Power Point @ MindSay 
Please allow me to rip my hair out of my head right about......now.
Words cannot even begin to describe the amount of stress surging through my body right now. I'm not even joking this past two days has been absolutely destructive to my general well being. I am sitting in the library right now typing a ten page midterm essay on three different topics...and I had to just pick the hardest ones, right?
1.) Why is Stephen Crane's "The Open Boat" an example of Literary Naturalism? What ironies in the story contribute to its themes and what kind of ethic does Crane offer in the aftermath of Darwin?
2.) "Stopping by Woods on A Snowy Evening" is one of Robert Frost's most famous poems. If Walt Whitman had composed the poem, how might he have ended it and why?
3.) Is Edna a vile woman who perpetrates a set of dangerous cultural attitudes in The Awakening or a heroine who shows America how the world of Victorian values is incompatible with a woman's desires for a happy and satisfying life?
Yes, I have decided to answer those 'short' questions for my midterm essay. I even thought those were going to be the most easy, but alas I was wrong. I am wracking my brain over this right now and it doesn't help that this godforsaken dungeon of a library has the heat on so damn high.
But this isn't the extent of my night. Oh no. I still have to prepare the rest of that presentation for the Canadian Literary Conference this thursday. And my partner is not exactly helping the way I would like her to. The problem I feel is that we are both Leaders and we all know what happens when you get two Leaders and Not enough followers. This is an Academic Conference not some highschool presentation. There are going to be Professors from different countries as well as Grad Students and Counselate Members. This is not just some leisure trip.
Or maybe I am putting too much effort into all of this....I don't know right now. I just feel incredibly stressed...
I need a beer....

Well I have finished my Power Point Presentation on the subject of Dianetics. Let me tell ya, it was quite a journey. I read the book Dianetics: The Mondern Science of Mental Health, so that I could decide whether or not this was a science or a pseudoscience.
My conclusion is that Dianetics has no scientific basis and is rather a Science of Non Sequiturs at best. Don't panic..that doesnt mean that it doesnt cut it as a philosophy or a religion. Just that its claims of scientific validity are absolutely bogus.
First there is a discussion of the reactive mind (you never really find out where this is or what it housed in specific or even vaguely for that matter). Then there is the business of the Clear who no longer lives according to the reactive mind and so is free of the.....uhg! Nevermind. I have no desired to get into this again, what a quagmire!
I have completed the outlines for the last three 10 page research papers I have to complete. Good thing too because I was really starting to get tired! I was able to finish all of the tax returns I had to do before the deadline -woo hoo! And now I have to get ready for the busy summer that I have planned for myself. Let's see there is GRE prep, Grad school scouting, freelance writing, travel....and the beat goes on.
I will be visiting with a friend this evening and I am so stoked because they generally let me talk about myself, and really get the junk out....I don't see them that often but you couldn't tell by the way we are with one another. I don't tell them enough that I really appreciate them listening to me without competing for the worse life award (LOL).
HEY YOU....
I mean I don't really bitch much to the folks I see often because well....there are a lot of reasons, too many to mention. Not that they are not good friends to me...they are. But with YOU I feel really comfortable saying whatever I feel without fear that I will taste my words a second time in contempt....I love you.....you know in the platonic sort of way......unlesssssssss, oh, UM, no? Oh okay then just in the platonic way, I was just kidding about that other stuff 
!
Oh well I have bored you all enough, how about some poetry...here goes.....
Death Be Not Proud
Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow,
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell;
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally,
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.--John Donne
Goddess Bless
... it's all over but the crying, fade to black I'm sick of trying...
Rundown!
Chemistry- reviewed
US History- reviewed
Poetry- peer evaluation of portfolio
Earth Science- reviewed
Fashion design- reviewed
Word and Power Point- I did my power point music video which had pictures from the movie Closer, "The Blowers Daughter"-Damien Rice. I fucked it up. I messed it up so bad. I saved my files wrong, and it was just embarassing. I felt so bad.
Internship- We evaluated the course. I wrote that it was a big disappointment.
After school I got my oil changed and window wipers replaced. Then I went to the store and picked up a few groceries. Came home, studied, cooked dinner, studied, took a bath and studied, then I studied some more. Omg. I hate finals.
