"It is not the ctitic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Sorry I'm Negative

Finals Week
Where fun goes to die

(I know it's not finals yet-but I liked the quote and I can feel them coming)

Honestly, all I can think about right now is homework. Well, that and finally being done with homework :) Only ten more days of classes! Oh, and I found out today I have three finals on one day-the last day of finals, in fact. I'll have BOM 8-10 am, Modern American Usage 11-2, and British Literary History 8-10 pm. At least I have all finals week to study...

Last week before my ELang. class started everyone was talking about the end of the semester and everything that comes with it. Someone stated something I totally relate to. They said that you get so much done that you think you deserve a break, but you don't have time to take a break because you have so many other things to do. Ya, obvious, I know. But really, the last day and a half has felt like a week. I seriously thought today was Thursday when I woke up.

I'm thinking I can get everything done if I don't sleep for the next three nights-maybe. I honestly can't see how it'll all get done. I totally let my literary criticism paper go and sluffed class because I haven't even done any research yet. I just keep reminding myself I only have just over three weeks left.

Happier note! I am actually ahead when it comes to my ELang. course project :) It's almost half way done and not due for two weeks!
