trinsyMy Day Thus Far:
- get up
- catch up with roommates
- go on a walk
- take shower
- eat breakfast
- start laundry
- go to chapel
- throw laundry in dryer
- do homework
- fold laundry
- remake bed
- clean room
- go to class
- go to library
- go to lunch
Things I Still Must Accomplish Before Bed:
- homework
- grading
Just to point out, everything before 'go to class' happened before noon. Because I'm awesome like that. Despite this, why does that list make it look like I've had a totally productive day, but I still feel like I've accomplished nothing? To wit:
My Remaining Homework for Tomorrow:
- read 50 pages in The God of Small Things
- read essay on Shakespeare's Richard III
- write two page paper summarizing essay
- read "The Clerk's Tale" from The Canterbury Tales
- read six chapters of Jane Eyre
Also, for the grading, not only are there forty-eight people in that class, it's apparently that magical time of year again when the professor I grade for decides that I no longer need to a key to assist me. Or rather, for an eleven question quiz, the "key" he provided me with consists of a mini post-it note that reads "#10 = heartache". Oh, okay then. And the answers for 1-9 and 11 I will magically know on my own. See, the problem is that he never gave me keys last year, and I still had them graded within a week and none of his students ever complained about their quiz grades, so he thinks it's fine. I mean, I never gave him any reason to think it actually was a problem for me not to have keys, so he doesn't see a need to give them to me. And now I've set myself up as too awesome to be able to go ask for them. In other words, it doesn't actually pay to be awesome at your job.
Right. Doing that huge pile of homework now.
