Ugh, is this semester over?

I just finished writing a real steamer of a paper. It’s complete crap and my teacher’s going to know it is. All I can really gather from the paper was that I managed to read three books on varying degrees of Arabian and Middle Eastern politics and their formation in the post-colonial period and how Islam got to where it is today, politically…for the most part. Sure, I missed out on specifics about the Israeli/Palestinian conflicts (not really the topic of the paper) or intricacies of Wahhabiyya but still, I managed to eek out 7 pages of crap in an effort to not kill my grades. Oh well, one B won’t kill me.

Now I have to find an animal and map its cladogram back to the last known human concestor.
