It’s almost Easter…

and I am staying put in Athens for it. I was going to go to Crete, then Corfu, then got lazy. Also, I imagine travelling out of Athens during the Easter holiday would be a bitch. I will definitely check out services over Easter though.

And now, another list.

1. I only have one more dive to go to get my certification. Too bad it’s the deep dive. Which I still have issues about, apparently, as last week the familiar feeling of a cold hand squeezing my insides came over me as we descended into the big blue. But I still need to work on my compass navigation skills, because they are iffy.

2. I am so fucked for my Orthodox paper. Let’s just say I am way in over my head and should have started research sooner so I could have been more thorough. Zizioulas is incredibly complex and requires more than the cursory glance I am used to giving my research material. Hm. Perhaps this means I should improve my research methods.

3. On the other hand, Honors is looking up. I’ve narrowed down my choices to a few, and aside from talking it over with my advisor and making a list of secondary sources and whatnot, I am well on my way to a proper proposal.

4. Next semester’s schedule looks like this:

Of course, I am ignoring the fact that I am at the moment signed up for 300-Level Greek which happens from 1900-2200 on Wednesday nights. That alone is cause enough for me not to take it. The fact that it is Plato’s Symposium is another.

5. The days keep getting longer, I keep getting more exhausted, yet I am not actually accomplishing anything. It’s not a good feeling. I blame the muggy weather. It sucks all the energy out of me. But I should probably stop complaining. I am still in Greece, after all. But not for much longer. Holy shit! I leave in three weeks!
