I have two class sessions left and then it is sweet, lazy sailing until the middle of January when all hell breaks loose with regards to school.
I had every intention of spending my long holiday weekend working on the last projects due for class and I think I spent a total of an hour working on homework. One of the things I did instead of working on my paper was to tackle the stack of papers that had started to take over the world. I had stacked all my paperwork from Spring semester on the floor and just kept piling the crap on. Somehow organizing that disaster area and recovering the floor space took up quite a bit of time. I’m not usually quite so slovenly but eh, it happens. Since the majority of the crap on the floor was actual school work, I suppose I could say I spent a little more than 2 hours on school work this weekend.
One of the things I must finish before the sweet end of the semester is a poster. I don’t think I’ve made a poster since I made tons of them in college to attract people to dorm events. There’s a lot more riding on this poster than whether people show up to a kegger. I think I’ll leave the crudely drawn letters and stupid drawings off this poster.
I also have to write the second section of a program plan. I have to figure out budgets and marketing ideas (mmm, maybe a big poster with witty slogans) and I just don’t want to. I consider the first section of the plan to be super fine and this last part is just something I’ll type up and struggle with this week. The brilliant part is that now that the holidays are upon us I have more free time at work and will be filling up that new thumb drive with documents and sneak in work on my paper whilst at my desk (insert evil slacker laugh here).
And, finally, I have to turn in a reflective essay about how I feel about my education. The professor reads, makes comments and I squirrel it away to refer to it later when my time finally comes to graduate. I did spend the better part of my morning churning that paper out. It was much harder to write this one since I didn’t have a bunch of angst and general pissedoffness going on like I did last semester.
