After the cohort visit in Pittsburgh I forget that I still have class and assignments that are due. I completely forgot about the copyright discussion board posting and I have been unable to access the internet for the past few days which really hasn't helped matters. I will turn my assignments in late because at least I've made the effort to do them and turn them in.

I've also noticed after reading the discussion board for 2600 that I screwed up on the second Thoreau assignment. I'll have to go back and make revisions as necessary. Only a paper and the portfolio website to finish!

Well the semester's almost over and just in time. I got a new kitten and I'm trying to get him acclimated to my place, my ferrets, my schedule, etc. It should be relatively interesting to see how this will all pan out during the next semester. I'm almost finished with my all of my assignments! Yay!

Almost there! I'm very excited to see one semester of class is almost under wraps. :) It's been pretty stressful at times, but if I can do one semester, I'm pretty sure I can conquer them all.

Okay, I had a good style sheet going and then I changed something and it didn't work. Blargh.

So the html assignments are really difficult for me. I've tried using the html designers that were posted in the syllabus. However, I'm having an easier time working them over in notepad. I hope that's okay!

Well after all the classes I got to come home and take a 2 and 1/2 hour nap. It was really just what I needed. I'll be finishing up my assignments for this week hopefully tomorrow.

Well this week has been tremendously interesting and frightfully busy! It's been nice meeting and chatting with everyone face to face, something I sort of miss about traditional classes. But oh my goodness! I feel overwhelmed by all the new information and everything that's coming due and the end of the term is right around the corner! Luckily a short break is coming up to collect thoughts and reconvene in the fall term with a fresh, new start. Hopefully during the break I'll be able to read something for pleasure, not that reading books like "Viral Spiral" isn't a wonderful treat... but it'll be nice to not have to worry so much about absorbing the content and instead just enjoying a story by a fictional author.

Or maybe I could more efficiently spend my time over the break reading for my classes in the fall. Whichever... lol.

Wow, that html gave me a headache. At least it's done. I think it turned out alright. If I get a chance I'll think I'll practice some more html on my blog. I have two books to read, some research to do, and the power point to finish. Gotta get back to work!
Well things are settling down and hopefully things will start to improve at work. Today is my last day off so I'm gonna tackle the Thoreau assignment. I'm hoping to finish my research for the book censorship topic as well.

And finally, I need to get reading Viral Sprial and Everything is Miscellaneous. They're not quite as interesting as the Meaning of Everything though. ;)

I'm feeling a lot better now. My issues with getting my work found and in order has finally been rectified and I'm extremely relived as I tend to panic a LOT. It's just been a horribly stressful week and that is one thing that I can take off the list.

Well, apparently Dr. Tomer has not received my assignments though I know I've sent them multiple times. I'm sure it will be fixed soon but it's sort of beginning to stress me out because I don't want him to think I submitted them late, or worse, not at all. I have been doing them, and doing them on time. Oh geez...

At any rate, I've been reading the story of the Oxford English dictionary and it is as interesting as I thought it would be which is a nice change of pace.

whew! Work has worn me down this week. Hopefully I'll finish the "Linked" book tonight and then get a good chunk of "The Meaning of Everything" done. Still no grades posted for 2600. :( I'm starting to panic a bit... (okay, a LOT)

That's really all I have to say right now.
