I'm going to hate the month of April...  
It's gotten to that point in the semester where I'm both physically and mentally tired thinking "Damn all this to hell!" NG

Next month will be the month of hell since it's the end of the semester and EVERYTHING is freaking due around the same time period !!

Why?! Why is everything so close in dates to each other? There are pairs of things due one after the other!! There's no in between!! WHY !?

. April 1st: Will need to clear essay topics with the professors
. April 4th: Modern & Contemporary Chinese Art class test [1.5 hours]
. April 5th: The Archaeology of Ancient China 400 word report
. April 12th: Queer Readings of Chinese Cinema final paper (12 pages)
. April 13th: Modern & Contemporary Chinese Art final paper (8-10 pages)
. April 16th: The Archaeology of Ancient China class test [1.5 hours]
. April 17th: Terrestrial Planets final exam [3 hours] (starts at 9AM)

I have absolutely no worries for the things listed on the fourth and fifth of April since the Modern Art class test will simply be identification and the Archaeology word report is just 400 words long writing about an outside Asian related event/lecture that took place sometime during the semester. I plan on just copy/pasting my LJ entry and expand a bit when I went to the museum with my Modern Art professor (HERE) since the Archaeology professor approved of it lightbulb

It's those final papers that are worrying me the most at the moment do to their close proximity to each other (12th and 13th). For Modern Art, I have an idea of what topics I want to do, but no guidelines have been given, so I don't know what to write about it. For the Queer class, I have absolutely no idea what to write on, but guidelines were given for it pencil

The Modern Art professor had initially scheduled the class test to be on the same day as the final paper (April 13th), but when the class voiced their concern about it, she had sweetly moved the date up a week and a half to accommodate us. This means that there will be less material on the test and she plans schedule another museum outing for us on one of the days since she won't have to really "teach" hearts

I'm also dreading the Archaeology class test and the Terrestrial Planets exam (16th and 17th). They're also too close in dates to each other with no study room in between the both of them. I'll at most have the weekend to study for the two of them, but it'll be a pain to do so downarrow

After this hellish doom and torture that I'll be going through, I'll be free from this sadist relationship I have with McGill University (until the fall) and do other things, such as:

. Finish fansubbing the joint Arashi videos that [livejournal.com profile] arashinorakuen has with [livejournal.com profile] ao_no_michi
. Clean my room. Remember THIS? Yeah, it's about 100X worse now.
. Pack for the week I'll be down in Texas with [livejournal.com profile] kaitousessha
. Catch up on all the dramas/tv series and mangas/manhwas 
. Read the novels that people gave me to read
. Subtitle additional videos for Victor
. Burn/transfer files on PC and HDD

Why aren't my ducks here yet?! I want to hear them quacking in our backyard!! Judging from the entries that I did from last year (01 02 03), they should be coming soon... Within the next week or so...

All I can say is good luck.

EH? No ducks yet? Well the weather is a bit weird and they most likely got slowed up due to the sudden heat wave that hit down in the 48. I just found out the other day we have a bunch of ducks that didn't even travle south this winter. Must have sucked since we're only a few inches under record snowfall for the city ever. I'm sure they'll be showing up soon though. ^^

I love ducks~

They're amazingly playful and they've been yearly coming over to the backyard around this time in the springtime <3

They flew over today!!

Wow.... Good luck on working on all of those!
I can see you lying on your bed once they are ALL over :)

I'm going to pass out and recuperate for a month by doing a marathon of 「花より男子」when this hell is over.
[identity profile] showjuro.livejournal.com on March 25th, 2012 12:55 am (UTC)
I feel like rewatching the entire series as well >.
[identity profile] corlee1289.livejournal.com on March 25th, 2012 04:25 am (UTC)
Yes!

I really want to marathon and rewatch the entire series :3

It's such an epic love story between the great Almighty-sama and Makino <3
[identity profile] showjuro.livejournal.com on March 26th, 2012 08:59 am (UTC)
It definitely is the one and only drama series that I can watch again and again endlessly for so many years! My parents always roll eyes at me during my marathons XD

Woah, there's quite a bit of things to get over with!
GOOD LUCK!!! I'm sure all these would be over in a blink of an eye!

With my Oshawott seemingly holding the melon cake when I fly down there, right?

*grins*

I'm going to glomp that plush so much when I come down there <3

Otsukaresama!
Wow you have been busy lately! :O
What's your major?
Hope you do well on those tests!

I'll be taking SAT,ACT, STAR, and Finals soon. =_=;;;
Dreading my birth month already.

And I just recently watched the last episode of Inu Yasha! I just love the ending with Sesshomaru glaring at Kagome when she yells, "ONII-CHAN!" ROFL

Okay, time to clean my room now! *files like the wind*

I'm a double major of Psychology and East Asian studies.

Happy early birthday!! I hope I'll be able to send you one on your birthday, but with the craziness of this month, it's likely that I'll end up overwhelmed in work.

InuYasha!! I love that series, I still haven't been able to fully finished watching "The Final Act", instead I had to scene skip through the anime to watch the pivital parts (since I finished reading the manga). But I plan on watching the entire series once this hell of university is finished for the semester.

I need to clean my room, it really does look like a hurricane went and tore through my room. I don't want to clean it now because then I'll have moved everything everywhere and I won't know where I placed any of my important papers. I plan on cleaning it once I'm finished with the semester so that it won't matter if I end up misplacing papers or textbooks.

Wow! I was thinking of Majoring in psychology... but now I'm leaning more towards at the arts side.

Thank you! I'd be happy to receive a card, but it isn't necessary since you have your own work to do. Ga yow!

I haven't finished the manga yet (probably never will). I just read the last volume and watched the last episode. xD I plan to go on some kind of jdrama marathon once I'm done with this school year too~

I cleaned my room! I kind of had to because my parents were calling it a 垃圾桶 for a whole week. LOL. I found stuff while cleaning it too~ I just hope now that I remember where I put all my stuff away.
