Well, Christmas is over I suppose, the decorations came down yesterday. I really racked up this year. I actually wasn’t expecting much beyond some books and DS games and giftcards, but actually I pooled my resources (due, in large part, to my grandfather) and my Vaio and got a MacBook Pro. I’ve spent the last [...]

Posted photos of my mountains. Also reposted all the other albums in the navbar over there to the left.
FINISH LINE!
I have crossed the finish line! Paper is done! I am leaving in a minute to go turn in a paper copy and run trip-errands and then I’m sleeping all day and going home tomorrow! HOMEHOMEHOME!
ack.
It’s 6 AM. I did it. 24 hrs straight awake without using interesting things to keep me awake. So that’s…6 hrs of sleep since Saturday morning when I work up. Lesse, that’s…6 hrs of sleep in 72 hrs. I’m crazy. Well, I’m almost done with the paper. Just a couple more things to add in. [...]
late night update
I’m feeling feisty. Reallllly feisty. I’m gonna kick this paper’s ass. As of 6 AM I will have been awake for 24 hrs. It’s 2 AM now. Oddly enough I think my body is adjusting to the 3-hrs-of-sleep-at-random-times schedule. I feel better now than I have all day really. My eyes are SOOOOO pissed at [...]
update too.
Vomiting Verbiage makes me loopy like woah! Yeah, after 8 hours and 4.5 pages, that’s what I come up with. I missed the second 4 PM deadline. I realized I would when I felt sick this morning. Then I sat down and reread an article I’d missed before, and was talking to a friend, and [...]
Prodigy? Or Prodigal’s Daughter?
I have to say I’ve become very smart over the past few days. I now know more about semiotics than 99.99% of the average population. Scary. I was also just thinking how odd it’s going to feel to walk into my parent’s house tomorrow night. Like, being welcomed into the warm arms of family after [...]
Operation “I’ll-die-before-I-take-this-paper-home-to-finish-it”: Day 6
I just slept from 3 AM to 6 AM. I’ve had a headache for the past 10 hours. I am very very tired. And tired of oatmeal. and granola bars. and Semiology. 10 hours to go before I can sleep. 10 beautifully short hours in which to type my 15 page paper.
almost coming to a close
I missed deadline one. I think I wrote that already. I knew I would though. I’m about half done with research for paper 2, but it’s much more organized than the last one so hopefully actually writing it up won’t be like pulling teeth. By this time tomorrow I’ll be cozy in my bed dreaming [...]
update
I spoke with Herr Professor last night, I feel much better. I don’t think I’m going to fail but I reallllly have to get this paper done before I leave for home. I’m just taking notes now, should be able to start writing by some time this evening. I haven’t heard word about my extension [...]
