I received this email from my senior seminar prof today:

If you are receiving this message, I have deemed your paper far enough along (and good enough) to be nominated for the College of Liberal Arts Student Recognition Ceremony (Thursday, April 20, 2006 at 3:45). You will get a certification and maybe a hand-shake from the president (sorry, no ( Read more... )

The rough draft of my senior seminar paper is COMPLETEI can't believe it ( Read more... )

You know you want to tell me what you think of my friending skills.And now, back to Senior Seminar. I'm on page 41. Yay me! After today though I'm not going to work on it anymore this break. I want to enjoy Friday and Saturday and not worry about homework anymore. Maybe I should do more, but I'd rather just relax I guess. ( Read more... )

So... does anyone want to buy me North and South?? Lol. ephramyfan, you've got me really interested and I'm going to try to check out the book from the library over spring break, as well as try to hunt down the DVD.

So I've decided... my school shouldn't make you take Senior Seminar your senior year. They should make you take it your junior year... Why you ask? Because... I don't care about this paper anymore. I don't care about the class, and I am just anti-senior seminar right now. I've been working all week on that freaking paper... How many pages do I have ( Read more... )

So I'm working on my senior seminar paper (yes I really am. 2 pages in!) and I'm typing the name of Victor Klemperer, a man who kept a journal during the Nazi occupation, and I typed his first name as Viktor, as in Krum. Lol. I must have typed Viktor way too much these past few months ( Read more... )
