What Are You Doing Right Now

I feel the same way about procrastination, AG95. That's how I did College English last year and how I approach US History class this semester. I probably shouldn't have this attitude about college app essays, but I didn't know until about 2 weeks ago that I wanted to go to a school where they require a personal statement. It's possible that an essay might not be necessary anymore, since I have to make some calls tomorrow to a few schools. I only got a 3 on the AP English Language exam, which doesn't qualify as English 1A at some schools. I took 1B and got an A, but that doesn't exempt me from doing 1A again b/c of a passing but not great AP score. A 3 is fine at a community college though.

I'm in the second and last required English course, English 1102 (English composition II). I'm currently thumbing through Hawthorne's Young Goodman Brown, trying to find 10 words that are unfamiliar to me. I have to look the words up, write down the definition I found, and compare the definition to the way Hawthorne used the word. I've found two words so far after nearly 20 minutes of studying 15 paragraphs. Who would've thought that having a huge vocabulary could hinder a person? This is going to take a while.

I wish you good luck with your calls, essays, exams, and classes, Rudie.

Thanks, AG95. I recommend just finding words that you think are difficult. I'm sure you know that already and just want to make a good faith effort. If it sounds old, then just do the work for it. Anyways, hope you've made good progress since then. It's almost 3 am over there.

Thanks Rudie. I found 4 more, so I've got 6 now. I'm going to find another 4 more after 6-7 hours of sleep. I'm glad that 2 pm class is my first class of the day.

I'm currently rejoicing because I finally got that 1,000 word History essay completed! I completed it after my math test (I made an 80 on it.) My math teacher helped me by proofreading it.

What movie were you watching, GA?

I'm at a CVS pharmacy getting medicines refilled for the month.

I think it was called Glory - The boys had it on already when I came in.

I'm finally resting and relaxing some by watching movies. These past 2 weeks have been hectic and have kept me very busy.
