The Aforementioned Crucial Academic Responsibilities

I'm telling myself that enumerating and elaborating these will help me wake up, thus allowing me to actually get cracking on a morning when I want nothing more than to lie in bed and stare mindlessly at country music videos. Since I don't even *like* country music videos, as a general rule, it would be nice to get out of my current mindset.
( After writing these, I suspect I'm the only one who'll truly find them interesting. And there are many of them. )

Looking at the relative amounts of work I have to do from now until the 24th, and from the 24th until the 16th, it's pretty clear that my professors all had the same "brilliant" idea: get everything out of the way as quickly as possible in order to avoid a grading glut that would postpone their summer vacations.
I'm very pleased that there are only 5 weeks and a day left in my B. Sc. coursework. I don't plan on ever taking a class for credit again, though that could change I suppose. I'm thoroughly looking forward to returning to the real world, especially since the job I've had for the last three years has gradually become a vocation. I miss doing it full-time.

In other news, I correctly guessed which quotes belonged to Aleister Crowley in every single instance offered me. I'm sort of surprised by that, since I've never actually read any of his books; on the other hand I did read a really good biography of the man. I don't really LIKE Crowley, insofar as I even have an opinion about a dead person whose books I haven't read. I think he was an immature and callous wretch, in a lot of ways. On the other hand, he certainly is interesting, which is something I appreciate in a person.
