Fighting the Current

what a list

Very frustrated. A million things to do. Homework to finish (including an unbelievably long Latin take-home suppliment for a test), random things to do so I'll have things written under to my name in the yearbook next year, a long survey to do for Guidance (asking for an extension Monday, I know people always hand things in late, but I don't really want hell from them), various projects due during the week, music to learn by Friday (ideally, by Wednesday), various things to get ready for the trip Friday, a MAJOR history project due next Monday (on top of extra credit for that class), the AP US test this Friday, Senior portraits next week (no idea when, but it's such a scary concept; I agree with Pshaw, I'm not ready yet), lots of waiting, tons of research, the usual tests and homework, a paper or two thrown in, and probably so much else I'm forgetting.

Slept in til 12:30 today. I needed that desperately.

I've found that I can do more work if I have absolutely no contact with friends all day. If I manage to stay off the phone for most of the day and then get a call, after I have hung up, I yearn for more contact and often I'll give in. If I come home from school and go online, I find myself wanting to stay online aimlessly to avoid work. So my best bet is avoiding contact all together when I need to get work done.

I have been physically injured by Latin. A deep papercut on my thumb.

Finally, a submission to my site! Yay! Granted, it'll take me a month to even think about getting it done.

Been snappy today.

I was just about to write a line here. Then it went from there and I now have eight lines of a poem. It makes little sense, is very poor quality, but I haven't written a damn thing in a while, so it's wonderful.

Latin to finish tonight, we'll see what else I get to.
