The Voices in my Head - January 2007

Run, Forrest...RUN!!!

January 5th 2007 04:55
46 down...0 more assignments to do in 1 days...DONE!!!


DONE! DONE! DONE!

Okay, this post is a motivator for me. An experiment in self-will and determination. I am going to post the assignments I have to get done for this semester. As I complete them, I am going to cross them out, - (You have to love that new delete key!)-, and post the grade I received. I am going to update this once per week to keep me going.

I have to complete all of this work by March 10...but just in case it's too much to do, I have asked for an extension of April 10, which has been approved. It's expensive, though. So, hopefully, I will get this done on time.

JohnDoe,
I am getting some work done. I have completed five more assignments and I am nearly done with a Theology paper and a creative writing assignment. So, I am feeling better. I will have 34 more to do. Still a lot, but less than I had. *smile*

Thanks for asking and keep coming back,

Ash,
Things are going really well. I am confident that I can finish on time now. It's becoming an easier process to whip out 600 word essays in a couple of hours, including study time, because I have had to write much bigger papers throughout the semester.

Thanks for stopping by again, I really appreciate your support!

Let me know what you think of Autumn Grace~
