Yes, I definitely cried during my last Step Sing. Oddly, I teared up more during "In My Life" than "Bread and Roses": ... guys, "In My Life" is a sad, sad song! And I finally got to sing "Bread and Roses" (I was in class during one of my Senior Step Sings, and at work for the other, so I only got to sing B&R once. *sob*.

As lovely as it has been to relax, I had the irritating realization today that I still have two finals to do. Urgh. Urrrrggghhh. In addition to several other minutiae that I must take care of in the next two weeks. Like preparing to move. And getting a car. And getting a job. And so much stuff.

Haven't had a fever in over 24 hours. I think I'm on the road to recovery! However, my sense of time is really, really screwed up, from spending so much time asleep/semi-conscious/sick. I'm... not sure how long I've even been here.

I actually managed to get some work done on my thesis, today, too. (HOLY SHIT BATMAN, REALLY?) and talked to my ( Read more... )

I finished my papers, and my exam (that got turned in an hour late but my professor hardly seemed to mind), so I'm all and totally DONE for the semester, which feels great.

Or. Should feel great, right? So why am I still totally stressing out? I'm obsessing over the age-old Senior in College Question, what the hell am I going to do once I ( Read more... )

I've been sitting on Justin's couch writing papers for about 24 hours now - well, with breaks for sleep, shopping, and way too much TV watching in between. But I think I'm making progress:

Toni Morrison is at 2/12-15.

BECAUSE OH MY GOD. Toni Morrison only has to be 12-15 pages, not the 18-20 that I originally anticipated!I have like, no textual ( Read more... )
