this was bound to happen
I have likely fucked up my chance to attend UW-Madison next year.
It wasn't because I did something illegal, just irresponsible. From 7:30PM last night to 2AM this morning, I worked on finalizing my art paper. I was tired of looking at it and just wanted to get it done and over with. It was supposed to be a 15 page art history research paper, but ended up being 20 (with works cited/endnotes) pages long. I don't know if it's worthy of an A, but I don't think it deserves any lower than a B. And I did pick a pretty original topic, at that.
And because I did that and not really studied for my English final (except for two hours worth this morning), and later had to sacrifice that to get an ink cartridge from Walgreens because my professor refused using two-sides to the paper which is the default at the library and impossible to get off the setting. So, anyways, I did that and was slightly confident going into my English final.
The first essay wasn't so bad; I could see maybe an 85% on that. The second one--oh god. I didn't read two of the texts and one of them I assumed the epiphany involved was that the character figured out that it was a hole in the wall they were staring at or something. If I get anywhere between a 75-80% I'll consider it a miracle.
Aaagghghhh I hate finals. X((((
