So what does one feel at 5 PM after finally finishing something that one's been working on for more then 16 hours straight?

Some background information before you answer. These last few weeks i've been working on a project, nothing new you might say right? Well this project was and is very interesting because no one knows what this website application does, or why someone would use it. All i had to guide me where 3 text files one for each type of member aka user,moderator and admin. Now these files detailed what screens each user has access to and what actions can be performed. One might say that this is enough but the fact that we could not sum up what this project was in one word made me feel really uncomfortable. After awhile though i decided to ignore that feeling and start coding each screen, one by one.

This was a case of build it and they shall come. My biggest problem was that i have exceed the deadline by quite some time. So feeling the pressure i decided to finish this no matter what it would take. Which brings us to yesterday, after working 10 hours straight i stop and went home where i continued my work till 4AM a time where i only had 2 more screens to code but i was too tired to actually do them so i shut down my laptop and off i was into dream land. Today i continued my work and by 4:30 PM the client was knocking the heck out off my Yahoo Messenger Window and i was like...give me 30min more and wouldn't you know it in 40 minutes i was already half way through uploading my files to the server.

So what do you feel when you delivery something?Euphoria.
