schoolwork this time.
i just sat down with one of my handy-dandy notebooks and wrote out all of my assignments for the rest of the semester. i can't believe the semester is more than 1/3 of the way over now, and there's so much i need to do! i'm a bit behind on a couple of classes, one of them i'm way behind on because they didn't give me access to it on blackboard until the end of the 4th week, then i had to wait to get the book on cd from the professor. so yay, i get to play catch-up now...fun.
i'm taking a test today and doing an article analysis for one class, need to do a book critique and chapter quiz for another class, need to do a report on art & science in culture in another, do a research article review in yet another class, have to do four chapter summaries in a class in which i'm behind, and all of the catch-up stuff for the class i've just gotten all of the resources for. that's all that's due this week (or prior to this week). the first one listed has to be done today, everything else by friday. it will most likely be saturday or sunday for some of the stuff though. but if i can get it all caught up by the end of sunday, i'll be happy with that progress, then i'll be on top of it all and won't have anything late after that. seven classes...it's a LOT of work. i wish i could have my degree at the end of the semester to show for it all, but unfortunately i have one class left to take this summer. (hopefully i can start on it a week or two early and finish it a month or so early, we'll see.)
hopefully the "mail fairy" will come and bring my financial aid check today too. money is just killing us right now (or actually, lack of it)! if it doesn't come today, i'm going to scream! they were supposedly processing it on 2/3, and supposedly they have 10 days to get the checks out after the funds are released...they were a bit late in that one, don't you think? i'm not thrilled with their financial aid disbursement practices, they've been late every semester for me, and it seems like they get later and later each time. oh well, it will be over soon-ish, right?
i'm hoping to get all of this done so i can try to work on things that i need/want to do around here. i have a dresser half painted, but need to get pulls for it (need the money to come first). once it's painted, along with the bookcase, they'll both go in my room. then i need to paint the armoire for thad's nursery. once they're all out of the way, we can go pick up our treadmill that our friends are giving us for free! i so need to start working out, and once a treadmill is here, there will be no excuse. i can't wait! (hopefully all of this will happen by the end of the weekend, including jerry picking up the treadmill.)
heading back into the books now...
