Reconstruction? That's what my essay needs

So my Reconstruction paper sucks major monkey balls. I mean like hugenormous monkey balls the size of Atlanta. I've edited it twice (actually three times, if I think about it), and it's not much better. I feel like my support for my thesis is so truncated, but I cannot help it that much. I managed to get it down to 7 pages, which is just one over the limit, but I still have to go into that damn thing and toss out some more extraneous info, then I have to go into it and add my citations and quotes. That should knock me back up to 8 pages, but that's a lot better than before. I'm too tired to do all of that tonight, so I'll do it tomorrow.

I've already decided that I'm probably not going to go to Cell Bio tomorrow, because people will just complain about the test. However, if I can get a lot of this quote and other stuff done tomorrow morning and before cell, then I'll probably go. I cannot skip ecology for the tea of China, and in AEH we should be getting our Final exam review stuff, so I want to get that. I may leave a little early to work on the essay and just not go to OChem. I dunno. I'll wing it as I go.

I'm having another scheduling catastrophe, of course, because it's me. I decided to dump the physics minor, because I have no use for it, so I'm not going to take Calculus III or Physics III. That gives me three more free credit hours, but there's not much opportunity for me to take something. I have been thinking about dumping critical thinking and taking a third lanugage, but I just don't know. This summer, I will be getting rid of my stupid Humanities requirement though, which gives me IMMENSE pleasure. Actually, after this semester, based on my four majors and one minor, I will only have like 27 hours left that I have to take, so I think I'll probably shoot for graduation next fall so that I can work throughout the Spring (maybe do some more independent study) and save some money.

I am freaking exhausted, so I'm going to bed.

If only my Reconstruction essay could quote itself and cite itself.
