Procrastination Station
There's a demon I'm afraid of
It pursues me day and night
At my homework it just cackles,
Of my workload it makes light
For when the night approaches
And the deadlines all draw near
The monster's there just waiting
For its words to pierce my ear
"These problems are so boring,"
It says with loathsome glare,

People
So this weekend I went on college visits. In between the colleges, my mom and I visited with relatives and friends. In Chicago, we stayed with my mom's brother and his wife.

Fantastic day
So the U.S. history test went really well and I realized just how effective the whole taking-notes-on-a-well-written-book thing is in making me learn the material. I remembered practically nothing from 8th grade (names of people and acts and battles stuck out occasionally, but I didn't really remember anything relevant about them), but I'll ( Read more... ) -
I <3 Portle
So Portle and I went to give a recruiting presentation for Mr. Bayless's M4 honors class because the people scheduled to do it hadn't shown up yet and the period was almost over (turns out Mrs. Roe was a test nazi and wouldn't let one of them out until later...) So anyway, I got through most of the presentation on the powerpoint without Portle ( Read more... )
