Somebody stop me before I'm cast again.
Oct. 17th, 2006 08:26 pmI have my Lit in History II midterm Thursday, and I have never been so nervous about a lit. test. I never worry about lit. tests! It's literature. It's what I do. But I'm nervous about this one because the teacher is a little insane and if I'm being honest with myself I probably haven't been putting as much effort into the class as I possibly could and all-in -all I'm worried.
Add to that, I need to start my Philosophy final project, read all those selections for the Bible that I haven't done for Lit I, and do yet another writing assignment for my Religion course (gag).
So the sensible thing to do would be all that. The slightly less sensible thing would be to go take a nap or read or watch Queer as Folk, all things that I won't be able to do so much of over the last little while. Hell, I might even want to schlep over to Jim's to get in some quality friend time, since it's likely I won't be seeing anybody for ages, what with all the work I have coming.
Instead, what am I doing?
Preparing a monologue for my audition to be in the school production of Ibsen's The Wild Duck. Because if I was going to shoehorn yet another activity into my overloaded schedule, it should definitely be a long-running, soul-stealing, late-night-eating production of a rather dull play by an author I've never particularly liked.
On the other hand, my friend Mike tried out yesterday, and although in his estimation the audition went terribly, if he and I both get cast it will be almost like socializing with friends.
Although I still won't be getting any more sleep. Sigh.
