Now, you guys know I don't get pissed off that much, but something happened early this morning that really pissed me off.
I have been swamped with school work for about a week. I've spent about 40 hours in the library this week, writing papers, doing research, meeting with groups, etc. The more I complete, the more other assignments pile up on me.
I was planning on going home for Easter this weekend for two reasons, (1) to see my family, whom I haven't seen in a while, and (2) to see this girl that I have a crush on, but goes to school 360 miles away.
As I am examining my syllabus, I realize I am going to need to complete this one particular paper on Wednesday night, hand it in Thursday, and leave in the afternoon after classes. Well, when I speak to my prof in class on Wed, he tells me my topic is not going to work, and I need to adjust it. Due date Friday.
Wednesday night, I revamp my research, and try to write it all night, so I can travel home on Thurs. I fall asleep, not able to finish it (and actually, didn't get a lot done...). So I call home, tell my family I'm not going to be able to see them, I'm not going to be able to see my grandma, who probably doesn't have much time left, so she's back to smoking because she doesn't care anymore, or my grandpa, who the last time I saw him thought my name was "Josh" and that I was the nurse.
I'm up all night writing that paper last night, and right before I finish, I decided to check my mail. My prof, who the day before had told me the due date is Friday at noon, no exceptions, emailed me to let me know he made an exception, the paper is now due monday. He did this at about 6 AM friday morning.
EDIT: So what am I going to do about it? I'm going to get fucking hammered tonight. I mean, obliterated. And with any luck, I'm going to wander into a WTF.COM chat room. So tune in tonight to see me wasted and pissed off, and probably cursing every thing in existence. 'Till then!
