4.5 pages until FREEDOM.  And yet I think I might not be able to meet the 10 page limit.  If I can just make it to the 9th page, I will be happy.  My mind is fried, it's ready for vacation.  Alright, let's get the misery over with.

In a couple hours I will be taking my last Spanish test.  I should be studying but I think I'm good.  This test will be MUCH easier than the last.  The last test was Preterite and Imperfect past tenses.  I always get them confused.  Usually, it's the preterite so that's my default answer.  You would think by now I would get it-a little.  Oh, well ( Read more... )

Only 3 papers to go and a Spanish Final.  Friday we only did the composition part of the test.  Monday we take the fill in the blank kind of final.  Should be alright.  1 paper is only 5 pages on Mele's work.  2.5 pages summarize + 2.5 pages critique = EASY.  Politics of Literacy paper I intend to finish this weekend.  Then Philosophy paper due ( Read more... )

this term is almost over and I cannot wait.  I do not have finals in any of my classes.  BUT, I do have a revision of a paper and 2 other papers due.  And a Spanish test Friday.  But all this is very manageable.  I knew when I sent my Politics of Literacy paper that it was not the best of my ability and I was not happy with it.  Dr. D recognized ( Read more... )

In the computer lab again.  Writing notes for a story I am writing for "Classical Backgrounds of Western Literature."  Quite a mouthful.  This is a fun assignment for me.  It's a game.  The object of the game is to write an awesome story that incorporates themes from the class.  Already have most of what I'm writing about.  My one weakness though ( Read more... )

I am indeed going to drop Contemporary British Fiction and take Wind and Percussion Literature instead.  That should be an enjoyable and easy class.  Graduating semester is no time to take too many courses.  So I finally feel tired but I cannot sleep until my Politics of Literacy paper is complete, or at least mostly complete.  Should not be ( Read more... )

So here are the classes I am taking next term ( Read more... )

Skipping Spanish to do what?  Nothing, really.  But that class is boring.  I'll go to "Politics of Literacy" just because.  Figured out my schedule, hopefully.  That's if I get into all the classes I want/need.  The only class I absolutely need to graduate is Symbolic Logic and Current Applications in Biology.  Logic has 45 spots and only 5 are ( Read more... )

Back from visiting family for Thanksgiving.  We saw Granny Ruth, who looks very old and probably has only a couple years to live.  Claire had a good time.  The only thing I missed was mashed potatoes.  I love mom's mashed potatoes but we weren't able to make them this year because she's having her kitchen retiled and Granny Ruth's stove didn't work ( Read more... )

Just finished the notes for "The Beast in the Jungle."  Now I need to take some notes on "Self-Deception Unmasked."  then I am going to slam the two together to make a 10 page draft.  I really hate this project.  It is not enjoyable, not something I really want to write, not even an argument I necessarily agree with.  but there you have it:  ( Read more... )
