Mar. 30th, 2006 04:29 pmBeen a couple days since I updated this. Mostly because I've been chained to that bloody Soc paper. You know you're a geek when you procrastinate on a paper because it's about sports and sports are boring. :p I wound up turning the factor that totally skewed my data into the entire basis of my paper, go me. I expected hockey to get a LOT more coverage than curling. It did get more, but the difference wasn't as dramatic as I expected. See, when I set out to do this project, I kinda forgot that Russ Howard is from Moncton. (I am SO getting disowned for that, incidently :p) Russ Howard, for those of you (read: most of you :p) is on the men's curling team. The paper I was using was from Moncton. There was actually a lot of curling coverage, but a lot of it was really just Russ Howard coverage. :p
I finished writing the paper around 3:30 last night, so I decided I would cite it in the morning. I think I got most of the in text citations. Trouble is, I looked at every hockey or curling article for the entire run of the Olympics. That's a LOT of articles. I decided once my works cited page hit 2 pages and I was really running short on time, I was going to print and hope she doesn't notice that I was missing a few articles. SO MANY ARTICLES. :p
Anyway, printing turned out to be a NIGHTMARE. I got a paper jam, which is tricky to fix on my computer. SO I decided it would be faster to send the paper to VIcki and print the rest on HER printer. Of course, I initially gave it to her in Wordperfect format because I'm silly like that. THen we tried to print just the pages I didn't have yet. This screwed up my page numbers, so we just printed off the whole thing. It is now 1:02. The paper is due at the beginning of class. Which starts at 1:00. :p
So I power walked to campus and got there with five minutes left in the grace period. :p
Got everything finished in the Organic lab and checked out. I also found out that I got a B+ on my lab report, so that's exciting. I lost marks on silly things I can fix in this one. :p
Now I'm sitting in the Cragg crunching numbers for Analytical. Doesn't everyone just LOVE the end of semester? :p
Oh, and a meme from

Simple, eh? :p
