Pic Spam To Come Laterrr

I'm naughty.


Really, really naughty.


On that note, I'll let you know why (because it's not for the reasons you're thinking, you dirty little chickens).

I have a massive load of homework. I haven't done any of it.

To give you an idea I'll post the links for a majority of my English homework and give you an idea on the assignments I have to finish in the next day.

For English:
We have to read The Prologue, The Author to Her Book, To My Dear and Loving Husband, and Before the Birth of One of Her Children by Anne Bradstreet (I'd recommend googling them. They're all very good. I especially like The Prologue).

To follow all of those up we have to read everything from the following links:

http://classics.mit.edu/Plutarch/demosthe.html

AND we still have to read the sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God".

That's just English.

I still have the twenty-six pages to read for Theatre from the textbook and the lab work for Biology.

On top of THAT I have Fem. Theory which is all as follows (taken directly from the syllabus):

Treichler and Kramarae. “Feminism” from The Feminist Dictionary
Walker. “Womanist,”
Bunch. “Not by Degrees: Feminist Theory and Education,”
Lorde, “The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House,” (Link because I have the wrong edition of the book: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/pipermail/margins-to-centre/2006-March/000794.html)
hooks. “Theory as Liberatory Practice,”
Lexicon of the Debates, (section pages: 34-55)
hooks, Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center : “Preface to the 2nd edition”

*sigh* This is gonna be fun.

I have no idea how I was talked into going to the Lia-Sophia party at 6 but I was. So that's going to delay my homework for at least another hour and a half.

*facepalm* I'm so dead.

If you're wondering about the title of this post it's because I went on a little picture-happy spree today. I was bored and it's a nice day sooo I'll post those pictures later. haha.

Alright, I've got dinner to eat.

I'm House Trained, Honest

Alright.

I'm bored so you get to be subjected to my neurotic thought process.


First of all, I'm totally stressing. I have no idea how I'm going to work and attend four classes and a lab. I barely made it through the last two semesters. I just don't think I'm really prepared for this.

Second of all, on top of all that. I have to make up my mind by DECEMBER if I'm moving out of state next year. WTH. I've known for a while I was gonna move away but this is not helping my stress level. I seriously wouldn't even realistically have the money necessary for that unless I took out so many loans it's not even funny.

So I guess it's pretty much decided that unless a very wealthy relative kicks the bucket very very soon and leaves me everything (which is not happening, all my relatives are healthy as fucking horses) then I'm not moving out of state next year. *sigh* I really really want to move too.

One thing that I know for sure is that I'm changing colleges next year. My original plan was to go to University of Maine in Orono but that may have changed. The only real upside to Orono is that I would still be able to live at home.

On the other hand, I may be going to Brunswick to attend Bowdoin. That is actually my preference right now. I'm still close enough my parents can help out financially but I'll be far enough that I would need to stay in the dorms. Although, I have no idea what I'm going to do about my cat. I don't think I can go that long without her. Then again, she can't live somewhere that she can't go outside. It's all so messed up.

ALSO, it's a much better college than UMO. I have more chances of getting a decent job with a degree from Bowdoin, than I do from UMO.

Aside from all that crazy school related stuff, the plans for next summer are looking really good. I'm set to attend ComicCon in July (though the date I'm going to be flying out is a little fuzzy. Still not sure if I'll be staying to see family).

And I'm rooting for May, but my mom would prefer August, for my CROSS-COUNTRY ROAD TRIP. That is right, I have been approved to drive...across the country...by myself. It's going to be so amazing. Albeit, my car will probably overheat, I'll probably flatten at least two tires, and I think the AC is going but I don't care. I really wanna do this.

It'll definitely help in the whole 'deciding where I want to live when I move out of state' issue. I'll get to see a lot of places I only dreamed about going to, seeing as how the farthest west I've ever been has been Pennsylvania. Yeah, I've never even seen the Pacific Ocean.

Can it be next summer yet?
