Not literally of course. I am in the process of writing a major research paper for one of my classes, and I have simply forgotten how to make a transition from a paragraph to another. Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't know. So Katie told me to take a break. It is 12:15 in the morning and I am only half done and it is now due today. I am finally ( Read more... )

I sit here now in the library waiting for Katie to get out of class. I got out of my exceptional class at 6 tonight which was very nice, but also sad. I loved that class. I also had a meeting with my research professor today and she expressed once again how impressed she was with my research proposal. She asked me if I really hadn't done ( Read more... )

I got out of my last funny band for the term, which means the end is in sight.

Well I took advantage of staying home again today. I am such a bumb. It is NCMEA conference time down here and I don't have a car to go, so I just stayed home. That's okay though, it is totally not as big of a deal as IMEA is in Illinois. It is so weird that it takes place in November down here. There is always next year to go ( Read more... )

So I decided to stay home from work today. I made myself a very large to do list and brought home everything from school that I needed to get my crap done. It is now 11:15 and I have not done anything. Why you may ask? Because I am a huge bumb and just WOKE UP!! What is wrong with me? I got up early to take Scott to school so I could have his ( Read more... )
