Randomness and intolerable setbacks were the order of the day.
I failed yet another midterm, this time in Classical Studies. I guess failing is a little harsh, as its still barely at fifty percent, but for course material that I've experienced three times now, this is a disappointing result. Even if it were the first time I had seen the information, this is still a disappointing setback and a cruel reminder that I need to stop lazing around and actually do the work.
Why am I doing this to myself again? Its not like I don't have the time or the motivation, I just keep getting suckered into other things; I think in psychology they talked about this as the limited resource model of motivation. That everytime I have to fight off a distraction, I leave less mental energy to beat back the next one. Ooooh, yay! I can use that tomorrow for my psych test, which now sits in the realm of MUST SUCCEED for me, considering my woeful studies in my first year courses. I wonder if I'll ever see that other english essay again, or if its lost to the sands of time, never to be seen again in this life.
Time to start praying, I'm going to need a miracle now to make up for all my first month idiocy.
Song of the day: M2M - Don't say you love me
