Aug. 7th, 2003 10:41 amI think maybe, just maybe, this will be all right. Just don't tell my brain I said that, it'll start slacking again.
Of course, last November I was saying I could get a C in this class... and now... well... Maybe... but probably not. *curses*
I think comp will be ok too. I'm using the surveys as personal interviews because I don't have enough responses to be statistically valid (9 is not nearly the 15 I need).
As an interlude to my classes and head explostions, I have some comments on last night. First off, as you may have noticed, wednesdays are the visit Arella day for mom and me. So, despite the fact that I should have worked on my paper, I hung out with Arella for four hours. We watched a very cool movie based on LeGuin's "Lathe of Heaven"... mom said it wasn't as good as the original, but I liked it. I also got to play chess with Arella. It was fun because we're on about an even level, so we don't lose instantly the way I do against Brad or BJ.
When I finnaly left Turning Point at 9, it was raining. Thunder echoting gently as lightning arced across the sky like violet fire. For those fifteen minutes of driving back to the house, I was at peace. I can't remember feeling like that in ages, and it was beautiful.
I want to give thanks to those who've supported me this summer, especially the past few weeks. Everyone that told me to go to sleep, or do my work. Everyone that let me de-stress when I needed it. I owe you a lot, I just hope I managed to make it worth it.
Right. Now I go to drop those movies at videot, and pay my weekly $12 parking ticket to the damn CSU people. And pick up the real Kansai Application... and email Beeken-sensei. Damnit, why am I so good at procrastinating?
