Re-evaluating my taste in, well, pretty much everything
The last few days have been pretty awful, well, certain events led it to be that way. Today my inorganic chemistry class met for the last time and we gave presentations at our professors house. We also had to turn in a five page paper. Ok, that doesn't sound so bad, except that I didn't really start thinking about this paper until about, Friday. Friday night, I was in the library just searching random things, "inorganic chemistry," "ultrafast ligands" etc. And then something fell upon my lap, and I ended up coming up with solar cells, they actually have a purpose for the research. Saturday morning, arrive at the library at 9.15am, continue to find articles. Ryan arrives around 11.30am, we chat about my paper, he tells me everything will be fine, we talk through it. He leaves a few hours later. I eventually leave the library at 5.20pm, at this point I have one page written. It made me want to throw up, I was scared that this paper was not going to get done.
Took a five hour break to go to a masquerade ball, which was quite enjoyable, some moments better than others, but who has a perfect evening when a paper is looming on your mind? My friends are hanging out after the ball, and I come back to my dorm, and start work on the paper. Around 2.00am, I realize that I cannot concentrate anymore, and have to sleep, again, feeling very uneasy about it. My alarm wakes me up at 8.00am (Sunday) and for the next two hours, somehow I get out two more pages and am then done!
After the fesitve celebration upon completion of the paper with the topic of, "Dye-sensitized solar cells" wore down, I headed to my indoor intramural soccer game (which we won) and came back with bruises on my shins. I quickly write up the presentation, shower and head over to the professor's house at 4.30pm, we all leave the house at 9.30pm, my classmates are wonderful. I mean this with all truthiness.
Tomorrow starts finals week, yeah, it is scary. But I don't have 7.45am class, I get to sleep in, and just watched Center Stage. This is a movie I watched in junior high with my friends and loved it. I still love it, but I was watching, it made me chuckle quite a few times at the dialogue and the actors, it is cute when dancers try to be actors. Does this mean I have reevaluate all of my taste in movies? Yes, people have informed me that I have bad taste, or no taste in movies, but I can still love them, right?
