Naps are fun! Except how they totally screw up my entire week’s schedule, and how i’m supposed to be off helping someone rehearse Shakespeare right now because they promised to turn it into a drinking game. Ugh. College life isn’t so bad if you actually live it…

I think i secured two B’s today … in Literature i’ve been very aggressive in discussion ever since returning from my sick leave and today she returned one of my (rather shoddy) essays marked with an A. Seeing as she’s given me nothing but A’s on my essays and i always chat in class, doesn’t it seem rather pointless to give me a C just because of my spotty attendance (which was obviously largely due to continuing illness)? As it is i still do more reading and participating than half the class, even if i only come half of the time! Also, i got 2 points off of a perfect score in my final foray into Public Speaking, which assures me a B since both of my other speeches were B’s. Interestingly, even though i’m working my ass off to secure my precious precious B’s, i don’t have any class nearly as challenging or stressful as Philosophy was last term … in other words, i at least feel as though i have a basic understanding of all of my subject matter. Acting and Aural should both be A’s, so now i just have to play catch-up with recording class and hope for the best. (Although, it’s not entirely comforting that hoping seems to have as much weight as attendance at this point…)
