Notes to Self

Finals are done! As is the rewrite of the midterm that I was whining about. Whew. This is a finals period I will not miss. Though it did mark my first time ordering delivery pizza to the office. Or really, maybe, ever.


While I was trying to churn out pages, I left a lot of notes to myself in the margins. The two people who read my drafts when I was present laughed at one or the other at some point. So I'm saving some of my favorites. (And then deleting extra files from the computer. Common theme tonight.) Not sure this will be interesting to anyone other than future me. And not positive about that one either.

  • Blargh. Need to get something done here, but just don’t wanna. Whine whine whine. But I’m spoiled by this lifestyle and really should work for it.
  • I thought I knew what I was talking about, but now I’ve lost all confidence. It’s hard to care anymore.
  • Same word? Really?
  • Right word?
  • Ditto.
  • Ugh, that word again. Suggestions for what to use instead?
  • I got sick of typing curricula/curriculum currici-ick new word please! Can change it back if you think I should
  • I wanted to use prognosticate but I didn’t. Marvel at my restraint
  • Feel like [prof] won’t like my phrasing here. But it makes sense to me. BAH.
  • I like this paragraph. Please tell me it’s okay.
  • Don’t need [the author's] first name. Even if I want it
  • Hate this sentence. Just needed something here
  • Bullshit
    Not including it as the close of the sentence, but kinda want to
  • Okay that citation is ridiculous
  • Add a bit more here. Make it fancy

Closing observation. Apparently I don't use punctuation to close the last sentence in these notes to myself. Work on that

Ha ha. I wanted to write "bullshit" several times in my paper for Modern Theories. Getting our sass on.

(Sass like sassiness, not like the database.)
