This has been a rough week. Amongst other things, I've been overloaded with work. It's now 11pm, and I've just finished the last research paper. It's taken me almost two weeks to grade them because they're long and I had to check for plagiarism (about 20 kids plagiarised). Overall, they were disappointing, but I did have many a good ones in there. But the research paper has ended.
Mom and I went to furniture shopping today. We both spent an ungodly amount (an amount that I've rarely spent in one or two sittings) and I think I am just now starting to breath again. But I now have a fantastic new couch and a fantastic new dining set for my new apartment - all I need now is a new mattress and maybe a coffee table and/or end table. Even though I've lived in many new apartments and have moved from Houston to BR and BR to Houston, I almost feel like this is a new beginning. New school, new area of town, new apartment, new furniture.
But the important thing is that my grading is caught up, I've written 2/3 of my finals (I have to finish my 11th grade final, and I'll do that Monday morning), I've written my final exam reviews, and I'm ready for this upcoming week. Tomorrow I'm going to re-read act 4 of Hamlet, and maybe get to spend a little time for my own personal writing.
Cheers!
