List for Today:

1.  Linguistics exam.

One down, two to go. My exam is in two hours-- I really wish that we hadn't been given the extension. But whatever. C'est la vie, vrai? But, after the exam I'll work on my Studies in Fiction paper-- I think it should take me three hours to do, and then ( Read more... )

Here's what I need to do today. I have lots of homework and studying to do, and lists keep me on track. I've got my goofin' around out of the way by watching a couple eps of The Venture Bros, and knitting. The scarf is getting long!!

I hate my linguistics homework-- it feels too much like math homework.  I've already transcribed about 40 words into their IPA spellings, and now I need to transcribe a part of a novel (50 words). I'm not even sure if my prof is collecting homework. So, I'll do it really quick and just get it over with. The novel I'll transcribe from is Sellevision ( Read more... )

Yesterday while I was having lunch I was reminded of Mitch Hedburg. I had Subway, and as I was eating I thought, "Ha ha, Sunchips!" and as I was drinking my pop, I thought, "Oh, it's a bendy straw, this bitch is not sane." Of course, I often think of the Subway duck joke, especially when I go into a Subway, but how strange that I should have kept ( Read more... )

Starting next week I have papers to write. Actually, my first paper is due Tuesday night for my Studies in Fiction class. I emailed my prof for clarification for the assignments in her class, and now I'm excited for the presentation to Northanger Abbey. I pulled this thesis out of nowhere as an example, and my prof said she's excited about it. That ( Read more... )

So ... I've finished reading novels in my Brit Lit. class (ya! no more Tess, which is just sad to me now than infuriating ... I never cared for drama.) this week in my Minority Lit. class we don't have a novel to read, and instead have to watch "Crash" ... and write a paper. So, I have free time? How did this happen?

It's fortunate since I can use ( Read more... )

It is amazing how small Monroe is! And it is amazing how creepy older guys are. Did I forget why I hate the myspace sometimes? Creepy older guy sending me a message saying I'm beautiful (duh, yeah) and asking how I'm doing. .... Doing good until I read that. 28 with a kid. What do I look like, someone's mama? I am no one's mama and have no desire ( Read more... )

The two papers due tomorrow are done. I haven't started my American Lit. paper yet. The "draft" is due on Friday ... I have a novel (The Inheritance of Loss) to read in two days and have the questions to which done by Saturday night ... my teacher says it's a hard read. Also, this weekend I need to get caught up on my American Lit readings. Mainly ( Read more... )

I don't know why I think I can do homework when I go home for the weekend. I can't. It's impossible. Simply impossible!

I had so much fun this trip home-- I saw everyone, even people I didn't expect to run into. Like Dr. McCloskey at the Barrel, Jill at Meijer, and even Sarah while driving on Monroe St. Crazy.

April's wedding was so much fun! I love ( Read more... )
