It's a dull old line, but it couldn't be more true for me right now: I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. My essay grading for the class I teach and essay writing for all the classes I'm taking happened to fall due this same week, the week before I take the GREs (because my old scores expired, what joy). It would be a lot of work to handle

*hugs*

Grading is horrible. And writing essays is not that much better. Best of luck.

(Just out of curiosity, why do you have to take the GREs again?)

[valancy_s]

Thanks for the sympathy! Your icon sums it up just right.

I'm in an MA program, applying this fall to go on for the PhD.

Ah--that makes sense, if I'd just *thought* for a second! Well, best of luck with that too--at least you know what to expect from the GREs?

[valancy_s]

I expect to get my ass kicked by the math section - thank God the schools won't care as much about that!

[tempestsarekind]

Oh, I totally bombed the math section--I didn't do too badly on the practice exams, when I could skip around and do the questions I knew how to do, but on the actual computer-based exam... *shudder* And yet, here I am. :)
