Well, I just finished my Government test. I’m fairly pleased, I think I was as ready for it as possible, considering my… tendencies. The multiple guess was a piece of cake, as usual, and the short answer (11 fairly detailed questions, omit one) weren’t too bad. I know I lost a point or two on one – I couldn’t for the life of me remember a current case or topic that’s on the Supreme’s docket – but other than that I think I did all right. I couldn’t skip that particular question, because there was another question I liked less. ‘Sokay, I’m pretty sure I got the grade I needed on it. I’m pretty sure that I’ll get what I need on the final test too – although it’s comprehensive, it’s all multiple choice. Should not be a problem.

Whew.

Well, I hope “whew” anyway! <knocks wood> We’ll get our grades on the test next class session, which is Monday.

OK, now I get to worry about my American Lit test next Monday. :D

Interesting factoid: I’m currently typing this entry on my Palm, with my Palm keyboard. I absolutely love this little keyboard! I’m really sad that the Palm devices seem to be fading. I’ve got some irreplaceable apps on this thing that I can’t live without!

==========

Speaking of irreplaceable: I need to work on a post of “must-have” apps and things for OSX. Maybe I’ll add palm apps to that as well.

==========

OK, it looks like there are some computers free now, so I’ll add more / finish this later.

How can you not dance around and sing to Dr. Horrible?? Whups, almost class time!

Grf.

Well, tomorrow’s my third government exam. I should do well, but I’m still a bit… worried isn’t exactly the word. Maybe anxious is closer. Either way, I must do really well on it, or else.

Blah.

Still kicking myself.

School has been going well for me. I really enjoy it, and I look forward to taking more classes. Well, except maybe for the Speech requirement. So far I’ve got a 4.0, but alas, that will change this term. The best grade I can hope for in my U.S. Government (yeah, go figure) class is a B.

I was incredibly stupid, and didn’t start my paper until it was much too late, so it was nowhere near complete when it had to be handed in.

Yeah. Believe me, I’m kicking myself.

Oh well. Onward, and all that.

Not sure what I’m taking next term. I’m running out of classes that I can take at the campus closest to me, and I’m not sure how the timing will work out for getting to the other campuses. One series of classes I’d like to take is only at a campus in North Austin.

I wonder, if I manage to get my associates and actually transfer to UT, will they make me put a longhorn sticker on my car?

Hm. I need a school icon.

Um.

So. Yeah.

It’s late, I’m crashing, and I’ve got nothing whatsoever to say.

Didn’t sleep well last night, so I slept in pretty late today. That, of course, set the tone for today, which means I accomplished absolutely nothing.

Oh well, that has its advantages as well.

Still got nothing.

Laundry tomorrow, and I’ve got to study for a government test that’s coming up.

So.

Well, that was boring. But it wasn’t a meme, at least!

Zzzzzzzzzz.


Writer's Block: Short Days

Winter comforts: Sitting on the couch, wrapped up in a blanket, sipping hot chocolate. Warmfuzzysocks. Hot soup and crackers.

Austin doesn’t really get that cold, and winters are never winter although we do get “snow” every few years:

Sometimes I miss Vancouver, Washington. I used to like the rain, and the green is so beautiful. It didn’t snow often there, either…

But snow was close, if you needed it:

Sometimes I miss seasons.
