What an up and down day --

8:00 Wake up late, must cram for Ornithology and Evolution quizzes and e-mail term paper to Evo TA. Internet doesn't work. Freak out, lose study time in trying to figure out why, wake up Beth and use her computer. Scrap up enough time to review Ornith notes once and scribble forgetful keywords down on sheet. No time for Evo quiz.

9:30 No evo quiz, secretly start to study Ornithology, except lecture is REALLY REALLY interesting.

11:00 Do good on Ornith quiz, learn about brood parasitism. Period starts.

1:00 Start studying for Physics in Population Ecology Lab. Give rough draft to teacher for review where he says I'm missing half the results and need to double the length of all the sections even though I've spent hours and hours and hours on it already.

2:00 Class over, but I need to work with Will on my thesis results and someone is using the computer with the zip drive. I continue to study Physics, but get nowhere because I'm starving and cramps have me doubled over on the stool.

3:00 Still waiting. Check e-mail and find out HawkWatch got my resume and wants an interview. Jump out of chair with excitement, double back over in pain.

4:00 Start to work with Will and he tells me how to magically overhaul my entire results section though I need the FINAL rough draft tomorrow. Nearly start to cry right then and there. I ask him how to do the statistics and he gets a brain fart that lasts an HOUR. We stare at the screen hoping for the answer to call to us. We give up since it's now 5 and neither of us has had any food all day.

5:00 Visibly shaking with cramps and lightheadedness. Grab fast food, midol, and go to the lab to mellow out. Arrive at lab to find out I needed to turn in my timesheet 1/2 hour ago. Run like crazy to turn it in.

6:00 Work on Physics for the test tomorrow. Just get confused. Check E-mail.

7:00 Go to Brushfire release and listen to people read their stories. Some suck, some rock. Get "Artist of the Year" out of no where.

8:00 Go to Angie's to try to pull up Physic's answers. Not working. Watch Friends.

9:30 Head back to campus since my internet isn't working and I can't get the Physics notes on her computer.

10:00 In the Seismo lab all alone after NOT finding Will's sources. Got a COMPLIMENT from my Evolution instrustor on the web board. Too bad that won't raise my hideous grade in there.

Now: About to start Physics for my test tomorrow. Still need to rehash my results and make a power point presentation. I thikn tonight's an all nighter. Adios!
