Sadly, this is gonna look a lot like a "to do" list -- maybe because it is.

Spanish
--final draft of essay (due Tues.)
--Cuban Science Fiction (due next Mon.)
Chemistry
--Group IV project
00--lab write-up (Sat.)
00--experiment (Wed.)
00--powerpoint presentation (by next Mon.)
--IB lab write-up
--homework (due Thurs.)
English
--World Lit formatted (due Tues.)
--Review King Lear
History
--Internal Assessment first draft (due Fri.)
--Road to War reading (due Mon.)
Calculus
--homework (due ?)

I've started on the internal assessment for history, and the world lit papers for English.  We're meeting about the Group IV project in Chem today (actually in about an hour) and I've mostly written up my individual lab.  My Spanish esay and the Road to War chapter are the only long-term things on this list that I haven't started yet.  But I'd better get going, especially if I want to go to the movies tonight.

Later remind me to tell the story of my Berkeley interview that's next week and not today.

Oh man. You got up early for an interview that didn't happen, didn't you?

Yeah. I saw the wrong date on the paper. Not just me, my mom and dad also somehow failed to realize that we were heading up on the wrong day. When so many people make the exact same mistake, I think I was just cursed. Or that the paper it's printed out on spontaneously changed the days on me.

More likely the latter.

My History Internal Assessment is about insane people. Tell me that doesn’t rock out loud.

I hate you -- that's way too cool. Mine has to do with the League of Nations. We were required by my teacher to write about something related to either international organizations, causes/practices/effects of war, or totalitarianism -- but not in the West. So I'm writing about the League's involvement in Palestine. But if he hadn't limited us to the non-Western world, I would be writing about T. S. Eliot (he counts as an effect of WWI for sure).

Aaagh. Limitations are not cool. Gulde just told us to write on whatever we wanted from 1840s-modern day. I couldn't do stem cells, because Gulde says that's way too concentrated in the past ten years or so. So I chose to do my paper on British Asylums.

But geeze. I hope that your paper isn't too painful.

Eh, could be worse. I actually like the League of Nations, because I think that seeing how it failed gives us good ways to improve the United Nations. If I could write on any topic, it would be literary, no doubt about it. Maybe a comparison of poetry that followed WWI and WWII, so that I could compare Eliot and Ginsberg? *evil laugh* I'll write it someday anyway, even if it's just for fun.

(Potentially I belong in a British asylum for saying this, but some day I want to go through the books on my shelves and write up scholarly analyses of them.)
