My To Do List


Graduate school keeps me on my toes.  It also sucks up all of my spare time.  Downtime?  What's that?  I don't remember anymore.  The remaining three weeks of school are going to be hellish.  I have the longest to do list in history.  I've decided to share that list with you.

To Do:  School Related

  • Paper Proposal -- 2 pages
  • Analytical Paper -- 4 to 6 pages
  • Book Review --  3 pages
  • Thesis Proposal -- 4 to 6 pages
  • Feminist Theory Final Paper -- minimum 15 pages
  • Thesis Chapter -- about 25 pages 
I choose not to include my weekly reading on this list, but add in 100+ pages of unrelated academic reading and you see my time crunch!

To Do: Life Related
  
  • Grocery shopping
  • Clean house
  • Unpack more stuff
  • Pack/move the rest of my stuff
  • Deal with legal divorce related crap
  •  Meet short story deadline/submission deadlines
I also have a second chance prom to attend this weekend and numerous work related things to accomplish before my contract runs out at the end of the month. 

I like being busy. I thrive on deadlines and high pressure situations.  However, this time, I'm wishing for a reprieve.  But no worries!  I will get all of these things crossed off my list ASAP.  I'll keep you updated.
