Procrastination.....

I'm taking a momentary break between essay #1 that is due tomorrow (which I just wrote and submitted), and essay #2 (that is also due tomorrow).  I have 5 more quizzes to take by Saturday (I have not read any of the chapters yet...not that I ever do) and a lab report due Friday.  AND...this is not even finals week!!!!  

This is the first time in my school career that I can ever remember hoping for "just a B"....I would be SOOOOO happy to get a B or better in all 5 of my classes.  I don't know if it's that I'm just "settling", or if it's that I've realized that A's are not all they've cracked up to be...probably a combination of both.

I just heard the garage...Ben's home...I'd better post this and pretend to be working and NOT procrastinating :)

A's are awesome when you don't have kids, or a husband, or a job, or anything else to focus on but school. Seeing as you have all of those things, and you are taking 5 classes, B's would be a blessing:) You are in my prayers friend... you can do it! It is soooo close to being over!

Yes you better stay on task for your slave driving, overbearing, controlling husband.

i hear ya sister about the grades. i am there as well only i am like if i just pass, all i care about it if i pass. this semester has been so hard for me. not the classes or the material just staying focused and really getting the job done.
i will be so glad when it's all done and then next semester here we come.
i will be calling you soon. my cell phone had a bit of an issue but should be all good by tomorrow.
hang in there.
oh yes and i am procrastinating as well. it feels good.

oh yeah one more thing i forgot to tell you do you know what happened to me, 2 of my faked observations i forgot to turn into to turnitin.com and so miss crystal swank didn't give me credit for them. lovely don't you think. argghh!! i would have been so mad if they weren't faked observations.

miss jessica said...

I've never heard of turnitin.com. Does she not use the drop box inside of Angel? Or is it not an online class...either way, that's is weird. Oh, and yes, it's a good thing you didn't actually take the time to really do the observations :)

No(dot dot)el said...

no she uses the drop box inside angel but then required that only some assignments be turned into this website that tracks whether you have plagiarism going on. LAME. i was so irritated.

you are pretty amazing. that's alot of work you got goin on, plus everything else on top of that. at least you're good at BSing. i am sure you will get awesome grades when all this is over. here's a saying i just made up. A's are awesome but B's are better. i know, it's kind of dumb :) but anyway, i digress.

miss jessica said...

Jami- that's almost as good as "zero the hero, first the worst..."

C's are the coolest.

as soon as you can reply to "you have a d" with "you mean i'm passing", then you qualify to be one of my students.

noel - crystal swank is her real name or did she accidently put her stripper psuedonym on her syllabus? awesome!

miss jessica said...

diga- Technically, at lease in my case, a D would not be passing...so you probably won't ever hear that one from me...but it's pretty funny that your students say that :) D is for dumb...

"D" equalled "diploma" in my college days.
