Oh my darlings, I am cracking up. I have managed to read almost my entire stats book this morning (which should reflect equally on my reading speed and my stats book), and I figure that plus the cheat sheet we're allowed, carefully populated, should be good enough to get me through. Now all I've got is five papers of varying degrees of difficulty to write (and of course, I forgot to grab my student ID so couldn't take the books out of the library for them, arg.) Then I went and bought a lot of fruit and veg and yogurt, because what better time than the week before Christmas to start a diet, right? I did get half an hour on the elliptical this morning before I started hacking up crap, which was a nice change. Hopefully 35 minutes tomorrow...

Oh and also, I have bought my tickets (and, thankfully, received notification that Liv's passport is on its way!) I'll be in the UK from 12/27 to 1/5, and will have at least a couple days London-wards if you would like to meet up.

And furthermore, Max has discovered a new hobby - picture straightening! He's driving me insane, seriously.

work to do

Internship paper (12-15 pages): in progress
Statistics final (tomorrow 4 to 6) and associated studying
Genocide paper (15 pages) plus reaction papers
Race relations paper (10 pages)
African development paper (... I forget, 12-15 pages)
Europe after the wall paper (10 pages)

That is quite a lot of work to do in the next three days :( Luckily the internship paper is pretty brainless, and I'm six pages in already. I'm hoping to get one more paper done tonight, plus another couple hours of studying. Also, I need to go out and get an "official cheat sheet" for my stats test tomorrow. Why this couldn't just be distributed in PDF I really don't have any idea. Gah.

Would anyone who knows how to knit be willing to take on a commission for two pairs of hedgehog mittens?

So, Liv put 8 Mile on TV (or it was just on the channel after whatever she was watching, idk). However, it is an edited-for-family version of the film. I've transcribed a snippet of the dialogue for you, so that you can enjoy this as much as me.

The tortured hero, Rabbit, stands outside a shiny Cadillac in a wasted Detroit neighborhood at night. He is talking to some other people.

Rabbit: [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] your [censored] [censored] sister [censored] [censored] [censored], fool! I'm gonna [censored] [censored] your [censored] until you [censored] [censored] [censored] in the [censored] [censored]!
Other people: slam doors and drive away
Rabbit: [censored]!

And SCENE.
