Feb. 18th, 2009 10:42 amI can say, completely without exaggeration, that this is the busiest week of my life. I wasn't even this busy when I was preparing for APs (...of course, I didn't really prepare very well for APs, which is why I barely got any 5s) or any single time I've studied for finals. It's ridiculous. I have no idea why everything is taking so long. It's just like... a combination of several really unlucky factors plus the fact that two of the major things this week are group projects and it's just so difficult to find a time when everyone can meet (especially the 4-person group).
Seriously, this was my day yesterday: ( My day! )
Really the things that have totally screwed with this week to make it worse than it should be are two major factors. First, Li not showing up Saturday or Sunday. We might have actually been a little further in both projects if she had shown up. Also (a subset to this factor), the fact that I didn't finish my stats lab over the weekend. I'm regretting that so much right now. The other major thing, though, is that our professor in Differential Equations has been gone these two weeks and the guy who he got to teach in his absence is a guy that apparently can't do anything we're doing. He'll set up a problem which we can do, but then it comes to the difficult intergration and he's like "Oh, I'm not good at this stuff, I can't figure it out." So then we have no practice on the difficult part of it, and we've seen no examples of it, and then on the quiz (that we have each week) we have to do it and don't know how. And he lectures on stuff that has nothing to do what we're quizzed on, and he gives us no time for questions on the homework. And the homework doesn't even have anything to do with the quizzes either! AND he set up a problem before we took our quiz Tuesday but he set it up wrong and confused us and then we had a similar problem on the quiz and I screwed it up because he confused me with what he was saying before. And we have this project due and he doesn't know how to do the problems, but our normal professor isn't returning until tomorrow, when the project is due. UGH.
Anyway, the good thing about today is that it's halfway to spring break and I'm halfway through this week. I can't wait until Friday afternoon. I can finally catch up with TV and relax for a little bit. Today is going to be another ridiculous day. I've been up since 8 (even though I don't have class until 1! Evil!) and have been finishing my German homework (because I forgot a part I had to do) and working on the stats lab (which is almost done! And very wrong in many places, but whatever!) and Li's coming over soon to work on the lab and both projects. And then class, Wind Ensemble, meeting with differential equations group, and then probably working on the stats project some more. ugh. I really hate this week.
