Paper due, don't care
Welcome back to my monthly blog posting. That is about as frequent as I seem to be able to keep.
Today I have a paper due for my Tech Composition class. It is a resume and cover letter. I wrote up about 1/2 of the resume last night and then felt that I did not want to do any more of it. I expected to feel anxious about not having done the assignment, but I don't. It is rather strange for me and not what I was expecting to feel. It is somewhat liberating I guess. I feel like avoiding class today and see the fact that I don't have the assignment done as an excuse as to why it is ok. As long as the roads are not real bad, I am determined to go to class anyway. I think it would be good to go to class and own the fact that I don't have the assignment done.
Seeing as the paper is due today, and I guess it would take me at least 1 day of research to find a job or company to write the cover letter to, it looks like I will be showing up at class without my assignment done. I feel like sort of a rebel. Maybe I will finish the assignment and turn it in on the last day of class for partial credit or maybe I won't. I just don't really care much either way. I should be getting a B in the class if I don't and I just don't feel the desire to strive for that A.
I recently started taking Melatonin as a sleep aid. I have noticed much more brain activity when I am asleep. I notice that I still wake up a bit during the night, but I seem to do it in a dream like state that doesn't seem to disrupt my sleep as much. I have noticed myself much calmer lately, but I am not sure if it is because of the quality or quantity of the sleep I have been getting lately. I started getting an extra hour or two. Since taking the Melatonin I feel like going to sleep is something that I look forward to as opposed to something that I tried to avoid as much as I could.
