It's crunch time....


Well, it's that time of the quarter where we realize that we have about 2 weeks to complete all the end of term papers we were assigned weeks ago. All of my usually lovely friends, including myself, are nuts and cranky. I have decided that once the quarter is over I am going to have a kick ass party for us to all relax, before winter quarter starts us. I am making decent progress. I have 4 papers done. 1 paper needs a final edit, 2 papers need to be finished (which I am planning to do this weekend), and the last paper...well...I haven't even started it. I am kinda intimidated by it so I keep putting it off. I have been thinking about the paper a lot. It is a positionality paper, a chance for me to figure out where I stand in relationship to the theories we have been discussing so far this quarter. I am picking racial formation/identity and queer theory. We are supposed to frame the paper with the questions which form the basic tenants of our program. It's kinda complicated. I'll check back in and let you know how I am doing. For now, rest will be best! :)
