Things fall apart

Clearly, I need to write in this more. There isn't a reason why I don't (I don't think being lazy is a good enough reason). Hopefully, March will be an awesome month filled with productivity and maybe a job? Last week, I realized that I have spent the past two months feeling sorry for myself as a result of things not falling into place as I expected/planned. Life post slump will hopefully include the following:

1. Loan(s) to pay for France (This a must). Hopefully, Friday will be the day.
2. Write my French thesis. I've read the book once and seen the movie twice. I should definitely make a schedule so that I can be more productive. I also need to read the novel at least two more times.
3. Read as much as I can. I'm hoping to read Purple Hibiscus, Triste Trophiques, Life of Pi, The Blues Eye, The Audacity of Hope, Dreams of my Father, The Poor Christ of Boomba, Notebook on the Return to the Native Land, Nowhere in Africa, Love in the Time of Cholera, The Little Prince, Antériorité Des Civilisations Nègres, Male Daughters, Female Husbands, Gender and Sex in an African Society, Infidel, The Cairo Trilogy, L'Amour, La Fantasia, Life and Times of Michael K, Ghana: The Autobiography of Kwame Nkrumah, Citizens and Subject: Contemporary Africa and the legacy of late colonialism, La Grève des bàttu ou les déchets humains, and No Future Without Forgiveness. Si se peude!
4. Try to figure out what I'm doing after graduation (internship, work, moving, etc.).
5. Make empanada's (I've wanted to make them since last month).
6. Go to the Museum of Contemporary Art; continue to be more cultured. (I sound like an NYU hipster).
7. Try to find forgiveness in my heart and move on.
8. Figure out French grammar i.e. memorize all these tenses and modes. (BOOOOOOOO)
9. Start researching my independent study. (This should be at the top of the list)
10. Start sending CNR emails since they like fucking with me!

I'm going to go read now...
