The Lone Skylinez – Season 3 – Episode 004: Emotions, Ups, and Down

Busy, that is the word. Being rushing assignment this pass few weeks. On last week, the entire labs equipment is down. I mean, not all actually, but only two cabinets of equipment are fully functioning. We have around 26 routers, 18 switches, and 6 hubs in the labs. One cabinet consist of 4 routers, 3 switches, and 1 hub. The assignment requires us to use 3 or 4 routers, 3 switches, and 4 PC to run the experiment. But on that particular week, non cabinet have all those requirement fulfilled except 2. They have either 2 routers functioning, or not enough cable, and PC setting gone. The baddest idiot is the one who put password to lock the configuration mode.

When the router is lock with a password, we need to reset the router. It is quite complicated process, where u needs to perform a power shut and several reset command. At the end of the command, if you type the wrong file name for the command “copy run start” into “copy run tart”… The router somehow overwrite the start file with tart file, hence the startup OS is overwritten and gone. I forgot how the concept works, but all I know u are dealing with an empty router, like a formatted empty PC with no OS, only BIOS. We usually perform our testing in Ellison Building lab C005. But we have another undergraduate lab in another building across the road. It is known as Pandon Building. They have the similar equipment but in much more small scale. But it is adequate to perform the experiment. There is a few number know the existence of this particular lab, I knew it because I did my undergrad networking subject here. So, I went there to perform the test with my friend Zach.

On the last week, the lab existence was exposed. When I went there late, the lab is already full, but luckily got 1 more space for me. Most of them did the work in groups, but I think it is kinda hard because me and Zach got conflict with the IP address and method of acquiring evidence. So we split up, it work much easier. We manage to finish and submit the report on time. I also took the luxury to take a few pictures on the routers I set up and also the game lab. The game lab is specially designed for game programming students only. Sometimes, I saw a bunch of them using them to play games. See them playing games there like playing games in CC rather then programming games.

Unrequited Love(source wikipedia)

Unrequited love is love that is not reciprocated, even though reciprocation is usually deeply desired. This can lead to feelings such as depression, anxiety, and mood swings such as swift changes between depression. The expression is nowadays usually used in a negative sense, but even today there are many people who knowingly or unknowingly accidentally live in or even purposely strive for a frame of mind.

Falling in love produces a very different hormonal and psychological state than that of an established, mature love, even when such an older love is very happy and fulfilling. Many people crave this feeling so badly that they repeatedly look for new objects of infatuation and even break off old relations when this causes them great emotional trauma (often repressed). Many accidentally discover the much less traumatic ways of attaining the "high" they crave by flirting or by looking for an unattainable object of love. Especially poets and other artists often do this deliberately — in fact, many are not able to be productive otherwise — and they often know that this way of loving and living was much more common in past centuries.

For probably most people, however, being in unrequited love is a torturous experience. For them too, however, it can simultaneously be a source of great joy, sometimes providing the lover a sense of fulfillment for having somebody to love, even though that love is not returned. The lover may feel this satisfaction is worth the emotional distress they must suffer. They may prefer to stay in love rather than move on. However, for the majority it can be a very frustrating and upsetting situation to be in.

When you tell your partner about your unrequited love, the following are likely to happen

· you become closer.

· The status quo remains the SAME

· There will be awkwardness in the beginning but things return to normal.

· THE FRIENDSHIP ENDS

Unrequited love may last a very long time, as long as a few decades. But the lover's feelings usually reach a breaking point and the love ends. The following are reasons why unrequited love can end.

· The lover receives reciprocation from the loved

· The feelings subside.

· The lover acknowledges that their feelings will never be returned.

· The lover channels their devotion towards another person.

Unrequited love can result in obsessive behavior such as stalking and even transform into hostility toward the object of desire if the love is rejected, though this behavior really is more of an exceptionality than the norm, and is usually rooted in much deeper problems than a broken heart. These sorts of behavior can lead the afflicted person to be seen as "perverted" or to a lesser extent, simply "creepy". Conversely, unrequited love has also been the inspiration for and topic of many great works of art. Such works have brought hope and inspiration to the lovelorn and romantically inclined for centuries. Whether a particular case of unrequited love is interpreted by an observer (or by the love's object) as being sweet or creepy is a complex and subjective issue.

There is a movement towards making people aware of this as being an illness which leads to many people committing suicide.

This is the emotion I am enduring right now…
