Just kill me now...

So I went in to Brinks's office hours today, thinking I'd be a good student and ask her for help on my paper, make sure I was going in the right direction, that sort of thing.  BAD CHOICE.  She pretty much shot down all my ideas, and I'm going to have to rewrite all five of the pages I've already done.  I wasted all of last night writing them, in other words.

As a result, I emailed Kirkland and asked for an extension on my history paper because I really just don't think I'll be able to write it by tomorrow.  At least, not with any semblance of coherency.  That was at 3.  It's now 7:30, and I've not gotten a response, and I'm not thinking I will (or at least not in the near future) so I'm going to have to come up with something that I can turn in tomorrow in case he doesn't give me the extension, and I'll probably get a dismal grade for it which will in turn give me a low grade for the class because I'm certainly not getting much in the way of participation points, and that panel thing is going to be sucktastic.  So I suppose I can't pick on Elyse for getting a B in his class because I'll probably wind up with the same grade, just because I didn't have the damn time to do any better.  I hate this.  I would LOVE to actually learn something in one of my classes, but I can't because I spend so much of my time doing busy work for all my other classes.  What kind of messed up educational system do we have in this country, anyway?  Seriously!  This is ridiculous!  I can't learn because I'm too busy doing HOMEWORK! THAT'S LAME!

One word:

Breathe.

It just might help.

As for not learning anything due to busy work - that is why I am a slacker. I actually learn stuff because I work on very little.

I won't bother you with any more to read so that you can get back to the work which is causing you so much unrest.
Thanks Nick. :) I did wind up getting the extension from Kirkland, thank God, which mean I could focus on the North and South paper... which I stayed up until 3:30 in the morning to finish.

And now I have to do laundry and pack before I go to work, so I'll head out.
