The heat is on (small pun intended)
Nov. 16th, 2007 06:49 amHi, guys.
Just a quick update to say I'm still alive. Feel like I've said this before, a couple of times maybe. Oh wait, I have.
Anyway. Not dead, just stressed, slammed with schoolwork...
I have a 5+ research/opinion paper due next Wednesday. I have about two pages done, okay, page and 3/4ths, whatever, and the rest of it is kind of floating around in my head waiting to get sorted out and put down on paper.
I'd have started a lot sooner- been done a lot sooner, too, but my teacher has seen fit to give us various 1-2 or 2-3 page papers in the weeks since he assigned the biggie, and of course they were due sooner, and, well, you get the idea.
Between that and getting sick- had a sinus infection, but I'm better now, except my allergies were so bad I went back to the doc because I thought I still had the infection... so now I have more allergy meds. Too.
I need a vacation, but the one I'm getting will suck. I get a couple of days around Thanksgiving, when the whole family will be in town and we're having dinner at the grandparents' new place. The plus side is that none of us have to cook- yay old folks' home with good cooks and a dining room.
Then I drag myself through a few more weeks of school, get through finals- my teacher says he may just have us write the last short paper out by hand in class with some stuff he gives us- um, yay... and then there is the not-very-long-at-all Christmas break. I'm pretty sure I'm back in school by the 7th of January or so.
Plus, you know, Christmas. It's looking like Turkey Day is gonna be our big family gathering, but still... I'm not expecting Christmas to be light on the stress, either.
Bleh. Have to go now, need to toss the books for my global warming paper into my backpack. Interesting stuff, but I'm already thoroughly sick of it, the way I get with all my research topics about this time.
See ya when I see ya.
