I have two hours to go before my Law of Contracts midterm and instead of studying I am skylarking* in the Antarctic collection.
My usual table is occupied so I wedged myself in a corner of the room between Cabinets 3 and 4 of the Antarctic Map Collection.
I am sitting on the floor and using a chair as my desk.
I am also noticing a repetitive theme in Antarctic photography which seems to be a whole lot of great white expanse with a man-made structure in the background and a loosely assembled group of penguins in the foreground.
If I could shake up that photo composition I could probably set the world of Antarctic photography on fire. Maybe the National Science Foundation would give me a grant to go down there and put the man-made structures in the foreground with a barely-noticeable cabal of Chinstrap penguins in the background.
But is the world ready for that sort of thing?
More importantly, do I actually want to pass my midterm or keep sabotaging myself by not reviewing my study materials?
*I recognize that not everyone served in the military and knows what "skylarking" is. It's when you are looking all around you instead of paying attention to the job at hand.
