Shold be studying...
Man, I should be studying right now. The only reason I'm down here is because Emiko needed the Ling Power point to practise her part. That's another thing I should be doing. I always try to start this stuff earlier...
I have my presentation tomorrow, we're first. That ashould be fun. At least they won't be like "these guys are ok, they're just not as good as that other group". Worst case scenario we make the next people look better. But I'm pretty sure we've nailed this one. I mean, our data and concepts are all sound, so all that was left was to interpret them in conjunction with each other, which basically means we can say whatever we like so long as it agrees with what our interviewees said. So we can't really go wrong. But it's still public speaking in front of the whole class (read=everyone, not just tutorial like I thought for so long. Rude awakening that was...)
And then, later tomorrow night, I have a terms test for Psychology which I haven't studied for appart from looking at some questions with Sam this afternoon. We paniked for ages looking at the questions before we realised that those were the ones for the stuff we hadn't studied yet and wouldn't be asked about this time. I have to say that made me feel so much better. I was on the verge of tears because it was so hard and I had so much reading to catch up on, Sam doesn't cry, but he was feeling the same way. It's way more fun to have someone else in my class to study with and what not. And he's Lacey's boyfriend which means that he, like me, is always up on Ivan's floor, so I can always find him.
He's trying to convince me to take Sports Psyc next year so we can help each other, but I'm not sure if that's enough of an incentive to make me do that. I haven't seen what the other papers are yet because my enrolement guide (the big book with all the papers in it) hasn't arrived yet... Grr.
The other day I went to the careers advice place to ask how long I have to take a subject for to be able to teach it at highschool level, but I arrived a 4.05 and the actual advice part of the day finished at 4. So I had to come back another day. I haven't been bothered to go back yet, so no more news on what I'm doing next year. I really do'nt want to take another history paper if it'll be as boring as the one I'm doing is, but if I only have to take say, one a year, then I'll just bite the bullet and do it. 6 months of torture is worth it if it means I'll get a better job I think.
Well, I think that's as long as I can justify. Maybe I can convince my self that I should start after dinner...
