
\nmeeting. I brought up my notebook and explained what I would do. The assistant
\nobviously was shocked by raw data and told me not to worry. “You already have
\nenough data”. And I had to hand in the paper in two weeks<\/i>. So there.<\/p>\n

I went home and did what I always do when such pressure hits me. I divert
\npressure to things I shouldn’t really do now<\/i>. So in these two weeks
\nI<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Started programming Perl<\/li>\n
  • Reorganized my Web-Server<\/li>\n
  • Organized 300 Megabytes Data<\/li>\n
  • Wrote these pages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Of course, sometime, I’d have to write the paper, which is, probably now,
    \nbeing it only one and a half day until I have to hand it in. See?<\/p>\n

    \n

    And I am even writing this<\/i> text before my work!<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
