Things We'd Rather Not Do This Week

peekaboo2011

Homework.  I'm done.  Between having 47 days until graduation and trying to find a job so we can figure out what we're doing after May (and therefore set a date), I don't want to do anything.  And I'm finding it ridiculous that my professors are not understanding that.  I get that I'm in one class that's like a freshman class, and one that's mostly sophomores, but I'm a senior.  I don't have it in me to care anymore.  And the six parties for Seniors coming up aren't helping.

Okay, I'm done venting.  What don't you want to do this week?

Happy Monday!

I don't want to be here at the office until after 9pm tonight. I have a call scheduled with someone in CA, and so it's going to be a wicked late night for me.

I was in a similar pair of shoes this time last year, about to graduate from grad school. Best of luck to you in these last few weeks!

Everything that I have to do for school! This week is killer! (Next week too, actually.) I do not want to go to 4 student leadership classes. I do not want to write 2 finals. I do not want to do about 7 assignments. I'd rather just go to class (maybe, even that's iffy) and volunteer. This term has killed me, and I'm going into 8 months of full-time work, so I'm pretty checked out.

I don't want to do case briefs for Media Law or do my art project in Photoshop. Or clean my apartment.

I'd rather not come back to this paralegal business this week. My mom called me Sunday night and asked me to cover for her again today and maybe Tuesday. Well, we had a SURPRISE!snowstorm this morning and an hour-long drive took me nearly three hours. We were only supposed to get a quarter on an inch, instead I woke up to nearly an inch and a half on my car! I really, really hope she doesn't ask me to come in again tomorrow.

I don't want to do laundry and clean the guest room for the arrival of my bf's mom. It's her spring break and she wants to spend some of it here. I also don't want to buy books for my next 3 classes. They're going to be expensive and I want to use that money for something fun, like hiking clothes!

And I don't want to have to call a doctor today and cancel my appt for tomorrow, because I don't want to ever see her again. So freakin' awkward.

I rather not work on my graduate paper and see my advisor Wednesday.  Boo....

Peekaboo - I was in that exact situation one year ago. Good luck with the job hunt!

I don't want to sit in my freezing cold office all day. I love the windows, and it's interesting watching the wind storm that's going on, but I'd rather be snuggled up on my couch with BF and my dogs!

I'm on spring break but I don't want to hang out with BF's friends that are on spring break too this week. I would rather just have a fun week with BF without his lame friends. Oh well, I'll just smile through it.

Taxes!

Am I the only one left in this boat? I have the feeling I'm pretty behind.

Oh me too... I feel like such a slacker in the tax area... I haven't started mine!

I don't wanna work I have to work everyday this week until friday. So I go to school and 8:30 until 4:30 and then turn around after school, drive straight to work, and work 5 to 9.

Booo, real world sucks.

My mom still does my taxes...so those were done by Feb 1 because brother needed his FAFSA stuff (he's starting college in the fall!).

I about snapped in my organic class today.  I've hit the wall pretty hard, and little things are starting to seriously upset me (someone started shaking their leg, which started shaking the table, our prof wanted a "reaction diagram" instead of writing linearly...).  Normally, this would be a PMS cue, but that's not possible.

On the bright side, I presented Saturday for our school's conference, and it went REALLY well.  I submitted the same abstract to a national conference, and I'm thinking there's a good chance it's going to get accepted (we got an email from the secretary saying they had room for more). And with the time that it took me to present, and only having half the data, it's going to run without a hitch if I get to present in July!  Hooray!!!

The job interview I just did. Those things are stressful, man! Also, writing the page on why I want the job. I want the job because I need money and I'd rather work for a non-profit and make a difference, okay?!

I do not want to do my homework or go to class this week. 

I sent my taxes in mid February and they still aren't back yet from my accountant...grrr.

*high five*

I am in the same boat. Just write what you feel! If you are willing to take the pay cut, then this is something you're obviously passionate about. If you are true to yourself, that passion will come through in the essay.

I just wrote an  essay for an education development organization that I applied to. It's no masterpiece, but it may help to read someone else's. Let me know if you would like me to send it to you.

I don't want to/have much time to study for my French test.  Which sucks because it's a pretty picky chapter. 
I also haven't started my taxes... Gah I need to get on that.  Like now. 
Basicly I am tired of doing school and nothing fun anymore.  Time to do something fun again!

I don't want to take my bio test tonight. I don't want to deal with meeting with all of my professors. I don't want to study for my sorority quiz. I don't want to deal with 30 degree weather after a wonderful week at hime with 70 degree weather. I just want to cuddle in my bed and watch movies :P

I cannot wait until summer!
