Rockin’ Like It’s 1999.
I gave a presentation on self-publishing today, and I ROCKED it. People were engaged, they were interested, they asked questions. Melanie came to see me in the library afterwards, and told me that it was fantastic, that I don’t have to worry about my grade. Since the presentation counts for 20% of our mark, it’s an understatement to say I was thrilled.
We received our major editing projects back, along with plenty of comments. I got a DI; not the HD I was hoping for, but much better than the CR I was expecting. Apparently, it does help to set the bar low. I did the proofreading exam, too; not saying how I went on that until the results are in front of me. Regardless, I will pass Editing, and that’s good enough for me. Next year is when the marks really count.
I still have a bit of homework to finish, but it’s rapidly diminishing. I’m surprised, to be honest, by how easy it has been to ignore the internet and get my work done; the internet ban must have worked. Next year will be completely different in terms of organisation, though. I’ve learnt so many little tricks this year, especially about how to organise and motivate myself to do school work.
This weekend is all SQ (Samhain Festival FTW!) and homework, but as of next Tuesday? I’ll be back at WB with a VENGEANCE. I’ll also be revealing a new website design, and adding at least one new page to SQ’s manual everyday. I’m excited about the time off, but as much as I joke about sleeping and lazing around doing nothing, I’m actually looking forward to doing what I want to do.
Right now, though, it’s back to cleaning, homework, and Universal Soldier.
I win at multi-tasking.
