I haven’t had the time to post much lately because I’ve literally been working on school work the majority of the past week. I tried really hard to make sure I didn’t want until the last minute to do all of it, but that never seems to work; I’m the best procrastinator there is! Originally, I was going to take my second on campus math test on Thursday because I had the day off from work and the testing center is open until 8pm Monday through Thursday but I didn’t make it due to being tired and wanting to study a bit more, so I went Friday morning instead. I felt that I had done pretty well considering how many formulas I had to cram into my brain and remember off the top of my head, but of course when I got home and started looking at the formulas in the book I didn’t feel so great about my performance…I won’t know my grade until the end of this week.
I also had to do a quiz and essay (together they equal a test grade) for my history class that was due by Saturday evening. Go figure that the same day that I have stuff due like essays is the same day that I’m suppose to go get dinner at my grand parent’s house; I took my book with me in hopes of getting some of it done while I was there, but do you know how hard it is to study with eight people yapping away and a 3 year old running around screaming about green lions? Very hard, so I didn’t get anywhere – I spent the majority of the night writing my essay when I got home, I got the full 20 points for it. Yesterday, as soon as I woke up I started working on my economics work and took my test, I got a 96 and last night I wrote up my essay for philosophy and submitted it. I hate how things always seem to be due around the same time as something else, but I some how always manage to get everything done.
I can’t believe that the spring semester will be over with at the end of April and it’s only going to get more hectic from here as things start to wind down and assignments are due one after the other. I already have planned to take a week and a half off from work, starting around the 17th or 18th of April until the 27th or so. I have to be on campus three times during that last week for my last math test, then the final and my economics test. I also have a 10 page paper I have to write for history and need to spend a good bit of time in the library – that I plan on doing the next few times I’m off work so I can get started on it. And…I don’t give a crap if they get all butt hurt about me requesting time off for work, I need to have the time to study and with this semester basically determining if I get into MSU or not, I want to do the best that I can because so far I’ve been doing well in all my classes!

I hope you did alright on your test, it’s nerve racking waiting for that grade to come back. A 96 is a great grade, wtg on that.

If only you could make a living out of procrastination. I would probably be the CEO of it and be rolling in the money.
In a way I miss those hectic days of school and tests, I must be crazy huh? The main reason I think is I miss my peers.
Good luck on your classwork.
