Members willsellout Posted October 14, 2008 Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 So I signed up to take a world history class to get back into the swing of things. I took an advanced course, basically shoving 4 months of school in 2 months. Well....my tuition assistance got held up because it's the beginning if the fiscal year which meant I didn't get my books shipped on time, which means I didn't get my book until today, which means I'm 1 week and 3 assignments behind with 2 more assignments due by next Sunday. So I have 120 pages of reading, a 300 word essay, and about 150 historical word definitions to complete:thu:. Couple this with my darling daughter being satan and I am in-the-{censored}. Anyone else got more than they can handle right now? Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members willsellout Posted October 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 i'm with you brutha. been in the {censored} for about a month now. i need a vacation something fierce.... Luckily I have a flexible boss, who basically said I could work on my school stuff for the next week without bugging me, and I have tylenol for the kid, and beer for me. Otherwise I'd be hanging myself with my E string. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Captain Fathead Posted October 14, 2008 Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 Grad school. I've got midterms, and I TA two classes, one of which is the most demanding production course the University offers. I'm also beginning production on another film project (which I'll have to DP along with play the lead). I can't remember the last time I've had less than a 14 hr day. Wooooooo...

Members georgestrings Posted October 14, 2008 Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yeah, things are a bit hectic for me right now, too - between band/sound stuff, the puppy, my club starting back up, necessary work on my truck, and hunting season - besides normal everyday life - it's been a bit "brisk"... Hopefully, you'll manage to juggle everything well enough 'til things slow down a bit - best of luck, Dan... - georgestrings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Thunderbroom Posted October 14, 2008 Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 Anyone else got more than they can handle right now? As much as I share with you folks, my family is going through some heavy stuff right now that I'm not sharing right now. Couple that with graduate school, the band, more "work" than I should be handling, and the regular adult/family responsibilities and yeah...I've got more than I can handle. But I keep on.

Anyone else got more than they can handle right now? Dan 25 page paper due on Thursday with 25 sources (20 pages each). Quiz tomorrow in Spanish. Mid-term on Wednesday, and Thursday. I have no money because the {censored}ing government won't process my wife's immigration application and she supports me while in school. I can't work while all of this crap is going on at school and still study. To beat that, I'm having this huge crisis of what the hell I'm gonna do after school with a degree in Political Science. May not beat you mang, but it isn't fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The Insomniac Posted October 14, 2008 Members Share Posted October 14, 2008 oh yea - and I can't even glance at a non approved website at my new job - financial service stuff - and any non approved website (checked by IT) is grounds for immediate dismissal. I can't even have a active cell phone in the building. If I bring one in, it must be turned off and locked in my desk drawer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
