Murphy’s Law

So, I finally got my act together and submitted one assignment for English and made a very elaborate plan for both English and Geology so I can make it for my deadline July 16. It took me almost 2 hours to make my schedule and I figured out I am screwed. The next five weeks [...]

There is still hope

I actually worked for 5 hours this afternoon, if I could keep this up for a few days and maybe expand a bit… I am getting kind of bored of procrastinating, maybe I can pick up some speed again and get working on my courses more regularly. Let’s see how it will go for [...]

It won’t be a month between posts…

There isn’t much to report except for having bought a new calculator (Sharp EL-531W) which is very nice and the fact that I have started working on Math again, Algebra to be exact.

Procrastination…

I was thinking I should maybe post more on my blog. I had quite a bad week in my studies, I have no idea why I do get these ups and downs. I do know I need pressure, but I just waste half days on something stupid and then I feel bad about it.

Book shopping issues

When I started to plan my college, I soon figured out that all the books I need are going to be more expensive than the course fees etc.
So far I had pretty good luck in getting books from eBay, instead of more than USD 2000 I paid so far 550 for books. Even with [...]
