I'm back in school today, yay! Too much work to catch up on though. I did hear that my linguistics final will probably be take-home and that our last linguistics paper might be cancelled. There is also a slight chance that my history final will be cancelled, though I doubt it. For now, though I'll just concentrate on my Ed paper and getting ( Read more... )

The faculty is on strike at my university and I've been on tv twice and on the radio because I'm very involved in the student solidarity committee. That's nothing though compared to the things I've found out today. My ex-boyfriend's father just committed suicide and my ex is going to have a baby in June, he's already heard the heartbeat and seen ( Read more... )

So I'm avoiding work as I write this. I have a paper due tomorrow night and I can't work on it during the day tomorrow because I have to do service hours. The faculty will be on strike as of 12:01 am on Friday at my school, so I can't put off my paper and turn it in next week. I've worked so hard this semester, I hope everything works out okay ( Read more... )

I can't stop thinking about Ian, it's a great feeling to have someone who cares so much about you and that you care a lot about. Luckily, we won't have too much time apart. I finally got a placement for my observation for my Ed class. I'm doing very well in all my classes, although I am having some very fearful thoughts, given that I've had such ( Read more... )

I'm doing great in school, I may even pull straight A's this semester, a major turnaround, considering that I basically failed out of my last school. I'm also making a lot of friends, which is great. The frustration though is that I've been bragging that my family is getting along great in this living situation, but that is starting to change. I ( Read more... )

Well, I managed to get my Linguistics paper done, it was really short and a lot easier than I expected. However, I have a quiz in History Tuesday and as I'm writing this, I should be studying, but I really don't feel like it. I also should be doing bullet points for my IDEA project and reading my Child Development book. I haven't felt this lazy ( Read more... )

So, I know that my history reading should be interesting because it's all about everything horrible our ancestors did to the Native Americans, but I just can't read through all the details, especially the military documents. I've decided that Sunday is a bad day to try to get anything done because it means that Monday's coming. This means that a ( Read more... )

So Ian's making me write this as he's ignoring me on the phone reading someone else's journal. Now, for the real news. I got my first assignment back in history and I did A work, great start to the semester. Bad news is that one of my moms tenants who has become a good friend's visa extension was denied, so he may have to leave almost ( Read more... )

I just wanted to warn anyone who was thinking about seeing Wicker Park not to, it doesn't make much sense and it's really long.

So the day didn't start out so great, but it ended woderfully. My brother woke me early this morning to ask for the car and then didn't even use it. Then I got the wrong room number for my history class and was about 20 minutes late, luckily the prof. seems pretty cool and said that he makes allowances for parking and not being able to find a ( Read more... )
