So, at this point, I've mostly finished the long papers I need to write. I need to start on the short papers this weekend. Within about two weeks, I should have absolutely everything done. In three, we'll be in leaving to spend a week in LA with someone truly wonderful.
I'm looking forward to the summer as well right now. I'll get to start working...

I desperately need to finish my paper for Ancient Art History. It's devastating.
chaostasis:
Yes, definitely. I wish that we could just say everything we wanted and never take any of it back.
It's an ancient art history paper. i'm excited about it... on women and cave paintings. I just feel like my arguement isn't strong enough. I'm sure it reads better than I think it does though, that's usually the case.
I'm off to see grindhouse! yay!

Today, I made a time sacrifice to Greyface and did my taxes (gasp). For the record, I rarely do my taxes because I've never mad enough to be required to file. Before you tell me that I should file so that I can get a refund, for the last several years, I've worked for public universities, making me a state employee who didn't have any...

ahh taxes. i'm excited to get my refund. i hope it's a worthwhile amount.
flux:
It makes my skin crawl too.
Anyway, I'll be continuing on with Spanish language literature; my speciality is modern Latin American fantastic fiction. It's delish.

I came back from my Hobbes class today, not feeling too hot. I relaxed a bit and chatted with Tara, then sat down to work on the Hobbes paper I started over the weekend. Just to review, the best part about this paper will be finishing it. So far, it's the last thing I have to do, but it's also the thing I want to...

Finishing papers feels great, doesn't it?
Re: I'm so excited about getting out of this place.
I need a change of surroundings, not just people.
And i always try to friend people who i could possibly have good conversations with.
Intelligent anarchists seem few and far between sometimes.

Re: Yes, I'm excited about grad school for that reason. Though, I'm going into African History so I doubt there's as much room for discussion of anarchy outside of factual occurances.
As reported by NyteSpryte, we saw Grindhouse last night. I thought it was entirely awesome. The fake promos and film artifacts did a great job of creating an atmosphere. The missing reels were especially funny because, as some of you may recall from an older journal entry, when we saw Poltergeist at the Prytania, they had the reels in the wrong order. Being at...

It occurred to me just now that one reason I like Linux so much is that my first computer was a 286 DOS machine. It had Windows 3.1 on it, but it booted to the command line by default. My uncle showed me some important commands, and left me with it. I figured out the "startwindows" command, but I stayed on the command line most...

We're at Z'otz. Tara's been drawing and I've been writing a short paper, one I was going to write in two days, but now that time is free to get started on at least one of the papers I need to write before the end of the semester. Bleh.
I am in the mood to get all of my work done as soon as possible,...

Had lunch with another job candidate yesterday. He was a lot nicer than the last guy, so I hope they hire him.
Got home, did some work, then more of the same today. I ended up deciding to call it quits a while back and have been messing around with my computer. I found out that Second Life has a linux client in alpha. I...

The beta for Ubuntu 7.04 'Feisty Fawn' went live yesterday, so I did a force upgrade to test out the upgrade process and see how feisty this fawn really was.
My answer: damn feisty
First things first, when the computer reboots, I get dumped to a command line because the kernel update broke the nvidia-glx driver. Now, I can handle the command line. I mess...

That made my head spin.

Clearly, you need more candy, sugary cereal & cartoons in your life 
I finished the other paper I needed to finish before the end of spring break. My guess is that no one else who has to do these papers has even started on them. Sometime after UBC, I became less of a slacker and more of an overachiever. However, my method of getting work done is just to start early and spread the work out. I...

I really, REALLY need to learn this lesson from you about schoolwork when I go back... it's funny though because I'm the exact opposite at work, work... always getting more done and ahead of schedule... hmmmmm.....
And yes, you're exactly right about the venting thing. We were just on completely different pages for the night. I praise Goddess for letting me get back on SG so *I* could vent... she's on my MySpace list, so that wouldn't have worked! (the girl, not the Goddess... although that would be kick ass...)
