My last paper today was bad, and that's putting it rather mildly. Who the hell has the time or brain capacity to remember specifics in an Arts course?! Needless to say, I did NOT memorize specific details, which has led to this uncomfortable position of knowing it would have been an easy exam if I had.
Whatevs I'm not gonna moan over it now, I will deal with the consequences of everything (frequent absences from Patke's class being one of the main issues I need to take responsibility for, that, and hardly doing my Pynchon readings and being a lousy sorry excuse of a student overall) come June. That being all said and done, I spent a happy hour this morning on the bus texting the friends I want to see now that I don't have to pretend to be a student anymore. My social life is in tatters (for this pathetic semester, why did I do that?!) and I'm hoping my friends remember who I am. Ha.
Am such a loser! Sitting in the lib now waiting for Bonitochico's 5pm launch and reading Fahrenheit 451 for tuition tomorrow (note to self: have to be a better tuition teacher now that I no longer have exams to steal my attention away!) I'm actually looking forward to the MOE stint when I come back Europe! :):) And, for the whole of this week and next week, I'll be devoting my time to reading tonnes of Children's Lit material in the hopes of narrowing my HT topic a bit - am gonna start working on the thesis before I leave for Europe! Hopefully, if I play my cards right, I'll have a lighter sem next sem, and can concentrate on getting the bunch of As I need for the 2 level 3K lit classes I'll be doing alongside my 15MC HT. I know the HT is my cup of tea, so I cannot take it too lightly. If, if, I do everything as planned, the following permutations for next semester's grades will take me up to the second upper I need:
1) An A for my thesis and two B+s for the level 3K mods
2) A B+ for my thesis and two As for the level 3Ks
3) A-s for all three.
That is assuming I get an A and A- for the lit mods this sem, and an A, A- and B+ for the new media mods this sem. OKAY enough speculation!! 3 minutes to 5pm, and then I'm off to meet Clem at Holland V for dinner! :) Will update this space for peeks of last Friday's Iron Man 2 outing when I get home tonight! :)
