Life of an English Major

It’s Over

Spring Break is over. Time to get back into the regular sway of things. I’ve really enjoyed the time off and the extra sleep, so hopefully it won’t be too hard getting back on track.

I have stories to read tommorow and a midterm to study for, not to mention my everyday classes. Then I also have poems to read and comment on.

On the bright side I don’t have to work tommorow, so if I work hard and focus on my tasks, I will be able to get them done. The tasks themselves aren’t particularly hard or complex, just time consuming. The most time consuming part will be reading the short stories for my writing fiction class. I’ve started them, but have a lot more to read. For each ten page story I need to write a ten sentence critique, which isn’t that much work.

I am done with the reading for American Literature, so now it is time to reveiw the past readings thus far. This is what I did last semester, and it helped a lot for the short answer segment of the exam. We are given quotes and then asked to cite the work, author, and significance of the quote.

The poetry critiques are not due until class on Tuesday, so I am not too worried about getting those done. Plus, I have plenty of time between class to work on them.

I can do this, I’m motivated, and ready for class to start!
