Apologies to people who aren't hearing from me lately
So I have ten more days of classes left for winter intercession.
I want to extend my apologies to everyone that might feel I've been ignoring them lately.
I'm really not, I promise. I was just stupid enough to take two very intensive, condensed classes that are eating my brain. Believe me, I'm sure getting back on to a "normal" scholastic schedule is going to feel like a vacation after this. Not to mention, strangely lately I've been hit by art bunnies more frequently than I have in a long while. So weird~~! But i stare at the computer and books for so long with these classes that when I'm finished all I want to do are things totally not related to them D:
And even with all the work I'm putting into these classes, I'm still pretty sure that I'm going to get a very low grade in my Politics class, simply because of the way it is set up, all timed tests and no real analysis or discussion besides the three assigned essays. I am HORRIBLE at timed tests, especially when they reference obscure details rather than the larger concepts we learn. I think I would have preferred both of these classes to be writing intensive, since even if it would have been more work I would get better grades in Politics because I DO understand the material, but I just do horribly on timed tests. /excuses
Also, something that has been frustrating me for a while now: UGH. WHY IS IT WHEN I HAVE TO DO OTHER THINGS I FINALLY GET THE URGE TO WRITE AND DRAW. WHY, BRAIN, WHY?! I cannot indulge in Earthbound writing-splurge when there is an essay due, nor can I pander to art bunnies when I have to do an article analysis for world history (even if Hetalia is "related" to world history!). And plot bunnies, especially ones for Trent Stone, are always enjoyable but are not useful when I'm supposed to be reading politic texts. ARGH.
