Ughhhh I actually have work to do!!! No fun! I have a 2,000 word paper that is due on Tuesday at 11 am that I am going to attempt to write the majority of today (keyword: attempt) since I also have to send in an outline of my 12 page final paper that is due next week. Well, for everyone else in the class it is due June 27 but because I will be back in the US by then I decided that I am going to aim to hand it in before I leave so that I don't have to worry about it when I am home (keyword: aim).


Oh, and to top that all off, I have a final on Tuesday, June 21-- the day before I go home. Mind you that this final is in a class where the teacher is not there more than he is there due to the fact that he is either a) at an art conference (the class is called "Media, Modernity, and the Arts"), b) we are watching a documentary so he didn't feel the need to come, or c) because he lives in Brussels, as in Belgium, as in a different country, and it just isn't "that convenient". When I heard the teaching assistant use the latter as an excuse for why our teacher wasn't at the front of the room one morning, I felt like raising my hand and letting her know that it isn't exactly convenient for me to bike 20 minutes into town either. But, I managed to keep that one to myself.


So in answer to the question that I am sure you have all been wondering since you woke up on this summer morning-- "What is Arielle doing today?


 The answer is......


work.


Booooo-ring
