Journal Day Two

Journal Day Two

Okay, so I knocked some stuff off the list yesterday. Finished the final exam for my A+P class, got one of the short papers written for A+P, and didn’t get a rewrite on one of my juxtaposition themes for Eng 162. Still a lot left to do, but the mountain isn’t quite as intimidating as it was yesterday. My biggest hurdle right now is coming up with one more thing to write for week 15 in 162. Now technically I can get the A still, as it would be the only one I’ve missed, but the overachiever in mw can’t reconcile not completely finishing something. So while the overachiever in me wrestles for a topic, the dreamer in me can think of much better things to do. I had my relaxing night at home last night so what to do tonight? Christmas lights, that’s it I want to look at Christmas lights. I want to get in my car, where I have already found a station that plays 24 hour Christmas music, and just ride gazing at all the Christmas decorations. I want to see the beautiful houses, the tacky houses, and even the so-so houses. I just want to absorb the beauty of lights and make my Christmas spirit soar. Of course, I’m starting to wonder if this could be the theme for my last 162 essay, what I should be doing and what I’d really like to be doing. Now that is a definite juxtaposition.
