+ I made day-late pi-day pie. It was Shoofly Pie, which I'd never had before and is kind of weird (it seems to be essentially molasses pie), but it's pretty good. And it is pie.
~ finals
- I want to be done with the term now.
+ I will in fact be done with the term soon.
- Analysis is hard and kind of stupid and makes me feel guilty for working on other more pleasant things because I need to work on it so much more desperately.
- I have pretty terrible work habits, especially where finals are concerned.
+ Occasionally I remember that I'm not that clear on whether he even grades the analysis work, and that makes me feel less nervous about it, in a putting-off-the-nerves-until-prelims way.
+ The topology problems were mostly nice and friendly.
- The actual topology exam is two hours earlier in the morning than I ever have to show up to school, otherwise.
+ But that leaves me with the rest of the day free to worry about analysis. Um, or finish my exam, instead of worrying.
~ No worrying tomorrow. Because I will be spending the whole day grading.
+ After Wednesday there will only be the algebra exam, which I am fond of anyway.
+ After exams, I get to go to Italy with my parents. That will be a good spring break.
+ The living room is clean for the first time in months.
+ The bathroom is clean, too, but that's less novel.
+ I got a hat! They had an Easter hat theme at the thrift store when I went to get jeans without holes in them, and I was unable to resist. The hat I got is old-fashioned and has feathers, but as it is maroon it doesn't look like it belongs to Easter.
- I kind of screwed up my arms again, and now they protest about lots but especially the computer. Probably I should get off, then.
