The Greek exam this morning proceeded with relative smoothness, in consideration of the fact that I only clocked approximately six hours studying for it. I believe, in retrospect, that I misdeclined a certain noun and mistranslated a certain verb, but otherwise, I knew what I was doing.
That surmounted, I must concentrate this weekend on four massive projects:
an ancient gender reading response paper over Plato's The SymposiumThe ancient gender paper, specifically, concerns male-male relations in Greece. I spent the early evening reading The Symposium, and shall continue that course after vacating this computer cubicle for relocation to either a study cubicle upstairs or the lounge at my dorm. Optimally, I would write a draft of the paper before bedtime, edit it tomorrow morning, and print it out before I begin the work day at noon.
eine deutsche Prufung am Montag
a philosophy paper about determinism
a German culture project about university studies in Germany
After work, I should study for the German exam. Sunday morning I should study for the exam and compile questions to ask Eike et alia about studying in Germany. Sunday afternoon, before the work day begins at three, I must also read the philosophy reading for which I must later write a philosophy writing (it is due am Mittwoch).
I've done a better job suppressing the stress the past couple of weeks. I can foreseeably accomplish this list.
