Third week of this semester: Sick with a cold. Stuck inside while a blizzard accumulated outside.
End of third week, and for some time afterward: Depressed. Big time.
Fourth, fifth, sixth weeks and so on: Just kind of bumbling along.
A few weeks ago or so: "What?! Where did all this work come from?!"
Last week: "I'm so behind, I'm so behind, I'm so behind." All but hyperventilating. Cried twice.
This week: Blinders on. Ignoring others' accomplishments, trying to focus on why I came here in the first place.
Right now: Tapping my fingers (lots to do, just hard to focus on school, school, all the time school). Blogging to avoid typing the draft I'm supposed to be writing. Did I mention it's Friday night?
Tomorrow: Meeting with research group for who knows how many hours.
And the beat goes on. Done around May 13th! I think! Then back to the classroom May 24th! [Big fat smirk!] At least I don't have class on the 23rd, my B-day....
Did everyone catch that? Mark the calendars?
May 23rd....
