Another day, another fray

So, what happened today? Like a magnet, school keeps pulling me back. I went by and got the signatures on my last three timesheets, which I finally submitted. Paperwork. What a bother. It's a good thing I don't depend on the money I get from tutoring or I would be a poor student indeed, in more than one meaning of the word.

Started studying seriously for my Sci Fi lit final, which is Friday. A chunk of memorization, which is mostly tedious but necessary, since I know Art will focus on information which he has posted in his study guide. He let slip that it is also some text from a lecture he gave to an intercollegiate conference a couple of years ago, so it is obvious that he thinks a lot of it.

While he was talking about his presentation, I let slip that I had been asked to be part of a presentation that an ESL teacher here is going to give at this year's conference. I don't know if it pulled him down or me up in his eyes, but I do know he was surprised. I'll make sure I run into him when we are all hobnobbing in Williamsburg this fall.

This journal business is kind of cool. I have to keep making regular postings so I get into the habit of it. Problem may be that with the start of summer, there will be less specific activity to write about. Still, it's fun. Thanks to frien' Benn for putting me onto it.
