Planning vs Execution

I had intended to take my Japanese final this morning. That didn't work so well. I sat in class for about twenty minutes, just staring at the test. Finally, I gave up, turned the paper in without even putting my name on it, and left. I worked out an opportunity to retake the test next week. We shall see if my focus is better.

I had intended to travel to Florida to be with family this weekend. There are a few problems with that. First is cost. I simply do not have the $500-800 needed to make the flight, even with the bereavement discount. Second is scheduling. I realize that there is not exactly an opportunity to schedule a sudden death in the family, but I have finals and projects that I cannot reschedule.

I feel like such an asshole.
