readingredheadWell. Right now I should be studying for either History or English (probably history, seeing as how my final is tomorrow) but I really have no drive or desire to do so. I'm on campus because I was planning on going to my English professor's office hours, but I came too early because I got the wrong time, so I'm sitting in the library and trying to forget about school.
I'm really not too worried, and I don't need to be. But there's some work I need to do, some things I want to figure out, before the history final. I don't want to be learning things the day of -- that just seems too last-minute to me, even though considering that my final isn't until 5pm I've got a lot of time in which to study "the day of."
Right now, my plan is to write essay outlines for each of the six (yes, six) essays I may potentially be required to write tomorrow. I'll only have to write two of them, but I still think that's two too many. I've got a good grade in the class but if I want a solid A in the class I need a solid A on the final. I'm pretty sure I can do it, but still...I think the problem is that I'm used to going into the final with a cushion. I'm used to thinking, "Well, it doesn't really matter because I only need to get a C on this to keep my A in the class." Also, here an A- is different from an A in terms of reporting GPA, and therefore I see no reason why I should be getting A-'s. I think I can get a 4.0 here just like I could at Mission.
So, plan for the rest of the day:
1. Study English while still in the library
2. Go to Goldsmith's office hours at 2pm and talk with him until I have no excuse to be talking with him any more
3. Pick up stuff from PE locker and return tae kwon do uniform
4. Return to Clark Kerr and begin writing history essay outlines
5. Eat dinner
6. Get dressed up pretty and go see The Nutcracker with Rebecca
7. Come back to Clark Kerr and fall asleep listening to my history lectures on podcast.
And still, that doesn't seem like I'm studying enough. Oh well.
In a final bit of news, today was actually my last day at the NaNo headquarters. The guys there are so awesome -- I know I'll be going back to help them with whatever it is they may need, provided I have the time. It really depends on how next semester turns out, but I'd love to help them with Script Frenzy. Mostly because how often do you find people who are really that cool? Not often enough.
Okay. So. Now I'm going to go do something. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
