WAG - Catching a breath; albeit a short one...
Note: I probably could have gotten by with titling this post "Catching a Breath," but I just got done with my English 319 midterm and I'm in the "utilization of fancy and needlessly complex words with the intended purpose, but not limited intent thereof, of padding typical, basic sentences that otherwise would only take up a dismal fraction of a line, rather than formulate a whole paragraph to communicate the identical message" mindset.
Further note: You may want to take a break after muddling your way through that, but I promise to keep things simpler from here on out... or at least as simple as I ever get.
Anyway, the finishing of that last test signals the end of midterms for this semster.
- Pause for celebratory dancing... not that I do that kind of thing -
Three major tests in three days, plus a major story for creative writing. All done!
Of course I still have a major project due tomorrow (the midterm for that class was last week and we're already back to the grinding the stone), but it involves watching 2-hours of TV. It involves watching 1 hour of a program I hate, 1 hour of a program I love, and then write a two page analysis of the advertising and target audience of the programs. I know, are still stuck on the fact that the assignment is only "watching TV," but it's still going to take up time. No fastforwarding during commericals in this assignment.
I also have to call home tonight, make posters, do laundry, buy Halloween food, finalize Halloween plans (for church Hayride, "Rocky Horror Picture Show" viewing), compose and send some important emails (to both parents and the Ground floor of Cramer), and a small list of other things I need to get done separate from my lengthly list things I need to get done on Friday.
It's also Toga day for the trumpet section, so you know I have lots to worry about.
...
For those of you who haven't guessed, yes it's a round-a-bout way of indirectly asking for forgiveness if posting is sparse through Sunday. Sunday is wide open.
And God bless Iowa State for rescheduling it's match-up with Mizzou. It does mean I'll have to come back a day early for Thanksgiving, but it gives me one more open weekend in the midst of a busy schedule now.
Thank you Cyclones. I also apologize upfront for the late November thrashing you'll receive in November.
I also apologize to any northern Iowa relatives who read this site and still stand by those Two and Six Twisters in order to prevent a late October email thrashing.
Thank you.
