I have a huge project due Wednesday. A lines drawing, a construction drawing, and a scantling list. The scantling list (not finished) is 36 pages. I have restarted my lines drawing THREE times and am not finished yet. I can't begin the construction drawing until the lines drawing is done.
I'm just praying for either an extension, or a kindly lightning bolt to put me out of my misery.
I have a presentation Wednesday too, I finished that already but I'm still working on the handout.
Huge paper due December 6.
Not sure when my last exam is; first week in December I think.
Two big presentations in the first week of December as well.
I'm working 20 hours a week.
And I still need to eat, sleep, shower, keep my apartment reasonably clean and bug-free.
Last opera night of the semester was Friday, had a date last night and one of the professors is having a lunch in half an hour. I'm calling it my mental health time. After getting bronchitis 3 times in 2.5 years in Cali I know better than to chain myself to my desk 24/7. I can't get a PhD if my body has gone to wrack and ruin.
Bureaucratic grunge is stopping me from registering for classes next semester. I've sent emails about it, but it's ticking me off. I have more than enough to deal with without shenanigans like that.
I'm so tired. I felt guilty about sleeping in until 8:30 am yesterday and today. It's the weekend...other people are going on picnics, or to museums, or just lying on the couch watching football and drinking beer. I'm running errands, doing homework, juggling household demands :coughvacuumingandlaundrycough: with my intense need to be on campus drafting (which I'll be doing after lunch today).
Growing up sucks.
