Assignments Done!

I had three response assignments needing to be done by 11:59 PM. And they are all now completed. I can rest for the remainder of the night.


School Project Completed!

I had to interview a teen between the ages of 13 and 17. As I’m a 57-year-old man, that age group is not one I interact with often. My choices were slim to none. But, one of those choices was my 17-year-old niece. The interview was around her online social media use. I managed to write a 3 and a half page (Arial, 12 pt font, double-spaced) paper. I feel pretty confident about how I did. Now, I have to read someone’s post for this week’s subject and write a response.

School Work Avoidance

I should be reading and completing a quick assignment for one of my classes, and instead, I’ve been surfing Facebook and playing chess. But, that’s enough of that, time to get to work.

Me, not you.

Sheesh.

Update: Okay, okay. I successfully avoided school work avoidance. My assignment due Friday night at 5 to midnight has been completed and turned in. Now get off my back about it. And get off my lawn!

Close Call!

I managed to read the last 10th of one chapter, the full next chapter, as well as watch two videos, ace my quiz (Yeah Me!) and get two posts in the discussion forum all within two hours. I made it with 9 minutes to spare. And the kicker? I never felt under pressure once.

Not All That Fun

While one of my classes gave me the Thanksgiving weekend off – that means no assignments – the other class decided to double up and have two assignments due this week. Yeah, it sucked. And the class is not all that great. It started out with all sorts of technical glitches that put us behind. Plus, a lot of what we are doing doesn’t match with the book we had to buy. And the software program for planning a start-up is a piece of crap. It does not allow for simultaneous editing by a group. Only one person at a time can get in to edit. That’s bogus. There is supposedly a second part of this class. I am not taking it. Too much financial stuff that I just am not educated to deal with. Nor is it what I want to learn.

Done!

Okay, okay. I finished all my assignments. Including an extra one. I didn’t think one of the classes had a project for today. Thankfully it wasn’t that hard.

Now, how about you all just get off my back about homework, okay?

Jerks.

Homework

What is this homework you speak of?

Yes, I am supposed to be working on my school assignments. So, that means cleaning my office and desk.

Sigh.

I blame you.

Future Postings

I’ve got a bunch of runs saved from the past two to three weeks that I will eventually get around to posting. With winter here (for the moment) I’m taking advantage of my Anytime Fitness membership. Nothing too extreme though. Just used an elliptical and did some pushups. I can tell I took too many days off – my pushups were far short of what I normally can do. Yet, it was nice to take a few days off from working out.

On the school front, I continue to complete my work on time and not at the last minute. Hopefully I can continue that trend. Also, I managed to get up early enough to journal. It’s been a while. Once a part of my daily morning routine, I had put it aside to concentrate on school work. However, it soon became apparent I wasn’t really getting up and doing school work anyway. So, this morning I reinstated morning journal writing. Surprisingly I found I had time for both the journal and my school work. And the workout!

Who knows how long this will last. But, I seem to have the energy, so I’m not going to let it go to waste. For all I know, tomorrow I’ll be back to my usual slacker self.

Another Successful Completion

I am most happy. I managed to already complete my assignments that were due by 11:55 PM tonight. I even managed to do so without feeling rushed or under the gun. Granted, I could have done a more thorough job of my Pro position paper for one class had I done the research earlier. But to be honest I would probably had over thought the damn thing and made it worse than what I produced tonight. Besides, I’ll get some direction from others and be able to craft a better finished product. It was a draft, after all.

With Time to Spare!

I finished all assignments due for my two classes today. I’m taking Tina to her procedure tomorrow morning so I’ll bring my books with for next week’s assignments and readings. Now it’s time for me to go to bed
