Note: The title mainly comes from ‘PCOC’, which stands for ‘Perfect Completion of Coursework’. Also, it suits the slight information about Peacock Farm (near the Space Ship), which I heard two days ago (but didn't record).
In the small hours, I listened to ‘Bright Eyes’ and some ‘Command & Conquer’ songs - ‘Canyon Chase’, ‘Airstrike’ and ‘Roll Out’. Eventual sleep at 04:20.
Woken up by alarm at 08:12, but got up at 09:45.
Sorted the washed clothes.
Had breakfast. Updated diary. Then it was 11:20.
Eventually got Lai coursework1 under way, then it was 13:20.
‘Fire in the Kilt’ track 14 was in my head for now, instead of ‘Bright Eyes’.
Slightly updated diary (5 mins).
Dinner – Tuna and cheese toasties.
‘Fire in the Kilt’ track 18 then went into my head when I was trying to cancel out the feeling that ‘Bright Eyes’ gives me, as that feeling was stopping my motivation to complete coursework. Unfortunately, ‘Fire in the Kilt’ songs are indifferent to ‘Bright Eyes’, so it didn't stop the feeling.
But I managed to get out of the feeling by various combinations, and that included listening to the ‘Fortree City and Hoenn Secret Base’ music on repeat.
From about 14:40 to 15:20, the theme was ‘Sudden Strike’ track 9 (which I called ‘Mansion’).
From about 15:20 to 16:40, I listened to others, mostly ‘Radioactivity’ (Minimum Maximum version by Kraftwerk) (Repeating) (which is an RPT theme – RPT stands for repeating), and did the majority of Lai Coursework1.
From about 16:40 to 17:20 the theme went back to ‘Sudden Strike’ track 9.
Tea – Quorn and spaghetti lines
(canned spaghetti with tomato sauce), with cabbage. The can of spaghetti lines
was one of the things from the Yeoman's box of supplies.
I phoned the Yeoman and the Captain. They were still fine.
Completed Lai Coursework1 and PREN1010 Test 10; all ready for submission except for the Ding2 Coursework.
Eventually I completed Ding2, while listening to ‘Bright Eyes’, then listened to ‘Leave Right Now’ (Will Young). That became one of the sub-themes of the day, along with ‘Sudden Strike’ Track 9, and the two RPT themes I made today: ‘Kraft (RPT)’ and ‘Section of Lone Troop’. They can be found on my YouTube channel (Lyri Metacurl with a green logo).
All courseworks done now. The agenda list for courseworks is now empty - a state it was last in in mid-September 2007.
I made a playlist for this legendary day. First ‘Bright Eyes’, then ‘Sudden Strike’ Track 9 twice, then ‘Kraft (RPT)’ for 1 minute, then ‘Leave Right Now’.
The day seemed to last loads and loads longer than the 6th of December 2007 (which was renwoned for feeling very long), and I eventually left it to history (or at least I'd better once I finish writing here). The time is 27:47 (a.k.a. 3:47 AM tomorrow). Goodnight everybody.
Note: I decided today that the happiness rating is 99 (the first time I had ever given this rating to a day). Making it the new second-best day on record so far, and beating ‘The Maretarium’ into third place.
