At least not with three writing-intensive classes at once. :( I'm swamped.

(And having to do fucking PEER REVIEWS for a HISTORY class doesn't help. Prof needs to overhaul his teaching style.)

2. I never took more than 13, and that place is tougher now
than it was when I was there. I feel for you.

3. Thanks.
The main problem is, a lot of major assignments (as in 7-12 pages) are dropping on me within the space of a few weeks, and they're combining with the fact that I've been having major problems with Murphy's Law all semester.

6. The big three are Fiction 1, Writing The Graphic Novel, and Medieval Politics.

I had a 12-page script for Graphic Novel (harder than you'd think, trust me) due the day after a 7-page rough draft for Med. Politics two weeks ago, had an 11-page story due yesterday for Fiction 1 (and thanks to Murphy's Law blowing my laptop's AC adapter after every electronics store in town had closed for the night, wasn't able to get it polished and printed in time for class), and today I'm having to peer review a rough draft for Med. Politics...only the author cranked it up, and instead of 7-9, I'm stuck reviewing 20 pages.

Oh, and I've got another 12-page script due next Tuesday, along with an essay exam (probably going to be about 8 pages there) for my Women in the Ancient Mediterranean class...and I still owe that prof a 4-page short paper, because I've had so much other shit to do, I haven't yet caught up to that.

Shoot me. Please.
