Thanksgiving Week Wrap-Up

There’s so much to say, I don’t even know where to get started. First off, I haven’t abandoned you avid readers. I have been away for a while, which you would know if you do actually read the posts on the site. I did write a couple of posts in … Continue reading →

Ethnography, The Gatekeepers, & Creek Hill

Another day gone by. Another late night. It’s definitely time for me to go to bed. I worked on my ethnography project for a couple of hours tonight, and I was completely ticked off by something I had forgotten to do. I had saved my work on the Peavy family … Continue reading →

Powerful

What a day! And I don’t mean What a day! It was great!, but I mean What a day, it was long and hard and seemed to suck all the life I had left in me! I, literally spent 10 1/2 hours on campus today. I went from 9:00 am … Continue reading →

Gray Hair By Semester's End

Yes, another late night for me. Hmmm. Those seem to be happening rather frequently don’t they? At least I’ve made it past the midpoint of the week without breaking. I suppose I’ll have to thank the gods for that one. Or rather yet, thank the 4 hours of shuteye that … Continue reading →

Essay #2 Complete

What a long night. A long day, in fact. I finished up my Contemporary British Lit paper at around 12:00 am. I had it all, mostly, written last night. I just needed to cover all my mistakes in sentence structure, you know, make it look purty and all. I feel … Continue reading →

Sleep, Gresham's Madness, & Eva Longoria

SLEEP. It seems such a wonderful thing. Such a thing of long-lost memories that are beyond long gone now. If only I could get a wonderful 8 hours…Maybe even a slightly wonderful 6 hours of undisturbed, unadulterated shut-eye. I finally caught up with my reading of Bram Stoker’s Dracula (page … Continue reading →

The Gazillionth Site Reconstruction

I’m almost finished for the week. Just one more day to go, and I will have the luxury of playing with this website for an entire weekend. I just have 2 more pages to write on my Ethnography of Literacy for my Advanced Composition class. Two more pages! Yeah, like … Continue reading →
