Spot the Stress and the Eustress
May. 8th, 2008 08:44 pmToday I wrote the psychology unit test. I'd heard that it was the hardest exam in the school, so I really prepared for it. I think I did well. The essay question probably won't be stunning, as I was really rushed for time when I wrote it, but I think I did well on the rest of it. Here's to hoping this isn't hubris.
In The Other Class I presented a project. The assignment was to create a cookbook for a certain stage of the life cycle (for us it was middle-aged adults) and prepare a meal for the class to try. It was a group project, and this ( did not go well. )
When not studying for the psych test, I took the time to finally read Sailor Nothing. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I'd been feeling really depressed when I started reading it, but I'm fine now (I'm aware that I probably should have become more emo, but I can definitely see how it cheered me up too). It's well written. The author went all-out trying all sorts of different styles, and I think, for the most part, they worked.
My attraction to it probably has a lot to do with the fact that I love tearing down my fantasies. I like taking the idealistic things I've wished for, and exploring what it would be like if stuff like that really happened. Sailor Nothing does that perfectly.
