Gah! Caffeine's Not Enough

I'm unmotivated right now. I need to re-read my Mexico essay that I have to turn in tomorrow, and cut about 5 lines out of it to get it to around 5 pages. It's actually not half bad, but I need to do some more work with it. I'll do another read through tonight after I finish posting this, and have all my citations as in-text. That way tomorrow, I'll do a read-through in the AM before work, all of my formatting during my lunch break, and I'll be ready to turn in for class. In my interim between work and class, I'll type up my questions for discussion.

Oddly, I did all of this way early. Last time, I didn't even have one edit done on Tuesday morning, and this time, I'll have two done. On top of that, when I did discussion last, I did all of my questions the day of. This time, they're GOOD. I may even type them tonight if I can foment some kind of motivation.

I have another essay to write for next week, a book review. I actually have two in the next two weeks, so I'm going to do everything I can to read ahead this week during my low time. Wednesday comes to mind. I think I've moved on enough where reading doesn't lead me to constantly think about it as I'd lack focus. I'm going, once I finish said reviews, to take a nice BIG break from Mexico, and focus on ancient for a while.

It looks like the big move is going to be around April 1....I think? I never really know unless I'm actually doing it. That's good in time, and I'll have the hecticness of Irish dance, Mexican history, and a lot of ancient out of the way. I may try to see about starting to move some things in without occupying, if he's okay with it, just so I'm not doing it all in one day. I dunno. I'll figure it out as things get closer to then.

Irish dance has been both good and excruciating. The instructors were peeved tonight about a lot of things, and decided to take it out on us, so my points, sevens, and hop-backs were criticized. On top of that, my legs are jelly. In good news---Ray's got the backline of Warriors down.

I'm really tired all of a sudden. I need to kick myself into gear before my body gives out and I collapse into exhaustion.

  1. I've already been following via google reader but now I'm an official "follower" too. (kinda makes me sound like a disciple, huh?)

    Lemme know if you need a body to help with moving when the time comes.
