The weekend is now over and I have a long week of classes ahead. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the bio lab I have on Wednesday. I've never been too fond of labs, since I tend to do horribly on them, though my lab reports are usually decent enough. I still have to do the prep so I'm planning on doing that tomorrow when I get home.
In other news I uploaded the prologue to a new story on ff.net a few hours ago. It's called
Quid Pro Quo. I hope I'll be able to get the fic done by the end of the month to upload it. I'm making a serious effort this year to keep on top of my studies. I've never handed anything in late but I have a nasty habit of procrastinating and doing things that sate my own enjoyment (like writing) instead of doing things that are more pressing like essays. For the first year there won't be many essays if any, because of the class sizes so all my marks are going to be based on four exams and a class participation/ course involvement of some sort. That kind of worries me, especially for math and bio, what with everything being cumulative and all.
But so far my plan at not procrastinating hasn't been going so well, I mean, right now I should be sleeping so I'm not a zombie in class tomorrow morning and yet here I am typing away and not even remotely to the point of such physical exhaustion that I'd be able to fall asleep.
I'm not an insomniac as far as I'm aware, but seriously I rarely find myself sleeping at night when I'm supposed to. I sometimes spend hours at a time waiting to fall asleep and cursing my waste of precious time. Waking hours are meant to me spent doing things, not waiting idly for the sandman to come tape your eyes shut and force non-benzodiazepine hypnotics into your system.
Anyway, I'm going to go drown my brain cells in the droning teachings of Confucius for my East Asian Studies class (lecture tomorrow and tutorial on Thursday) It’s not like I have anything against him or his wisdom, but I studied him already in World Religions back in tenth grade and am not really in the mood to analyze him again. There isn’t enough time to waste learning the same stuff twice in one lifetime.
