Results of finals are in: A, A, A, and A-minus. Freaking yeah. And I probably could have scored a full A on that last class if I had actually given a shit about the last few assignments, but y'know? That is life. I am so totally fine with it. I am DONE. (Until spring, but I am taking short term off, so I get four extra weeks of freedom. Four ( Read more... )

Oh jeez. I have been up since 6:30 this morning, and this is the first opportunity I've had to sit down and goof off. And if you know me or anything about the way I usually procrastinate, you know that I need my goofing off time. It's kind of nice, though, because this hectic schedule has made me realize that I can handle it; in fact, I feel ( Read more... )

My "Writing Life Stories" class is currently kicking my ass. It's much easier to write thousands of words if it's fiction -- if it's fiction, I know where exactly where one piece of story ends and another begins. With my own life, I feel like I'm spewing gallons of unnecessary detail and cutesy anecdotes straight onto the page. Poor page. I ( Read more... )

Yay, yuletide!! How awesome is Yuletide this year? (see bottom of post for answer ( Read more... )

- Turns out my three-hour design class is much more fun when I have a chance to get caffeine first. I grabbed coffee and a muffin, headed to class, and sat down for a lengthy group critique. WITH COFFEE. So I actually had smart stuff to say. Which was awesome ( Read more... )

...I currently happen to be. Woot! It is SUMMER. Finals are over. I think I did fairly well overall... I got an A on my final project (a self-portrait) for drawing class, along with a very long note from my art teacher that made me smile for like, an hour. And I totally didn't flunk math ( Read more... )

Oh my god, I had a presentation today that I had been dreading for, literally, weeks... and I clicked. I totally knew my stuff and I didn't flub up more than a couple times and at least a fourth of the class looked interested! I rule. And even better? I had built this presentation up SO MUCH in my mind that after this, finals sound way easy ( Read more... )

I should really not go home this weekend -- I have lots of crap to do and two different study groups to get together with -- but if I do not get out of this place in the next twenty-four hours, something is going to get kicked in the head. Really hard. I think avoidance of assault charges gets priority over homework, at least this time ( Read more... )

I got about two hours of sleep last night, and have only been able to make up three hours through naps this afternoon. And my school's network is down and I am internet and email impaired, and unable to catch up on my math homework (because the problems I need to do are on the class's website) and unable to email my advisor (whose time slots for ( Read more... )

I have just finished season five of the Gilmore Girls. I don't know how I'll be able to cope without this show. I love it to death: I overidentify with almost every character, and the ones I can't identify with, I associate with other people I know. I am Rory. I am Lorelai. I am Lane. I am Kirk uhh, Paris. I am -- okay, the overidentifying ( Read more... )
