In case anyone's keeping track or, like, is seriously invested in my grades and stuff, my instructor did not deduct any points from last week's grade because of my, um, fervent defense of same-sex marriage. In fact, as my grades stand in my Soci class today, if I never did another bit of work between now and the end of the semester (Aug. 7), if I never even took the final, I'd still have a B in the class. That's kind of funny.
I have a PowerPoint final project that I want to finish this weekend for WS and I have my Zenzele essay nearly done. I've finished my ten-page thesis for World Lit, finished the 13-slide ppt that is supposed to accompany it, finished the bibliography but I still have to do the annotated bibliography (I hate having to annotate a bibliography... I mean, what's the point?), and I just (!) need to do a self-assesssment thing, put togther ten of my "best" pieces of discussion board writing from the semester, and then read and offer a critique of five of my classmates' thesis projects, oh and finish reading Paradise of the Blind and write pivotal things about it and then be tested on its content. That's it for World Lit and WS. For the Soci class I have to do some kind of magazine project by tomorow. I've been putting it off all week because the assignment annoys me. I'm supposed to write about a magazine I read, a magazine also read by my "peers."
I'm sure you all see the problem here.
I have no peers.
And the only magazine I read, the only subscription I get (it was a gift from the people I pet-sit for), is National Geographic.
I'm supposed to write about how women are presented in the magazine I read. If the presentation leads to our national issue with eating disorders.
I haven't even opened this month's National Geographic but someohow I doubt that it features bikini models. (Though you never know...)
Eh.
But I better go... Lots to do.
