MIENTEME COMO SIEMMMPREEEE, POR FAVOR MIENTEMEEEE D:
Sooo... Here comes cool story bro tiemz.
I have to do a project for the end of the semester in my Networks class.
The project is supposed to be done in two person teams, which utterly sucks, because I feel "meh" towards most of my classmates.
Guy who is trying not so subtly to pick me up (he had sent a bunch of emails before) appears two weeks ago and goes "HEY DO YOU HAVE A PARTNER FOR THE PROJECT??" and I'm like "Nope, but I can only do meetings on Sundays, and I swear I don't know crap about NAT, IPsec or Frame Relay". And he's like "SURE PANTS."
So, first Sunday, we meet.
He's like "I HAVE ALL THIS SHIZZ DONE IN ROUTER SIM", and gives me the stuff he has done. At this point, Kai gets suspicious, as the guy has just given her four routers connected strangely, six switches and a bunch of PCs.
So Kai goes "awesomesauce, but half of the entries we must do cannot be done on this program, we have to use a different one". Guy goes "oh do we" and Kai's eyebrow reaches the ceiling. "Ok," goes Kai, "I'll take this one home, and try to get started. WE should start with the inform and shit, so uh, let's split the parts on that?", but he is like "Oh, the theoric part is like five minutes, we can do it after this is done."
Kai is still suspicious, but says nothing and takes the pseudotopology the guy made, to work on it.
As Kai is going back home guy sends a text message that goes like "I should've offered you something to drink". As Kai takes out her cell to read it, the Riku strap decides to break. I should've noticed that Riku was trying to tell me something.
Luckily Riku got fixed, and so did I.
Jump to the next Sunday, Kai is like, not up to working on the project because she has joined a Tag Duel YuGiOh tournament and is watching mommy_miyu. However, she has freed up next Wednesday in order to make up for it.
Kai then insists on doing the theoric part, but guy is still reluctant.
Monday we have a test for Operative Systems. Guy sends a message that goes "how about a kiss for luck" and Kai is like "*ignores message, you've gotta be shitting me*".
After the test, guy messages with "it's late for the kiss now, but I'd like to steal one from you some day" and I'm like "WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THIS GUY, DOESN'T HE GET THAT THERE IS NO INTEREST AT ALL ON MY SIDE DO I HAVE TO HIT HIM OR WHAT??". Then she ignores the messages. Also, Kai learns that she utterly hates the concept of "stealing a kiss". You don't steal that stuff, you ask for it, be polite, idiot.
Tuesday we have classes. Guy is like :/, and Kai is like :/er. Professor explains a LOT of useful crap for the project, Kai is like "BEAMS AND TAKES NOTES", guy is like "lollool" with classmates. Kai's eyebrow has just reached the stratosphere.
Then Kai gets suspicious, as she CASUALLY LISTENS to some conversations on a complete project from a previous year going around and teamguy asking questions to otherteamguy, and otherteamguy telling teamguy to give him what he has so far to check it.
He has nothing because, uh... well see the next part.
Cue tuesday night, Kai starts working on the project to discover the horror.
The thing the guy gave her, is not only incomplete, but absolutely nonfunctional. As in, it doesn't even have the correct switches installed, there's no ping at all, and nothing NOTHING works. So, Kai stays awake until 4 am to fix that piece of... topology.
Wednesday! Kai has fixed the topology, tested most of it, learned a few things about frame relay, and it all fired up! She has done the configuration in the other nicer application and wants to get this done, as she only needs 20 points out of 40 to approve!
So we arrange a meet up in the library. OVARIES ATTACK, Kai gets there early, and well, freezes to death while waiting, however while she's there an old classmate comes out.
He's like SO HOW ARE YOU DOING, and kai is like GOING MAD WITH THIS SHITTY PROJECT. Guy is like "oh, I gave some classmates of yours my project from last year, didn't it reach you?" and Kai is like "nope, but maybe you can email it to me? :D:D:D:D:D:D:D" which he did.
Actually, I still haven't written a thank you email, brb. There, done.
Projectguy arrives, and we get to work on this. I show the guy what I have so far and he... stares blankly. I ask him if he knows anything about several things, and he's like *blankface*. This shit is getting uncomfortable by now.
We start going over the exigencies of the project, and guy complains a lot about it making no sense. I am like :/.
Complain, complain, and Kai is like "no rly".
We end up going each to their home, with NO FUCKING ADVANCE AT ALL. At this point we have ONE router done, and we have to make A WHOLE NETWORK.
Kai gets home, and her XO face is priceless. She says nothing, and does nothing in the night, however she receives an email from oldclassmate with the finished project... which is quite helpful.
THEN, projectguy sends an email that goes like "I think you'll like this" (I swear that's the whole email) and then attaches... the same file Kai already has.
Kai is... uh... a little pissed off. But she still needs someone to work with so she holds it in. CUE THURSDAY, Kai spends a while of her lunchtime and free time at work to work on the project.
She deciphers the redundancy for routers, adds four more routers, an internet connection, a frame relay link, several access lists and other important things, and this piece of... topology starts to look like a real network. ALL HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY, she sends projectguy an email saying "I'm doing some progress here".
By now Kai seriously suspects that the guy has a plan B, and that the project was just a thing to pick her up... Or maybe he fell for the "quiet and nice" act I tend to put up. Well, whatever it was, it sure backfired because I hate him now.
*hands hurt...* ALMOST DONE.
So, in the afternoon, projectguy sends an email saying he's not coming to class. As this is the last class before we have to complete the thing, Kai is like "BWUH". He even writes "so tell me what we are doing" on his email.
KAI IS RAGING, like a Terra. She sends a passive-aggresive email to the guy in the lines of "I got some things done, but dunno what you are going to do", and gets no answer until today.
Guy is like "I'm going to try to make it on my side", also writes "Evidentemente como equipo no funcionamos mucho y no se porqué me imagino que no te caigo muy bien.", obviously as a team we don't work much, and I don't know why but I imagine you don't like me that much.
O RLY.
It's your fault. If you were expecting me to work for you, you were pretty wrong.
If you were thinking that it was a piece of cake picking me up, you were pretty wrong too.
And now, Kai is partnerless... But she has almost all of the project done. And she will continue to work on it on sunday and monday. She's doing awesome without you.
Thanks for nothing, idiot.
TL;DR, kai started her networks project with a guy who didn't really want to work and just wanted to either pick her up, or have her do the work for him. It didn't work. Kai is doing awesome alone thx.
And yes, I want someone to give me a Teal Deer as an LJ gift.
EDIT: Yes, I actually bought myself a teal deer with an old as crap gift certificate xD
