So it's that time of the semester...basically crunch time. And boy am I stressed. My English professor's very unorganised, like every other English professor I've had. She keeps changing dates and messing up her own syllabus. It says that we need to bring in the three picture books tomorrow and she wanted us to have them in last class...of course since the syllabus says one thing, we followed that...so she got annoyed and wanted us to read the picture books and answer the questions for homework. Normally, I'm fine with that, but she also wanted us to read this essay she handed out and answer those questions on top of a final draft of an essay. Crazy much? Well, she cut back...a little, we still needed to do our essay, read the other essay and answer those questions. Crazy bitch. Next week she wants us to have most of our independent reading assignment essays done. She asks a lot...obviously. Monday, my five page chemistry paper on Forensic Science is due...Wednesday's a test...then we may have another test on the 21 or 23. Also, three more lab sessions (we're finishing up the aspirin one Monday and one of the other ones is the soap lab...). And a Math test, probably on the 21st. And then goodbye Fall 2009. I'll have a month to relax and day dream until classes start again. Next semester I'm taking three classes: Western Civ (with my favourite professor!!), General Chemistry (with the same professor as I have now) and Mythology and Folklore. And if my English professor this semester passes me with a C (I rather a C+ or a B), I graduate in the spring! Yay me! Current Mood:  stressed

So I went to the Star Wars concert last night and... It was hosted by a droid named C-3P0...ok Anthony Daniels, which was cool. It was actually a great concert, with clips from the movies being shown and a live orchestra. There was some memorabilia, not much, but a few props and costumes, sadly no lightsabers. And I didn't realise that we could bring cameras...so I didn't and didn't really get any pictures. Although, I enjoyed myself in my fairly good seats (they decided to close off half of the Coliseum and add extra seating on the floor that uber fans probably paid over $100 for). The best thing about these seats were, we were the only ones in that section really. It meant that we could stretch out and really enjoy it. Also, I went into New York City yesterday and went to the Strand bookstore...which was amazing! Books upon books upon books!! I bought ten books, two books on pirates, two on Tutankhamen, The Sweet Trade, Men of the Otherworld, two random cheap books and John Winchester's Journal...oh and a gift for my dad. I need to go back and raid the Egyptian history section again. Last week Antonio, my Betta, got sick...we tried figuring out what it was and how to treat him, but nothing worked...matters only became worse when Jeremy started laying around his tank at the bottom and not swimming around much. I first tried a Betta medication and then decided that I needed to get him into another tank that was cycled for a bit, so I put him with the Danios and then went out and bought a stress coat. Jeremy recovered, but Antonio died...I got a new Betta a black, red and white boy, who I named Nicholas or Nick. And lately Clay has gotten an attitude and flairs at everything for no good reason...the bottle of stress coat for one that is near his tank...and I've had him for almost a month and he's just strated this behaviour...ah well.
