This inevitably happens to me. It'll be a weekend at school I would like to enjoy but can't because I have a tremendous amount of work, and I'll make myself lots and lots of lists about everything I need to complete and how long it should take and what I'm going to do with my free time when it's all completed...and then reality comes and smacks me in the face and, with an evil chuckle, informs me that anything I do is going to take much longer than it should, simply because that is how my life works. I have been working on four papers and a concept map for Nature of Science for two days now, and I'm still not done. I'm getting close. But I'm not finished. And then I have health. And sociology. And studying. The studying is what probably means that I'm not going to have all that much free time tomorrow, either. Which is okay...spring break's coming up in five days (thank heavens!) and I can get everything I need to get done in those five days so there's very little spring break homework. But still. Aren't weekends supposed to be enjoyable?
Well, maybe not. My roommate's boyfriend is here again, so I'm spending basically all my time in my building's classroom, planning essays about paradigms and phrenology and science versus religion on the whiteboard and typing them up and listening to YouTube. And it's cold. And it's been raining for two days and it'll still be raining tomorrow, which would be ok, but it makes it excessively dreary and even colder. And I have a midterm on Monday for American Lit. Sigh. Hurry up, spring break!
Ok, that's really all I had to say. Now, go listen to "Rainy Days and Mondays" by the Carpenters. Or "Listen to the Rhythm of the Falling Rain," by Tory Barnet or "I Love a Rainy Night" by Eddie Rabbit or "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" by Olivia Newton-John or "I Don't Have to Be Me til Monday" by Steve Azar. (Or, better yet, go to this website I just found, http://www.lacarte.org/songs/rain/.)
Well, no, I don't really have a reason for suggesting this, aside from my obsessive YouTubing study habit. But they're good songs, anyway.
