My cog psych presentation actually went all right, and my directed research paper got moved back a day which makes me feel just the slightest bit more relaxed. Not enough, though. Tomorrow's my last day of classes (well, technically I have a class on Tuesday, but there's no way I'm going), so that's helping some. But I still have loads to do. This was another weekend of failure to get anything done. Well, I did spend like 3 hours Saturday studying for the cog psych final with one of my roommates and then 3 hours Sunday studying for it with a friend.
I think I'll be okay, though? I don't know. Everything's done for tomorrow. Tuesday my final Directed Research paper is due, so tonight I'm definitely going to revise the intro (which I've discussed with her and am halfway through revising, so it shouldn't be too big of a deal to finish) and the methods (which... I have maybe a footnote to add, but that should be it). I sent her the Results and Discussion on Friday night, so I'm hoping I'll hear back from her soon, but I think it's unlikely it'll be by tonight, so I really don't have to worry about that. Wednesday is my German oral final, but it's a group presentation and my partner is super busy and we agreed to meet on Tuesday afternoon to work on it, so I don't need to do that now. Wednesday is also my cog psych method/results/discussion paper thing, but my professor is going to hand me back my draft with comments tomorrow so there's nothing to do for it now. Then I just have my Discrete Math take-home final due Sunday (lkjasdf I so don't want to do this. I think I'm just going to set 2 hours aside for it Tuesday morning and at the end of the 2 hours, I'll turn in whatever I have. If I get a 50 on this and the project, I'll have an 81 in the class. I need to not waste time getting super frustrated about it and trying to make it perfect. I need to half-ass it and turn something in so I can be done with this class for good finally.) and my Cognitive Psych and German finals on Friday and Saturday. And, I mean, I'll have nearly all of Tuesday, nearly all of Wednesday, and all of Thursday to study for those (plus Friday night for the German final), so I really should be fine. I'm definitely less stressed now than I was last spring. I'll get through it.
I got a replacement school ID on Friday and yesterday the landlord came by and found that my ID had been put... somewhere outside? I don't know. But yeah. So now I have two. I so knew that would end up happening. Oh well. Now I have a spare/extra, I guess. I just feel kind of stupid for spending $20 on a new one. Waste of money.
I gave my cog psych professor a draft of a paper on Friday and he said he wasn't sure he'd have time to look it over but he'd try, and today I got an e-mail back from him which was basically like "I looked over your paper, and wow, are you a good student!" And that's just making me feel really awesome right now. I mean, he said he has some comments to improve it, but that it reads like a professional paper, which is cool. And I know I did well in his class last year and I've done well on the one exam we had this semester, but it's great to know he thinks highly of me. :D
Ok, so I'm going to work on my Directed Research paper and maybe make some more flashcards for Cognitive Psych and finish my German hw which I just remembered I haven't finished yet and take a shower and then watch Dexter. Tonight's the finale! I'm so excited for it, except it'll suck when it's over because it'll be so long until season 5.
Only 6 days left this semester! In exactly one week I will be home! This week just needs to be over already.
