Busy cranky.
So far this week I have:
Done my taxes.
Finished my econ reading, quiz, and (mandatory) "voluntary" participation in the group discussion.
Planted the tulips I forgot to plant last fall.
Planted the seed trays I should have started a month ago.
Assorted misc housework.
Which is all well and good, except that I still have to:
Do my english homework.
Choose the topic, research, and write my stoopid research paper (another 10 pager, multiple sources, MLA, blah blah).
Do this week's math problems.
Do the additional math handout of problems.
Study like hell for Monday's cumulative math test.
Design the flyer for our May concert.
Finish fixing the arrangement for the cello group.
By Saturday.
I really, really just want a nap.
Smashed into a brick wall when we started logarithmic functions. Maybe it's because I've never seen them before, but I just don't understand them. So frustrating when everyone else in the class comments how easy this chapter is, and fully half the questions on the test are devoted to them.
I'm starting to realize that while there are benefits to online classes, they seem to involve doing more work than normal classes, with less in the way of explanation/clarification from the instructors. "Vague" doesn't even begin to describe half the assignments.
Mostly I think I'm just dispirited and ready for something new and good.
