Why?
Today I had what felt like the longest day ever. I had class from 12-1:30, work from about 2:15-5:30 then other work videotaping an event for work from 5:45-8:30. Then I came home, ate dinner and did homework. I was doing homework until 12:30 and I am just now sitting down to relax for a bit and its 1AM. Todays happenings is what triggered me feeling the need to post something, but I have had a lot going on lately.
I have been pretty stressed out with a lot of school things that keep getting piled up on my plate plus a bunch of other "social" engagements that I've committed to before the end of the semester. First of all, why is it that professors feel the need to assign so much at the end of the semester when we already have finals to worry about?
I have a presentation(due next Wednesday) and paper due a week later in my film studies class on a certain directors style. I have to read a 250 page book and write a 5 page book report on a book that I haven't started yet because I haven't had time and the teacher is so unreliable that I never trust her syllabus so I was waiting for her to confirm that we had to do it in my hip hop culture class. Finally, I have a refutation speech on May 7th in my speech class. Then I have finals starting May 17th. So, thats all my school related stuff.
As far as my social engagements go I have Shannon's birthday party in Santa Cruz this weekend. I have a funeral/memorial service to go to May 7th/8th and I have my aunts wedding shower May 16th. So all of that pretty much limits the time I have to work on all my school stuff and on top of all that I am still working 20 hours a week.
Argh, I hate being stressed out. It makes me really cranky and bitchy and I hate feeling like that. Lets just say that I'll be really glad once the semester is over.
I should also say that although it may sound like I don't want to do some of my social engagements on the weekends thats not the case. I'm just annoyed at the timing of it all.
Thanks for listening/reading to my crazy rant.
