"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."

Nothing Important

~The same fence that shuts others out shuts you in.
~Bill Copeland

Dear blog readers,

I have nothing important to say. Yep, that's why I have a blog!!! No really, I was reading for American Lit and decided I needed a ten minute break. So I got on the internet to check my Facebook and whatnot... that was an hour ago.

I would ask how it's possible to waste so much time online, but I think everyone has had such an experience... or a few million. And this is guaranteed if you're a student. So I don't feel the need to go there. But blogger is my last stop before I go get something done... or maybe eat some dinner. Well, if we have any clean silverware left, which isn't likely.

But, I was able to get a few things done... I found my priority date for Fall 2011 registration... in three weeks. And I started looking up class times and teachers for the classes I need. I don't know what it is but I get so excited when it comes to planning my new class schedule. Even when I know I'll be hating all those classes soon enough. It's just exciting to see how it all fits together and for something new!

I also typed up all the authors for American Lit and what they wrote for my second mid-term this weekend. So I can memorize who wrote what and how to spell their names and the titles of their pieces so I can match them with the quotes on the test from their pieces. Ya, almost all the points I lost on my last test were from that section.

And, I'm working on getting my blogging caught up-so I can mark that off my list!
