Omg. This week sucks!
My list of things to do has grown. Friday now=German and Piano finals.
So, I did get some accomplishments done by finishing my first edit on pages 18-30 of my first draft of my thesis, which should get me to 20-32 of my second draft. Over 50% of the way through draft two, which I guess is good. It's better than I had anticipated, considering I was planning on doing pages 20-40 today, so I'll go as far as I can.
Aside from the devil that is thesis, I still have my Greek final on Monday. Although I really only need like a 10% on the damn thing, I really would like to do well on it. Then, at some point, I have to edit my Avicenna paper for HoM. I frankly don't know why I did it. On the writing portfolio section of the class, thanks to my one drop, I now easily have an A on that, and this paper gets taken out of the writing portfolio grade. Stupid me.
Those are the devils of the first half of my week. By Tuesday, I'm down to 8 hours that I have to care about at all.
German=ick too. I have a stupid interview to do that's like 20 questions long and then this massively huge test that I can't drop unfortuantely. Basically though I have like a 98% in the class, and that includes several homework assignments that she thinks I didn't do. Whatever. I'm pretty sure it's one of those do it and get an A things.
Piano is going to be kind of hard I think. We get to pick the pieces that we play for her, and I really have "This Land is Your Land" nailed down, so I'll definitely be playing that one. Then I have a choice between "Deck the Halls" and the "Hallelujah Chorus", both of which I've got down pretty well. Finally is one out of like 5 pieces, only two of which I've actually played, thanks to missing part of the course in Munich.
In all, it looks like I haven't made too huge of a mistake going to Germany, but this week is going to be REALLY stressful. The week after is breezy piece of cake stuff, which is just doing my HoM final.
Money situation looks quite grim, I must say. I currently have like $200 in savings, $40 in checking, and $400 in debt. Something doesn't add up here.
Fortunately, I have over $4000 in bonds, about one third of which will be used in Ireland.
I was looking on US NEWS report, and U of IA has an amazing history program too. You have to pick two specialties, and I think I would go with early medieval European and African. By the way, I am now like 75-25 in going for history. I'm thinking that my science master's will be in forensic science, so if I have to, I can get a job in CSI crap, but I can also really use that to analyze bog bodies and such too. I dunno. It's too much.
Whatver. I MUST do homework now.
