Thirteenth night

Ok.  I think we've finally passed the halfway point.  After this night at least.

Although I didn't get the 4 essays done (I only got 2 done today), I got 5 math sections done.  I don't know why, but it's really difficult to motivate myself to practice those essays.  Probably because A) they might not be worth as much and B) it's hard to actually see/feel the reward of working for them.  Math I can, because I can get swifter and I'm remembering things better and learning more of my bind spots.  But when I'm writing essays that don't have a right or wrong answer, and it's impossible to know what kind of grade they would get (without paying), it's just really difficult to want to do them.

But I do have another 4 on my game plan tomorrow.  Maybe I'll get into the swing of it and do them all in a row.  That's probably how I have to motivate myself - to just get it done.

So glad I don't have that extra class tomorrow.  That means I'm home before lunch and I have the rest of the day to study.

My hands are starting to hurt from all the writing.  It really brings me back to my school days (and is a preview of what's to come?)  And my butt and back hurt from sitting in that chair all day. I don't know how B. sat and wrote for nearly a year day in and day out.  I can hardly conceive of doing it for 3 weeks, and I'm even working in the mean time.

12 more days.  Just 12 more days and this waiting game is all over.
