Okay, I’m going to finish a translation project this morning. No other option.

8:32 am start
9:52 am finished.

Well this is pretty anti-climax.

I have FOOD, yet am too lazy to EAT it. Can’t understand myself. I’ve been given so much junk food lately I lost appetite for wholesome food or something :(.

11:12 am and am currently not doing anything. Not sure why. Because there are so many that I need to do.

Okay:
-Delegation
-The job post
-The Syllabus
-Errands

Good, finally ate. Man. 5 minutes of reading for the dissertation. I think I’ll only begin to read for comps again once I am done with law school application.

Today should be errands day. Maybe I should need to get all of it done:
-Go to the department to pick up my key forms (and if possible get the keys from maintenance)
-Go get my diploma
-Go to HR (urrrrrrrrggggg)
-Go to Student Affairs to get a new ID

Shower first then do all of that before 5 PM? Yeah I guess so.

1:12 pm. Turn pomodoro on. I can’t keep lying here like this.
4:11 pm. I’m excited! I got all the errands done. They never take too long, these jobs that require me to get out and about.

Maybe I need a time of the day for email.

So what is the partner that I dream of having? I like him sweet and gentle and respectful.

Anyway.
-Finish the book order form
-10 minutes Teaching prep– general syllabus
-20 minutes Teaching prep– first week (lectures, readings, Blackboard)
-5 minutes Law school PS
-5 minutes Translation project
-10 minutes The job post
(-book review too, sigh)

I’m so dead. There is no way I’m going to survive this one.

Alright. Let’s just get to it. Please.

Nah, I’ll just to the most important things then, alternate them.
-Teaching prep first week
-

I’m giving up on indeed.com now. Annoying. Deceptive.

You know how we make fun of old professors who don’t know how to do technology? … WELL ACTUALLY, setting up Blackboard on the faculty’s side is SO CONFUSING. I have no idea, literally no idea, what I’m doing.
