end-of-semester...pinks?

Well, it has been quite an eventful six weeks since I've last written and I shall in no way attempt to recount those events here. Suffice it to say, I've been very very busy, but not with schoolwork. I have few complaints, actually, save this blasted paper that I've been trying to write.

It's really my fault because I should have been thinking about it all semester. I've certainly known about it all semester, including the due date...which was last Thursday. What happend, you ask? Well, let me tell you...

The class began to really irritate me with its monotony and the drudgery of listening to our professor go on and on about topics that I had not thought about and thus have no contribution for. In addition to this, it was Holy Week the week before the paper was due and I had services every day. AND I had no idea what I was going to write on and every time I thought I had it figured out, I would find some huge hole and/or change directions entirely.

So here I am, one class day after the paper was due (which translates to five calendar days, which makes me even more of a procrastinator), buried in a pile of books at a lonely table in a very empty, very quite corner of the library. I've been here since just before 8 o'clock and I'm fairly certain that I will still be here when the library closes at midnight. I spent the first two hours writing three paragraphs...

Pray for my soul!!
