This is SO frustrating. I have a grant proposal due tomorrow that I can't focus on. I can't make my brain work. It's as if it is crossing its arms and legs, sitting itself down on the floor in a temper-tantrum sort of mood saying, "No. I won't do it. I won't produce words and writing for you!"

I also have 5 essays due in the next three weeks. Two ( Read more... )

Well, I finally finished that paper on Piers Plowman. It was awful. I can certainly think of quite a lot of things I would have done in exchange for not having to write that damn brain. It was as if some little Pac-man thing was chomping away at my brain/head. I'm surprised that I'm still functioning. It's no wonder my cough is back for the night. ( Read more... )

I think my cough is going to kill me. One week later and I am still suffering from it. It hurts, and its keeping me awake. Nothing I take seems to be helping at all. ARGH!!

Well, this is what I get for not paying attention to the syllabus after missing last week's classes. I just spent friggin' $13.00 on a book for a reading assignment that was supposed to be done last week. Now, here I am trying to play catch up like a good little student, and guess what? Last Thursday, I believe, was the last day we were discussing ( Read more... )

I got my essay back today. You know, the one that concerned the question 'What makes us human' according to the Bible, as well as Plato and Socrates. The one that I struggled with profusely. The one that ate my brain and spit it back out. The one I turned in late. Aaaah ( Read more... )

Okay, I've just put out a plea for help to another fellow English major. Now I'm just going to ramble and rant ( Read more... )

Well, first of all, I went to BAGG last Wednedsday, and had a really fun and *interesting* time there (to say the least). I'm sure it was highly entertaining for the audience, and I had lots of fun!, but I am not going to make a detailed report on here. It feels personal, so if anyone wants the details, feel free to let me know or call me and I'll ( Read more... )

I kidnapped the quiz from a friend's page, because. . .gosh darn it! I was just plain curious. (That's my only defense.) ::grins ( Read more... )

You know, for a few short blissful minutes, I really thought my essay was coming together. Suddenly I knew how to organize it and where to go from Point A to Point B, amongst a very complicated subject that is tying my brain into knots. It hurts. Now, I'm stuck again, and am still having difficulty writing about and interpreting the Bible chapters ( Read more... )
