Spring 2009 Academic update
With still two days to go, I won't write up my March-April social updates until Easter. I've got some interesting stories to tell though.
However I think it is a fine time to write up my grades so far this semester, official and unofficial. I'm writing this from a school computer, before I work on an English 5 assignment.
