Oh, help. [see attached Maria]
Jan. 29th, 2008 10:21 pm( Obligatory blogging about community service )
My service learning class is seriously taking over my life. I woke up this morning to go to a meeting with the coorinator to confirm my placement in a class, and then ended up schlepping all the way to Park Street to go to a self-help meeting for Overeaters Anonymous because I needed to attend a meeting so I could write a paper...for that same class. It was very, very awkward. But everyone was friendly and kind to me, and I even got invited back because I'm not sure they all believed that I was really a student there doing observation. Oh well. I'm just sooo glad that's over, it was hanging over my head ever since we were told we'd have to do it. ...And then when I got back to campus, I had to go tutor at the Y. To put in my service hours for that class!
There's also sooo many more projects for that class, I can't even keep them all in my head. I don't know how I ever thought that it was going to be an easy course. I'm getting my ass handed to me on a plate.
I also suddenly have a ton of work to do for cinema class too, because the professor decided he wanted us to answer questions on textbook readings he assigned a week and a half ago. Okay. I love this guy *dearly*, he's one of the best professors I've had so far and he makes that class so fun, but seriously? If you want people to do an assignment with a reading, then provide it beforehand or at least along with the reading, such that I don't already discount the reading as completed and then receive an unpleasant surprise.
...I'm also kind of pissy, since I have 6-9 pages of essay due Monday for that class on TOP of all the random stuff he just gave us...and I am so totally screwed.
I also am totally worn down and sick. How am I going to get all this done and still apply to universities? I really don't know. Mostly I'm just hoping that I have enough time for sleep tonight that I am actually capable of getting out of bed in the morning.
