Okay, Here Goes

It is that time of year.

Finals week. Or, the week in which I write all the papers I should have started ages ago.

Or, the week in which my brain sputters out on me way too early.

Seriously, unless you are my parents, you seriously won't want to read this. You won't really care at all. Because basically it's like a whiny to-do list I'm writing to procrastinate.

Okay. You're reading this? You must really, really love me or really, really want to procrastinate too.

Today's my USSR environment class final. That class is seriously on notice forever. I don't even want to talk about it. It is so close to being finished.

I'll also finish News II today. Which feels incredibly anti-climactic, despite the craziness that went into getting the footage for it.

Then, by friday I will write:
- 6 more pages about the efforts toward a common asylum policy in the European Union (hint, it's not pretty. Lots of racism, lot's of bureaucracy, lots of nationalism. Oooohhh, my FAVORITE!)
-4 more pages on the elements of anarchism in Green Day's punk rock opera American Idiot. Yes, I came up with that topic myself, and no, my professor is not going to know who Green Day is.
- 3 more pages on elements of fascism in the Bush administration. This one is fun. Also depressing. Can you tell which class I procrastinated on? "Ideas and Ideologies"
-Aaaannnddd 2 more pages on the representation of socialist principles in public education. This is not so fun. Actually, it is extremely dull.

That's not bad. It's manageable. Or, it would be if I could concentrate. And think of everything I'll have produced by the end of this week! I calculated, and my final page count for final papers is 38. I'll also have finished one exam and put together one three minute video.

And on Friday, I'll be one of the happiest people on the planet. Because I WILL BE DONE!
