Hello world. What's going on? I feel like I've been living for nothing but deadlines the past month or two. I've been getting things done at the last minute for the entire quarter and can't seem to step it up. Preparing for projects, labs, homework discussions, it's all a run-on sentence punctuated only by moments of shear panic right before the deadline. News comes via le BBC with bright colors and cheery accents, but little discussion. Things are going by so fast around here - I'm getting ready for Mexico (with Esperanza), Kathleen's working on going to Thailand in March (with Engineers Without Borders) and Rena's planning her trip to the moon (some might say "altar") in May. It's crazy! Here's what it feels like:
Activities Performed This Quarter in Order of Perceived Time Alloted
- studying/homeworking
- avoiding studying/homework while appearing to be studying/homeworking
- preparing to begin studying/homework
- thinking about food
- preparing food
- eating food
- sleeping
- having fun
Here's to only 4 lecture days left! May they pass slowly enough to allow coherent thought.
I'm doing #2 right now!
