End of the Semester

I haven't written here in a long time, and I would use the excuse that I'm keeping track of my year somewhere else, but lying in print is worse than lying to yourself. So. . . updates: The semester is almost over, it ends at the end of next week and then it's "final's" time. I only have one final and I'm a little "meh" on it. I have some papers to write, which is a little stressful. I know, I know, but I had all semester to write them, but where's the fun in that? Tomorrow I'm giving a presentation tomorrow so I can receive a grade in my German course. Frau B. told us that if we need a grade, that we needed to do a presentation. I asked which topic we had to do (considering the other ones that did presentations were all culturally related to their home countries), and she said it was open topic. That's some dangerous ground there. Open topic? Ah, my specialty. So I devised a plan, I made a terrific powerpoint and now I'm working on a video. I am presenting tomorrow, in German in front of a bunch of people who think I'm awesome and hilarious, on the Sims3. I have a brief history of the evolution starting back in 1989 with the release of SimCity by creater Will Wright. Amazing to look at a screen shot of the original SimCity compared to that of a Sims3 World and to see the vast difference and the leaps and bounds that technology has made over the past 22 years. Powerpoint is finished. It is now 12:26 AM Friday morning, the day of my presentation and I'm still struggling to prepare a video to go along with my presentation. It's not mandatory, and it would go fine without it, but this is a burp from my days as a 10th grade genius who had more subjects in school at any given moment than friends. I generally need some type of limits, otherwise I put in way too much work and effort. This is kind of fun, but the endeavor is slightly stressful. I ought to get back to work, and then I'll try to post the video once I get it all finished and polished.
