Things I need to do before May 8th (the last day of classes):

  1. Take two exams (linear algebra and visual perception). This seems grievously unfair. Finals start in about three weeks and yet I still have midterms in the near future?
  2. Write a paper on “Should marijuana be legalized?” I am deeply afraid that whatever I write will end up sounding like “Yes, because I am a stoner,” and this is for a prof whose opinion I highly value. Murf.
  3. Write a paper on “Is depression a disease of the brain?” Same class. Should be more interesting. (Yes, I may be the only person on this campus who would have this opinion.)
  4. Write a long (6000 words) paper on binding in vision. (That link is to the worst Wikipedia article I’ve encountered in a while. I’m almost tempted to go fix it, except, well, you see this list.) The real problem with this paper is that I haven’t really done any of the reading for it, let alone started writing it, because many of the resources I want aren’t at UNH, and the ILL online interface makes me want to cry.
  5. Rewrite and re-hand-in a paper on the kinetic depth effect. I swear, at this point, I can babble about this stuff in my sleep. I’ll tell y’all about that later.
  6. Put together a second video assignment for my ASL class.
  7. Do two final-draft quality homework sets for math.

And that’s just the schoolwork.
