Prof. Hitler's motto: Heil Me!
I've been fortunate to have had very few all-nighters (or near all-nighters) in my college career. Sure, I stay up until insane hours all the time, but those hours are filled with something I actually enjoy doing. (Like playing WA5. That game has stolen my soul.) All-nighters, however, are evil.
I'm about to pull one tonight in order to finish my 10 page American history paper for Prof. Hitler's class. I don't see why we have to have it turned in tomorrow. She could at least let us turn in a rough draft, but of course not. That would require her to show a degree of compassion, and that is beyond her abilities as an academic Nazi. Instead Anal Adolf is having us turn in the final draft now so she can have them graded and returned to us before the semester ends. Not by the end of finals week - by the end of classes. I don't give a crap if I ever get mine back! Just email me and tell me what my damn grade is, and I'll be happy.
Adolf is actually ending the semester early for us because she's leaving for Egypt during the final week of classes. So we need to write our research papers, get our 20 minute oral presentations ready, and have our take-home finals roughly a week earlier than necessary. She seems to forget that everyone in the class is a third or fourth year history major - which means that we're basically taking all upper division classes. 99% of upper division history classes require an insane amount of work, which we all need to finish while also completing the crap for Adolf's class. Grrr.....it pisses me off that we need to work our asses off to get everything done early just so she doesn't have to wait for her precious vacation. While the Fuhrer herself was explaining why the class was wrapping up early for the semester she said, "Just imagine me traveling down the Nile while I'm grading your take-home finals."
I thought that everyone in the room was going to band together and murder her on the spot. Instead we all just glared at her and sent evil thoughts her way.
While taking a break from Paper of Doom #1, I happened to find a rather disturbing article on Wikipedia. This makes me fear for the future of humanity
EDIT:
Something bad has happened. Something Very, Very Bad.
I was up until 5:00 typing the paper and managed to get 8 pages done. I collapsed into bed, slept for 6 1/2 hours, then grabbed a quick shower before heading to astronomy. Upon returning from class, I sat down to write the final 2 pages. While making one of my periodic saves, the computer froze. I was irritated, but thought that I would only lose about half a page worth of stuff. "No biggie, I can just retype it." So I restarted the computer and nearly dropped dead with horror.
The paper is gone. The ENTIRE paper.
The paper that is worth 30% of my final grade. The paper that is due during class today. The paper that I'm supposed to hand to my professor this very afternoon. The paper that is supposed to be finished when I leave for class in 45 minutes. The same paper that I lost the outline for last week.
Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. *dies*
