Today sees the introduction of a new feature to this blog (possibly the only feature on this blog) entitled Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down. It's pretty self-explanatory.
THUMBS UP: I finished my Jewish studies paper and my proposal for the final paper.
THUMBS DOWN: I have a history paper due Monday at 10 am. I haven't really started it...ish.
THUMBS UP: But Monday at 10:01 will be the most glorious moment of my life, after which I only have my final Jewish studies paper as far as intense assignments go. And that'll be much easier than my history paper.
THUMBS DOWN: There are approximately 3 days, 17 hours and 51 minutes between me and the sweet glory of 10:01 on Monday.
THUMBS UP: Some people's bodies respond to stress by losing weight.
THUMBS DOWN: My body's response to stress is, "OMG!!! Eat your feelings!!! Look! An OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE!!!"
THUMBS UP: It was a really good cookie. Mrs. Fields...mmmm.
THUMBS DOWN: The sheer amount of work I have to do precludes my going to the gym to possibly feel less guilty about eating said cookie. Plus, there that whole "lacking endorphins when I most need them" thing.
THUMBS UP: My prof gave me a lot of good tips on paper-writing when I went to his office hours today.
THUMBS DOWN: It was totally intimidating hearing about all this stuff I didn't know to begin with.
THUMBS UP: Amrita did a project on the same topic in high school and she has offered to be my sounding board/editor of sorts.
THUMBS DOWN: WHY AM I SUCH A PROCRASTINATOR?!
To sum up: kiddies, no matter how quickly you usually work and how much you usually procrastinate, DON'T anymore. Or, if you must procrastinate, comment and let me know that you have been similarly screwed over by a class assignment (read: yourself).

I feel you. I'm reliving high school again, except there's only one chance, pass it in or fail. Expository Writing and American culture are pointless classes as expressed by upperclassmen and all first-year students at my school. It's currently killing my GPA. Well, I still somewhat have above a B average, but I want to steer clear of a 2.7 GPA as each year gets more challenging. Organic Chemistry, here I come next year!
Renee, I wish I could blog like you.
