Today: Started well, ended poorly

Sep 09, 2013 23:18

In an attempt to hold myself accountable to some faceless internet without overwhelming my fb feed, I am going to post daily about what I got done and what I didn't get done. Hopefully it will motivate me and encourage me by showing me that things are in fact getting taken care of, even if I don't always get every day's tasks accomplished. I'm also going to put up a post for yesterday, because it was my first full day back, and I can.

Big Things that Need Doing in Small Pieces
Due 10/15 (but really 9/15): Woodrow Wilson Fellowship application - 9 parts
Due 10/15: Revise prospectus - so many parts
Due 9/20: Collecting visa renewal application documents - many parts
Due starting 9/23: Revamp syllabus - choose texts, write up comprehension sheets, revise lessons

Today's tasks
Pick up lesson materials from university
Revise lessons for weeks 1 and 2
Choose texts, write up comprehension sheets
Week 1 materials to copy shop
Print Groupon, train tickets
BnF - Couldn't go, because they're closed for two weeks. In September. Wtf?
Read 4 works on pedagogy/medieval theory on women readers - see above
Create network map for thesis
Order books
ILL anything on list not available at BnF
Email landlord for visa documents
Work on fellowship proposal - I looked at the website, I wrote things down. This counts, right?
Vacuum
Dye hair?

Things I've learned: I really, honestly do need to use the nuclear option on the StayFocused app. *sigh*

Tomorrow's schedule

11-1: Fellowship
1-2: Errands
2-4: Thesis
4-5: Errands

Doesn't that just look like the funnest day ever?
