Last week I forgot to go to my lecture until 9.20am when Kafx pointed out that I shouldn’t be working, but actually be in class.
Thursday I forgot to go to my tutorial until 4 hours after it was over, and this after ringing the tutor the day before to confirm time and place of said tut.
All term I’d not checked when end of term was, which heralds hand in date was for assessments for distance paper so carelessly neglected, until it came up in conversation today with my passenger on the way home from college.
Guess when the last day of term is?
Friday.
Shit.
Guess what I did tonight? I drove off to Koorong to get the textbook I have to critically review. It cost me $49.95 and I’ll be using it for all of 48 hours… small price to pay for not having to pay a late submission fee… Can I just say, thanks to Koorong for having such ridiculous opening hours? From Monday to Friday they’re open till 9pm. Because, you know, Christians could have a theology crisis at any minute and may need to pop on down to get the latest Bible translation or preachng/praise/worship cd…
Weird.
I’m not complaining of course, saved my [ahem] backside today, it did…
So right now, what am I doing?
Blogging… because this book I have to critically review is only 624 pages and as such I will be able to do it with my eyes closed.
Speaking of which, pull up a chair and pass the speed.
I’m going to be here all night.

How did it go? Did you churn out something useful?
Don’t talk to me about Uni papers. I have been an extremely neglectful, failing type of person this year, which sux the Big Kumara.
When the OH finds out, I am dead meat.
