I leave in *3* days.

---

Yup! I'm going to hand my last one in in a few minutes.

---

My shirt has an unusually high number of buttons.

---

Thank-you cards are awkward.

Campus is EMPTY.

---

"Campus is EMPTY." Ours too. Most of my floor left already, but since my mom can't come to help me move out until later tonight (like 1am), I'm stuck here until tomorrow morning

---

I *should* be doing my math homework, but it's not due until Friday. Ehhh.

ETA: And by Friday, I mean Monday.

I'm just icing my sore knee and watching the Yankee game.

Well, I'm here. Studying. My IB French is tomorrow morning. =/

There's a speaking part that you have to do earlier in the year. You have to do 3-4 minute presentation about something dealing with Spanish culture. Spanish for you at least.

Then on the actual test there are a few passages that you have to read and answer some questions. They're usually multiple choice and fill in the blank type questions.

And then there are 2 essays. The first one you read something, and then write 100 words answering one of the questions asked. Then the second one they give you 4 choices of things to write about, like a letter or something. And that has to be 250 words.

You know how you do the more tolerable homework first and then are left with that awful feeling of having to do six assignments you really don't have any desire to do?

Yeah, I have that feeling right about now.

SIX?

*hug*

That's a very unkind thing to do to a senior.

My school related banality:

If it would make you feel any better, I have a project that will take a threadbare minimum of ten days to grow and we have eighteen work days left. And then I have to write it up and get ready to present it.

They were supposed to have the chemical solutions ready on Wednesday so I could get my radishes set up and we could have time to watch them grow. Turns out, I forgot to give them some important piece of paper so they couldn't do it and our project was delayed. Ok, fine. That stuff happens.

So I gave the paper to them and I walk early this morning, expecting yet again to have the solutions waiting for me. No dice. I found my group member later and asked why he'd neglected his simple assignment for the second day in a row and his response was: "I didn't feel like it."

He didn't FEEL LIKE IT?

We have practically no time at all. I might not even FINISH my part of the project at this rate because we've put it off so long. We are down to the wire and I'm being delayed because he doesn't FEEL LIKE IT?

Worst of all, I didn't even hear about this until AFTER I'd dragged my sorry ass out of bed and gotten to school forty-five minutes early two days in a row. They have my email address. They could have TOLD me this, but no. That would be too considerate of my time.

I wanted to kill him. And this isn't even the kind of thing I could go ahead and do myself; it's a science project and I don't even know HOW to make these damned solutions. Without their cooperation, I'm sunk. If they didn't make them today..... I don't know what will happen.

Yes, six. Not all of them are due tomorrow, but two of them are research papers.

I'm really sorry, nia. You know how much I loathe group work, and it's especially unfair when your group members don't want to work as hard as you do. My drama class earlier this year was group work hell. I was constantly pegged as the "bad guy" for actually making people work.

ETA: I don't know why either, Elphie. We have a math test on the last day of school. How effed-up is that?!
