life is good

could things be worse right now? obviously they could, because i asked that question last week and 2 days ago and so on and still haven’t learned my lesson. it’s like an invitation for things to go further downhill.

and what am i doing this summer? who knows. still. DC is a faint hope and Peru is an expensive dream. A dream that i would happily give up to provide free labor in the US. but not just anywhere, and that’s my dilemma.

school. school sucks for me right now. 4 more days of hellish stress though until a break - oh wait no, no break. a fast-paced summer school packed into 1 month where i learn about the tribulations of being an African American man. why? because while i’ve completed 2 majors and a whole bunch of other classes, i still haven’t fulfilled my western history requirement. i took “US history since 1865″, but that doesn’t qualify. duh. so i will learn about being an African male, I will take an art history class, i will even learn astronomy.

but before all that happens i will take 3 more finals within 24 hours. each of which counts for 40-60% of my grade. i have 1.5 more days to study, making it 2.5 total.

and after the last 2 weeks and my other courses and finals, i would trade some pretty valuable things right now for a nap. a 24-hour nap. and relaxation. but since that’s not an option and since the library’s kicking me out and shutting the lights off in 23 minutes, maybe i’ll take this opportunity to go learn something.
