The Insanity of Study Habits
This is how I am studying for my stats test on tuesday:
Read over some stats stuff for about an hour.
Decide to take a break. Something totally different for my head. I decide to read Hughes' Birthday Letters, as it's been a while and I kinda need it for another class, anyway. I get to a poem called "St. Boltophs" and I get to a line about "Prospero's book..." and I google Prospero and then google Sycorax, then Uriel, the Niphilim, then Ariel and end up on this blog by a woman named Ariel Gore.
Then, I keep checking the cellar.
dammit.
