The EW DIVAs made it through presentation 2.phew!
Things have gotten to a point where although this is the last weekend before the last week of school with like 2 essays and paperwork and screening and another presentation to go, i just feel numb about being worried, getting anxious.
A rough survey with other 225 groups made it quite clear that
1. Most are still struggle, and may not be able to submit by mon/tues as predicted
2. we're lagging slightly, well i hope not too much.

monchichi (LOL) was of great help today, enlightening me on various frame rate issues, thanks!

For 2 days in a row, I wanted to go to favourite place, but I think I wont be very much productive cause of the serious lack of sleep. Anyhows, studying at home aint that bad except for tonnes of distraction like tv, bed, internet.

And, what's the difference between concepts and theories?
i think it's beyond the naming but here's my classification:

theory (supposed to have 10 or more):
psychoanalytic theory, evolutionary theory, information theory, cybernetics theory, critical theory, behavioural theory of learning, theory of reflex arc

concepts ( supposed to have 5-10):
content analysis, materialism, positivism, social darwinism, group dynamics, symbolic interactionism, interpersonal communication, 5 question model of communication, cognitive dissonance, propaganda, agenda setting

oh wells, googled and they say concepts are more abstract than theories...
hell lot to mug for comm history.gosh!

"Open up my eyes to the things unseen"
-- refers to what God sees that we dont in people
-- refers to what has installed for us that we have not grasp yet
-- refers to the greater world and perspective out there that God sees and feels for but we havent

So God, open up these eyes of mine that are heavily laden with tiredness and stress.
