Last free day

This was my last free day until exams begin. I will have to buck up over the next month while a couple good films come out as well. On that subject, I'm glad the Academy did something right tonight by having Heath win. With Watchmen coming out on March 6th and Monsters vs Alien's the last week of March, it looks to finally be a good month for films. I've been thinking of watching slumdog millionaire before it leaves the theatre, but I don't know when I'll have time to watch it. It just occured to me that I could watch it Thursday before work, or even Friday before work. I think I should do that. Although that would take time away from working on my numerous projects that are up to be done soon. My marketing analysis will be due in 2 weeks on Thursday and I want a lot of it to be done, or even most of it by the time Watchmen hits.

This also means that it's playoff season. It's exactly the perfect time for the Oilers to start sucking too. I want to see another playoff run in my lifetime and I have only ever seen one. It was perhaps the best start to a summer I've ever had. Well, it was the best summer I ever had. If I can get a video idea thought of and start on my marketing project by the time I get to sleep tonight, I will be pleased. I should also think about studying more over the next couple days. Just reading the textbook wont help me with my short answer questions that are going to be on the test.

Good luck to me. With 28 school days left, I'm already counting them down.

:(

It begins again. My week off from school is just about over and studying begins again today. I just want to be able to do this everyday. This being sit around and do almost nothing. Actually, now that I think of it, I don't like that I've done almost nothing for the past 4 days. The days keep going by faster and faster. I've been going to bed at 5 am as well, doing nothing but just sitting on my laptop doing useless things. School finish faster please?! I am also not excited about the influx of group projects that are coming up. Both are due at the end of the term but working on them right around now seems like a good thing to do. I also have to start working on a marketing paper that has to be under 1000 words. With bits of research in them. I hate doing research. It is due in 3 weeks today, meaning I'm going to start working on it on my typical homework day, Sunday. I will just have to suck it up and just go.

I wanted to make a new video over this week, because most of the week I would have nothing preoccupying me. Well I guess I will have to do it today, among a couple other things. Its just depressing that I know I won't have another day off for the rest of the term. Everyone has Good Friday off, while I don't even have school on Friday's. Monday doesn't count either because exam's start the next day. I'm really hoping my exam days are all in the same week. That way I do not have to start studying until the beginning of April.

I've noticed I used this blog to only talk about my hatred for school. I need to stop that. I need to also stop just posting once a week. I will try to post again before school starts up again on Monday. Not that my 4 day school weeks don't go by fast enough as it is.

The NHL playoffs also start right around the time of exams as well. If everything goes well, the Oilers will make the playoffs this year for the first time since going to the Stanley cup finals in 2006. That was one of the best summer's I've had in a long time. This summer is going to top that though.
