(no subject)
Today involved allergy shots, getting blood drawn for routine blood work tests that I have not had for years, and forgetting during the 20 minutes during which this whole process took place that I should try to find the sleep doctor's office and schedule an appointment. >_> I should call tomorrow about that.
The blood drawn thing was rather off-putting because I've had bad experiences giving blood, and now whenever I'm around free-flowing blood, I feel rather ill. Still, I looked only at my school book (The Golden Compass--how cool is my class?!?! ^___^), and focused on reading that (I do not remember a word) while the actual drawing blood happened. Two minutes later, all done.
Class afterward was fun too. I need to finish the trilogies we read the first books of this semester. Especially since in two of the three trilogies, I did my nasty habit of reading the first two books and not the third. (Is this anxiety related? Or perhaps a deep love for characters and an unwillingness to know conclusively that the world will blow up in their faces entirely and they will be Changed?)
I need to make a homework schedule I can carry around with me. The due dates are all on my online calendar...but I need something I can print off, then write on. I am a very hands-on person, and while having everything digital is great for access...for some reason it's harder for me to focus on or remember non-appointment things when they're not in an organized offline place, too.
I met my advisor this week and updated her on my work status, since thankfully she's been in the relapse loop this whole time. While I was with her, I chose which classes from my list that I would take next semester (yay!), realized that my choices would not allow me to take the non-credit course "Writing For Children" (;__;), and got an update on my Shakespeare course status.
I have no grade for it, officially, which is lucky for me. I'll have to re-take the class, but I like Shakespeare, and hopefully by this summer I'll not be insane anymore, so the paper writing will come easier. That means I'll be graduating (most likely) in Summer 2010.
Dear Career Office,
I need a day job. Help?
Frightened of energy-sapping drudgery that lasts a lifetime,

In other news, I talked to my awesome big sister today, and am figuring out crafty projects to do with some friends. ...I should really plan things out better. I guess it all starts with the homework calendar though.
I'll get on that now. >_>
