Presents and paper and ribbons, oh my!

I love Christmas. Always have, always will. Baking Christmas cookies, buying presents, listening to Christmas music, seeing the lights being put up... anything to do with Christmas, you name it, I probably love it. Except for one thing.

Wrapping presents.

I suck at it. Even though I shamelessly project my own interests onto other people and buy books and DVD's for everyone, I cannot for the life of me wrap a present properly. Yeah, that's right. I can't even wrap square/rectangular things. How talentless is that?

Doomsday yet again

So... do you think the person grading my exam would be amused if I explained to him or her, using actual psychological research on motivation, why I have been thoroughly unmotivated to study, and therefore know diddly squat about motivational psychology?

No?

Oh well. I suppose that an essay like that might indicate that I have, in fact, studied, which would make my point moot and I'll fail. But in a much more interesting way than if I just bullshitted my way through the exam.

Meh.
