OMG, ugh.
I was up until almost midnight last night finishing a paper for my English class. I know, I could have done it earlier, but I felt like crap almost all weekend, and it was too hot to think anyway.
Plus, my teacher assigned it last Monday, but didn't really fully explain the assignment till Wednesday. And it was a 3-page research paper. Bleh.
I'm sort of tired of the First Ammendment now, in that way of "I just wrote a paper on this and I don't want to have to look at it again for a while" so I hope we're moving on to other issues in class this week.
Sorry I've been such a ghost, most of the time lately I've been feeling like crap, sleeping, or trying to get my crap together for the paper. Which I really hope more people turn in than did our last homework assignment (right, 'cause if they didn't do the one-page writeup on the newspaper article he gave us, which wasn't even hard and took me like half an hour, they're gonna do a 3-page paper. Riight.) But I'm hoping, because last time 16 out of the 35 someodd people in class turned in the homework, and he doesn't take late work unless you were absent, knew you'd be absent, and talk to him about it beforehand. Which basically means never.
Anyway, I do hope a few more people turn in the paper, because last time we got treated to a ten minute mini-lecture on why this isn't high school and people need to be doing their work. I really do appreciate where the prof is coming from, and I'd be pissed too, but I've always hated getting stuck listening to lectures about things I did if I was supposed to, or didn't do if I wasn't supposed to.
In other news, they're saying today's high will "only" be 97 or so, and the humidity's back to around 12%, which I can deal with. Last week's 106-108s with 30/40% humidity sucked. So did the day when it was hot, muggy, around 50% humidity, with a thunderstorm. That the weather guys swore would stay up in the mountains instead of coming to the valley.
Heh, whoops. Morons.
In still other news, when I should've been working on my paper last night, I was watching this new series called "JAIL", brought to you by the producers of "COPS." It follows criminals for a bit inside the city/county jails after they've been arrested.
Funniest damn thing I've seen in years. Some of it was a bit 'oO' like the van full of hookers the cops picked up in Las Vegas, but then there were these two drunk guys who were best friends.... one was Russian and had maybe three teeth, and they were having a fantastic time...
Great stuff. :)
