Creeper Status

My creepiness has been at an all time low this week. It's unnatural for me to be like this. It is inborn in me to be creepy considering I am on publications and that my friends are creepers too!
I blame my lack of creepiness this week on two things.
1. It was deadline week. I get nothing done on these weeks because they are so crazy.
2. I was working super hard on homework this week because I was getting everything done early. It was weird because I (of all people) avoided procrastination this week.

But for all those people that are worried on my creeper status it will go into effect full throttle this week.

but yet...

Here's some deja vu for all my followers.
IT'S DEADLINE WEEK! (YET AGAIN)
And this deadline is the same as they are all but yet different
It's a lot of work but yet it's not
Everything is unorganized but yet it is
Everything is unfinished but yet many things are finished
There is virtually no design to check but yet there is alignment to check

but yet in the end, the one thing that gets me through the stress is McDonald's Diet Coke provided to me by the very generous Allison (oh yeah, someone remind me to pay her back...oops)

Deadline week is stressful but yet...........actually there is no "but yet" in this case because it's stressful no matter what.

Deadline Week

So as my fellow editor, Elena, said...
"Deadline week, there's a reason the word dead is in it."
And that is in fact true!!
It was just as stressful as the other two deadlines that we have had already.
And since we are finished (well not technically, but it's a long story so lets not talk about it) I decided to reward myself with some retail therapy.
Here is how I rewarded myself...
I got this new magnetic nailpolish called Layla Magneffect.
My first try didn't turn out so well, but I'm learning how to use it and it's looking so cool.
It's about $15.99 (expensive, I know)
But I thought that I needed it after a stressful week at Quiver.


By the way, I would totally recommend this to anyone, it's that awesome.

It's almost one o'clock in the morning and...

It's almost one o'clock in the morning and I'm still up.

Why?

Well it's deadline week (enough said) and I got home at 8:15ish today and I have a paper due Friday.

But April, why would you worry about a paper due Friday when today is only Wednesday?

Well let me explain this one to you.
As I have already stated, this week is deadline week. Pages are due on Friday for the plant. Out of the twenty-seven spreads we are turning in Friday, thirteen have to be fixed due to problems. So that means that we have to recheck thirteen spreads again tomorrow night. Which means that it will be a late night tomorrow. Which then means that I have to finish my paper tonight because my paper is due at nine o'clock tomorrow night.
So all in all, I HAD TO DO MY PAPER TONIGHT.
There was no other option, believe me, because if there was a way out of doing this paper tonight I would have found that escape route and jumped right out of it.
So adios amigos, I'm going to bed!
