So I was not nearly as productive today as I was hoping I might be. I was intending to finish my 10 page term paper for my Monday class (it’s due the 21st), because I’m going home this next weekend for Passover, but unfortunately, I flopped. I did get some research (minor) done, at least enough to realize that I needed to read something by Faulkner so I can at least B.S. a little smoother. I picked The Unvanquished because it actually has a lot to do with the subject I’m working on. I got that, and I also grabbed Essays, Speeches, and Public Letters by Faulkner, so I can get a little more grasp of his personal views on things outside of what he displays in his fiction. None the less, that means I’m going to have to REALLY scramble to get this paper done this week. Like, massive, uber scrambling. I’ve got to read the whole novel, figure out what angle I’m going to discuss this subject from, and then hammer it out sometime this week when I have no time. Should be fun. I’m hoping I don’t have to write it at home on Saturday, because that- that would not be fun. But I will if I have to.
Other than that, it’s been pretty uneventful. Did manage to get my laundry done, though, so that was at least a minor personal accomplishment. Have work and then class tomorrow until 8:30. Not looking forward to that at all.
Shoot. I need to write my weekly report for the Internship. Blast, I thought I had gotten everything generally done on time, but whatever. I guess I’ll turn in the hard-copy on Tuesday like I always do. At least I’ve been keeping up with my work log some. That’ll save me at least a little time. At work, I’ve got to start designing an author page for Susan.
But now! Time to read some Faulkner. G’night! ^_^
