Not-So-Home-Work!
My last class yesterday was Property which the prof decided would last 2.5 hrs to make up for the snow days last week. It was about 4:45pm so I read up for Contracts & Legislation & decided to take my Constitutional law & Property books to read at home. Got home about 7pm, ate dinner while watching t.v. (was supposed to be only 30 minutes). Next thing I knew, it was 10pm & I hadn't cracked open a book. Started reading for Con Law which was a massive assignment & soon it was 11pm. Decided to watch the news & after 40 minutes, was back to reading Con Law. Got done at 1am & it was nighty night. Had Property homework been done? Nope. That was ok, I'd skim over it at lunch (which is now today).
Lunch time comes & by the time I'm done eating & chatting, it's time to go for an interesting meeting (the school always invites people to come & speak so I always attend whenever I think a speaker is going to be interesting) which takes up the rest of my lunch break. I toted around my Property case book & didn't even open it. Classes resume & when Property rolls around, I am completely lost. We're talking about Covenants which are horrendous & the fact that I didn't do my reading makes this horrendousness go up exponentially. So I take a few notes every time something sounds logical hoping it'll all come together after I go back & re-read what I was supposed to have read yesterday, right after I read what is assigned for today. Realistically, not gonna happen.
An aside: During lunch, my friend had brought some sopapillas & put them on the table for us to partake. They looked delish & everyone was wolfing them down except moi. Why? Because they had been sprinkled liberally with sugar on top & I don't like very sweet things. It didn't go unnoticed for very long that I wasn't feasting on the delicacy. I should've stuck to my guns but silly me found myself reaching for one. The darn thing was so big...I had to really focus with every bite not to have a gag reflex. Can't remember the last time I had to eat something so unpalatable.
