my backup plan was moving into sophielab
Dec. 7th, 2009 11:49 amMy computer froze, and if you've ever seen a college student whose computer froze the first week of finals hyperventilating and crying in her dorm room...um, that was me, anyway. Fortunately the paper that's due today was already in my e-mail inbox, so I printed that and turned it in, then wandered around in a state of dull horror before finally making it to the library (all computers: full) and picking up a stack of books that looked promising re: my Arab-Israeli Conflict paper. I returned to find that my computer had magically repaired itself. (My roommate says that my computer just hates me and likes her, but whatever, GNOMES.)
I will start breathing normally again...sometime in the future.

snacky for the snowflakes! It is a pleasant sixty-some degrees here in New Orleans, so it goes without saying that there is...no actual snow here. (They hauled some in last week for Snow Day. Yes. We have a snow day wherein they haul in snow so that people can pretend that it is winter.) Don't worry, in just over a week I will be back in Washington, where I will have more than my fair share of snow.
Also, I desperately want to write Narnia. This is not new. But I must study! And debate whether it is wiser to write this paper or take the final. (I actually have the suspicion it might be better for me to take the final, but I already talked to the professor about the paper...I know I fail as a liberal arts major for this, but I actually generally prefer tests to papers. It's just -- it's the class where I never have any idea what's going on in it, so I'm dubious about how much I know will actually translate to a test. *waffles*)
Also, earlier today I watched the PC trailer for the ten millionth time and made slightly embarrassing noises at it. I admit nothing.
ETA: I am strongly inclining towards taking the final rather than writing a paper, if only because I think I'll actually freak out less, and it'll be easier to study rather than research. Especially since I have another final that morning; it'll be easier to study for both than research for a paper, because I can't study and research at the same time. Thoughts?
