Arguments for and against AUTHOR CANCELLED

I just worked on the rough draft of my research paper for 4 or 5 hours. Guess what I managed to finish? Editing the outline. About half of the introduction. A tiny bit of one body paragraph. And that's all I have to show for myself. And I only have 2 more days to work on it.

"Research Paper of the Apocalypse" is an understatement now. So is "Research Paper of the Apocalypse of the Apocalypse". In fact, even...

10 print "Research Paper"
20 print " of the Apocalypse"
30 goto 20
40 end

...is an understatement, because at this rate, I'll be done by Thursday. No, not the Thursday it's due on - the one after that. Which is also two days after the Day of Frozen Pets (it gets tedious to say "the 666th day after my first 666 dream" over and over).

Speaking of the Day of Frozen Pets, today I realized that that's 100 days before my birthday. Scary...

Anyways, don't expect to see me for a LOOOOOOONG time. :(

Your reposted entry will be due in 4000 B.C. NO late papers!

Today's 206's and New Year's resolution progress (if you can call it that)

Three different 206's have shown up today:

- I was thinking about getting a snack, and I happened to look at the clock and it was 2:05 PM, so I waited until it changed to 2:06 to leave the room to get it. (Granted, it was kinda intentional, but it didn't take that long for it to change to 2:06, so I probably would've gotten my snack at 2:06 anyway.)
- I've recently made a program on my calculator that helps me decide what homework to work on first by dividing what I put as the relative difficulty of each homework assignment (with 1 being the difficulty of a math problem) by how many hours I have to work on it.* At one point, for studying for my economics test next Monday, this turned out to be 2.069800282. Even more interesting is the fact that just before I ran the program that time, I had randomly thought about what it would be like if, once I made a PrtSc Land-styled version of this userpic next PrtSc Land Day, Schrödinger's Enya commented on it.
- I'm reading Frankenstein for English class, and I read page 206 today.

Speaking of homework, I've had a LOT of it lately. :(

And now, back to your regularly scheduled pessimism: my New Year's resolutions!

←Week 3 Week 5→

Stupid things one )

Procrastination one )

*The formula is different if I'm at school, because then it'd be best to work on short assignments first so I don't have to take them home. In that case, I have it multiply instead of divide, then take the reciprocal of the result.

Ironic typos I just found in the Visual Basic textbook from two of my college computer classes

"That is, if while coping an IBSN number you miscopy a single character or transpose two adjacent characters, then the sum (*) will no longer be a multiple of 11."

No wonder the Martian year is about 666 sols long

Guess who managed to hack into his mom's computer at age 2, yet can't write an interactive Earth-Mars calendar program in Visual Basic at age 16? :(
