I have to say, I’m feeling pretty pleased with myself right now. Yesterday morning before our workshop began, I spent a couple of hours working with a classmate on our early-modern handwriting assignment, then I spent the remainder of yesterday doing workshop stuff, including a raucous night out with a bunch of fun people. I came back to my room late and inebriated, but I was out the door at 7:15 this morning for a full twelve hours of workshop activity, then came back and spent a couple more hours completing and submitting my handwriting assignment, though I could have left it until later. Not only that, but I’ve gotten a lot of good feedback on my thesis ideas and work and, best of all, my alarm won’t go off for nine more hours.
