El Fin

The end of JSM? At least the way that I know it? I love Just Smiles Ministries, and I am truely sorry to see it go. I've met some wonderful people through that forum, who have helped me through some tough times these past few years. The thing that really sucks about the situation is that it's ending on the 31st; however, I'm headed home on Thursday, and since the connection at my house leaves much to be desired, I probably won't be able to visit that site much between going home, and it's end. On that sbject, I also probably won't be posting much, if at all between Dec. 14 and Jan. 10.

Anyhow, today is going to be long day. I'm locking myself in my room, and not leaving until I've got all of my Global Christianity notebook finished. I really wish that professor gave us tests. I'm good with tests, excellant in fact. Notebooks are another story, I hate journaling, especially since my way of expressing myself doesn't seem to suit him. The problem is that I refuse to pass myself off as being something that I am not. I am not a fake, what you see is what you get. As I've said before, it's better to be hated for who you are, than to be loved for who you're not. This notebook is, of course, due tomorrow morning. Tuesday I've got my Cognition Final, which is nothing to stress over, I'm choosing to take it pass/fail, so it has no impact on my grade. I'm quite pleased with that arrangement, though I do need to talk to that professor to suggest that he start including more assignments in his curriculum. Your grade in that class is made up mostly of three really large tests. I think students would do better if more small assignments were included. Wednesday I've got my Bio Final. This one I'm a little stressed over. I need at least a 90% to insure that I definately get an A on the course. Thursday I've two presentations, one for Bible and one for Social Research, nothing to panic about there.

So here I am, supposed to be working on that blasted notebook and what am I doing? Posting on my blog, which I really don't have to do. That whole last paragraph is just going over info I've got posted over in my side bar --> Meanwhile I've got on some nice loud Christmas music that I'm totally rocking out to and getting into the Christmas spirit. "The First Noel" just ended. That song brings back so many memories from elementary school. People used to sing it to me, mocking my gorgeous middle name. I hated it back then, but oh how I love it now. Now "Do you Hear what I Hear" is on, I love that one too. Of course, my favorite Christmas song is "Baby it's Cold Outside" which is, of course, not on this CD. "Sleigh Ride" is really good too. Yup that's right, I'm wasting precious time, sitting here critiquing Christmas music. Ok... time to get to work... I am going to have all the vocab for the notebook and the summary for the first 5 chapters of the book we have to read done by 5. The rest then, shouldn't be to hard to finish before 8. I'm sure I'll be posting again today... I'm such a good procrastinator.
