White and nerdy

I have come to the conclusion that I am a nerd. I have just spent the past half hour doing something so incredibly geeky and nerdy that I refuse to tell you exactly what it was, but trust me - very nerdy. And to add to my nerdiness, here I am blogging again with no real purpose behind this post - none. I managed to get some things done today - not much, but it's a start. I gave my Spanish presentation - which I am glad to have over. When I walked into the class room, mi profesora dijo, "Aquí está ella, nuestra salvador." Our hero? Oh, right, because I volunteered to go first, gotcha. Anyway, I don't like speaking in front of people - I get stage fright and my voice does weird things if it decides to funtion at all - but I did all right. That's the beauty of going first, though - they're always more lenient on your grade. And then I got my philosphy paper back. Last time, she gave me a B because I didn't explain two (2!) sentences well enough. So this time, I wrote out more than I needed to, making sure to explain every little thing. The paper length was supposed to be 3-4 pages, double spaced. I wrote seven. And I got an A! Well done, if I do say so myself! So when I made it back to my room, spicy (ha!) italian sub in hand, I didn't feel like doing a damn thing. But I somehow made myself finish my chemistry homework and my spanish paper, and then I decided to rest my eyes for a bit. I woke up an hour later and haven't done anything substantial since - I feel almost rebellious. But come tomorrow, that feeling will subside when I realize how much I have to do in the next three days. But on the bright side - it's the last bit of real work I'll have to do before finals. I can't wait for Friday!
