How I am studying for finals:

Shit, I have a lot of reading to do.  Three full books and most of another, plus a few essays.  Then, if I really want to do well on my weather final, I have to study for about 13 hours on just the short answer questions.

(80 questions x 10 minutes to learn each)/(60 minutes in an hour)= a bit more than 13 hours to study that shit.  Then, there are about 7 problem sets, which are like math homeworks, and each of those took me like, 2 hours to learn and do (7 homeworks x 2 hours each= 14 hours of additional studying).  Hopefully the second time around won’t be so bad.

So I’m looking at over 24 hours of weather to study for.  Hmm, what else?

If I’d read Harry Potter 6 in 8 hours containing a total of 607 pages, that’s 75 pages an hour.  Let’s say I’ve got about 1000 pages to read in total for American Pop Culture, adding on, oh, about 2 hours because boring books take longer… and we’ve ended up with another 13 hours of work to do.

27 weather hours + 13 Am. Pop. hours= 40 hours of finals studying.

I have all of Friday, all of Saturday, and all of Sunday to study.  A three day weekend to study?  I think I’ll use those 72 hours for good, not evil.

If I really wanted to break it down, I’d say that of those 72 hours, at least 40 will be devoted to studying.  I’ll have 32 hours left to eat, sleep, and shower in between the intensity.  If I get 8 hours of sleep a day (x3 days=24 hours over the weekend), I’ll have (32-24) 8 hours left to eat and shower.  If I have 30 minute meals three times a day (.5 hours x 3 meals x 3 days= 4.5 hours devoted to eating), I’ll have 3 and a half hours left to shower.  I love showering, so we’ll say that I’ll take one 20 minute shower (including getting dressed) a day, spending a total of one (1) hour this weekend showering and dressing.

So we’ve got a 72 hour weekend, with 40 hours of studying, 24 hours of sleeping, 4 and a half hours of eating, and an hour showering.

72 -40 -24 -4.5 -1 = 2.5 hours left.

AND with those last 2 and a half hours this weekend I’ll have to spare, I should have just enough time to catch The Road tomorrow in theaters like I’d planned (including travel time).

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you can justify procrastinating all quarter long.  I’m good.

Nobody tells me things

My chinchilla jumped on a lamp last night and burned it’s skin/glorious fur on it’s stomach. Now she doesn’t jump around as much. I guess you could say she’s chill now heh. This is not a time for puns though… This is the exact situation whoever created the concept of lamp shades was trying to avoid.

It also took me about a week to realize Ryan started school.

I love lamp

Can we make chinchilla babies still?  They’ll coincidentally require a heating lamp should any be born.

Oh eff.

I’m so ballsy!

On another note, there are exactly 14 hours until my essay is due!  Sure seems like I’m always procrastinating my essays.  Last one of the quarter, I swear.
