Day 265: Productivity

I don't think I've ever been as productive in one weekend as I was this weekend. I slept in on Saturday, right through most of the homecoming football game. Then I worked on my massive amounts of work for the week. Here's the lowdown. (Where'd that phrase come from?) I have an Archaeology test and a Statistics test on Thursday. I had to catch up on Stat lectures, fill out an 80 question study guide for Archaeology, and study for both of these classes. For Sustainability, I had to read 5 chapters of Ishmael (which is very good) AND work on our term paper project. My group and I are creating a Wikipedia page for the class. Don't worry, I'll link to it when it's finished. The project isn't due for another two weeks, so I thought that the group meeting we were having would be kind of pointless this weekend. Instead I found out that we had the rough draft of the page due online at noon on Monday. Um... WHAT!?!?!? Needless to say, that's all I did on Sunday. It takes a ton of work to make a Wikipedia page. I live chatted with an administrator so he could teach me what I needed to know. But regardless, we couldn't put the page up "live" until next week anyways thanks to Wikipedia rules. I have to build my "street cred" a little so I am worthy of Wikipedia's name. :) And my TA approved the draft and said it looked great. So that was a huge relief.

Monday I went to the advising office to change my major. I had to wait almost two hours, but I finally am a Sustainability Studies major! YAYY! Unfortunately, to be 'on track', I have to take 3 core classes next semester. Too bad they only are offering two... (one of which I just found out about today). I have an appointment to meet with the Sustainability adviser, who is also my teacher for the class who wrote the book that we have to read that I don't particularly enjoy. Hopefully he is knowledgeable in the area of advising. As I get to register for classes on Thursday, it is imperative that I figure out which classes I'm taking ASAP. I was aiming for no class Fridays, which I may have mentioned. Unfortunately, I think that will be impossible. The two classes I have to take are MWF2 and MWF5 (periods). Second period is 8:30AM. Goody goody. I liked sleeping in so much this semester. So now I'm trying to rework my schedule so I have Tues/Thurs off (except of course for my Fruit class where I get to eat free fruit (and cookies)). Hopefully it all works out. I'll let you know later.

Tonight was community group, which was amazing. We are doing a bible study on the women of the bible. Tonight we discussed Abigail (1 Samuel 25) and the Proverbs 31 woman. So awesome. Check it out. Last week was Hannah (1 Samuel 1) READ THEM. Such awesome Godly women.

Tonight was also archaeology night. YAY....

Tomorrow will be statistics and then Thursday will be tests and Friday will be NO SCHOOL!!!!

Ready for the Christmas break countdown???

10 M/W/F classes (not including the Wed before Thanksgiving, because who goes to class then anyway?)
7 T/R classes (if I decide to go to class Tuesday before Thanksgiving, which is unlikely)
= 17 school days (+/- 1) until finals!!!! YAYYYY!!!!!

I like when you can count the days until break on your fingers and toes.
Darn. I was just looking at my schedule thinking that I could essentially go home before the Monday of Thanksgiving week since I only have one class Monday and my Tues/Wed classes are excused/canceled. But I see a slight snaf-oo in my plan. I have a test Monday. :( Maybe he'll change it!!! We are behind in that class... Hopefully.

Well enough ranting for the night. Sorry I don't write as often anymore, but isn't it more exciting to get a great long blog one night than 3 teensy weensy blogs every night? It's like getting to eat an entire cookie rather than just a bite at a time. Mmm Cookies...
