I have the same kind of problem with tons of writing this semester. Two large essays for one class, 7 papers/presentations in another, and two separate papers in two other classes.

It's hell on the nerves. But it also means that much closer to done! Whee!

Yes, I've got two term papers, a mid-term paper, 6 mini-philo papers, an oral presentation, a business 'term project', and that's just for like two of my classes.

Where as last semester I had no papers.

Maybe it's the subject but the guy who taught basic philosophy here at IU all those years ago was a total jerk, too. Refered to our class as "Baby Logic," and I think most of us wanted to kill him. He was awful and totally rude most of the time. He made it clear he felt his talents were being wasted on us.

Why are they like that? It's so infuriating.

You know, come to think of it, the guy who taught us religion in high school (who had a doctorate in Philosophy) was kinda like that too.

Although, he was also pretty wiggy. He seemed like he was high most of the time. We used to tally the number of times he said "ambigious" in each class period. It was always like, twenty or thirty times. Nobody understood a word he said. I think he must have been ADD or something. The weirdest thing was that he was actually kind of hot.
