Brotha Petray Says:

"Procrastination is a lot like masturbation. Feels good till you realize you're fucking yourself."


Well I'm doing my best right now to avoid studying, mainly because my head hasn't been able to get it straight that I DO in fact have another final tomorrow... it's confusing because originally I didn't have one scheduled for tomorrow, but stupid Prof. Lynch had to change his "unofficial office hours" so that my original plan of taking that philosophy final on Thursday after the 308 one is kinda out of the question. THUS a part of my brain says "you need to study for your final tomorrow NOW so you have time tomorrow to study for the 308 one on Thursday" but another part of the brain is still like "oh what the hell, you have all day tomorrow to study for 308 and the philosophy can come in... somewhere... i don't know where but you can squeeze it in."

The landscaping people came this morning and poured rocks over 99% of the backyard, and layed down like 15 stepping stones to form a path from my door to the back door of Cynthia/Gary's house. Finally, when it rains now it won't be a giant mudhole in the backyard, and Apollo can't run as fast on these rocks so I can catch him when I want to get him into the house and he tries to run away from me, thinking it's a game or something when I have to go to school and he's making me late.... he's sleeping like a baby right now in front of his new favorite piece of furniture in the house: the heat lamp.

2 days and 2 tests left...

4 Days and Counting

Well, I've made it through this quarter thus far, and I have to say that the worst is definetly behind me. All of the "Monday Madness" (4 hours of class, 6 hours of work - 11AM to 11PM on campus), "Torturous Tuesdays" (7 hours of EE lab, 2 hours of philosophy lecture - 8AM to 7 PM on campus), and "Worn-out Wednesdays" (3 hours of EE lab, 4 hours of class - 8AM to 5PM) are all over and I will never again have to put myself through such a demanding schedule again in my life... I've often found myself wanting to collapse after those 3 days, but nevertheless - I've made it through 10 weeks of that hell and this is the final stretch.

Not to mention that I've already managed through 3 out of the 7 finals I have to take... the 3 lab finals were taken during this last week of school - Deadweek. What are left are 4 finals:

CPE 229: Monday 10-1
EE 328: Tuesday 4-7
EE 308: Thursday 10-1
PHIL 320: Thursday 4-6

As I continue to waste time (procrastinating from studying right now), I can only dream of the rest and relaxation that is to come my way in the form of a 3 week break, in which will be filled with good food, chilling with friends (high school AND college buddies), and lots and lots of video/computer game playing.

I've realized that I'm a Facebook Addict... I need to check myself into a clinic or something.
