So.
I finished my (irritating) paper. I think it's pretty good.
However, as I wrote it in small bits which I then "strung together like a beaded necklace" (as my Favorite Prof, Shelley, would say). However, when I did the stringing, all of my lovely quotations went from being single-spaced to being double-spaced.
So the pages were off, and there's this big gaping hole in the text (I'd hit enter a few times in order to keep a quotation together and, when it did this, the quotation above it bumped the two spaces into the middle of the next page... grrr...).
Anyway. Complain, complain, complain.
Glad it's due on Friday instead of yesterday. ;-)
I figure I'll try to convince my room-mate to edit the thing for me (I did the editing yesterday) so that when I'm doing the repairs that i have to make anyway, I might get to turn in a better paper in the process. :-)
Wish me luck! :-)
Last night I invigilated (sp) the SRS 1110A final exam. What fun. Half the people are done in the first half-hour, most of what's left are done by the end of the first hour, and then you sit and wait for the last half-dozen who take another 45 minutes.
Ah, well. You get to chat with eachother. :-)
I went and saw Paul play guitar with his friend Wayne at the open-mike (mic?) night at the Elbow Room last night. :-)
Sadly, Paul's accoustic was (for some unknown reason) gnerating a big heap of feedback on the microphone he was using, so he was kind of between a rock and a hard place because whenever he got his instrument close enough to mic to be heard, the feed-back would drown it out, but if he backed off you couldn't hear him at all.
<:-( He borrowed someone elses guitar for their last song, so I was able to hear him then. It was nice. :-) Still in Love. :-) I'm gonna go eat breakfast, now. :-) Then it's on to a take-home exam for me. :-) - Nam'ara, - Amazon. :-)
