So what happens the day I decide I want to read Truman Capote’s book for the TBR Challenge? I have to return it to the library in three days, k-o-ing my chances of reading it. I could have powered through it if I wanted to and still returned it on time but I’ve got stuff I need to read for class. Oh wells, I guess I’ll just have to take it out again when I have more time.

Time is what I really need. I’ve written out my bus schedule on my dry-erase board so I don’t have to keep looking it up and it’s sort of depressing. I have to leave between 6:20 am and 8:40 am to get to classes on time during the week. That ain’t cool. However, I’m glad I have only one class on Thursdays. It makes the week marginally easier.

Man, I downloaded all of these old school metal rock songs for some inexplicable reason awhile ago. Iron Man by Ozzy Osbourne just started playing. I think I went crazy when I was on Limewire. I think I downloaded some Judas Priest as well. What the deuce?

Today and yesterday were both productive days. Yesterday I managed to haul ass to the library after my full day of classes and pick up some books for an essay I’m getting a head start on. The problem with writing an essay on the second Iraq War is finding objective material on the subject. McMaster has like seventy books on the subject but it’s tough when titles range from Failed States: The Abuse of Power and the Assault on Democracy to Bush in Babylon : the recolonisation of Iraq there’s not a lot of room for objectivity. I just need a coles notes version so I can start my research on some foundation, you know?

Today was also productive because I finally cleaned off my desk. Tada!

Okay, so it doesn’t look that much neater but it’s definitely better than before. Oh and that stack of books on the corner of the desk is my research material for the previously mentioned essay.

Anyway, it’s time for bed so I’m heading off. Good night, folks!
