tortoisegirlHey Livejournal land. Long time no update.
Only three weeks of school left! I'm really looking forward to the break, but I know there's so much to do between now and then that I can't enjoy the thought of it yet.
I did something really stupid in my Modern Novel class. There was a paper due a few weeks ago and I kind of freaked out and didn't turn it in at all. It was worth 15% of my grade. I need at least a C- in the class to get the credits and I don't know if I make that now. There's still two more papers due so if I do really well on them...maybe. But now I feel incredibly stupid and I'm even more stressed about keeping my grade up.
I'm sorry I never have anything to talk about expect school. My life is boring. I could talk about politics or something but I'm not even interesting enough to have opinions on things.
On yeah, I was thinking about going to Obama's inauguration on January 20th and I emailed Joe Sestak about getting a ticket. I'm on the waiting list for tickets, but I looked into the logistics of getting there and it might not happen. There's only a few Amtrak trains going to DC the morning of the 20th that have seats open and every train on the way back that night is full. I could go a day early and stay at a hotel, but most hotels are totally booked too. And really expensive. Most of the places I looked into have a "no refunds and no cancellation" policy, and I can't risk the money when I don't know if I even have a ticket yet. My last hope is an aunt and uncle that live just outside of DC. My aunt will be 9 months pregnant at the time so they probably won't want a house guest, but maybe I can stay for one day.
Now I have to study Japanese. I have an oral test tomorrow- I have to speak Japanese to my teacher for 10 full minutes. I'm terrified.
