now i just hope i dont flunk my classes because of it.

I had 4 papers due, 3 presentations, 2 homeworks all this week. First 2 papers went pretty okay, 3rd one, my senior thesis, i got it done but turned it in WAY late. The 4th, i had to resubmit, the computer crashed while printing/sending homework to the prof via email.

Chronology of my senior thesis... 40 pages of shaZam!!
First time word crashed while reformatting pages, i tried moving a line up, and the damn thing started repagination, and next thing i know it froze. It did this 3 times, finally got that fixed... and then
computer crashed when printing
then because teh computer crashed, the file got corrupted.
It looked fine on my PC, but when i took it to school to print (since the print stopped half way and was taking too long) it turns out its really got f%&ked.

Then my sister had a copy (since i sent her one) and she sent it back to me. So i had to copy and paste the whole thing back into a new document and redo teh whole thing and formatting and pictures and all.. finally got done 6 hrs later after due time. Ofcourse i couldnt turn it in, cause the damn building was closed.. so i turned it in this morning at 9.

Now i dont know if the prof called me at 8:30am .. it was from a private number, but its quite possible she called. In anycase, i turned it in, its under her door.. I wonder how many points i get docked for this computer issue. Hope she gets it today.. i hope she didnt already stop by her office.. grrr she never responds to her emails.

At least you're done! Dead week whupped my ass, as in my friend got me sick, and I have yet to accomplish any REAL studying. I've got a 10 page paper due monday (haven't started), and 3 finals. Thought I had one final on Monday, one on Tuesday, and one on Wednesday. Then they changed the schedule. I now have one on Monday and two on Tuesday. I'm gonna get my ass handed to me... oh well, that's life! Afterwards, I get almost a whole month to relax!

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

Atleast ya'll get a dead week! Because of Katrina they moved our schedule back a week our last day of class is the 13th and our last final is on the 19th. A final on X-mas week is damn wrong! We dont normally get a dead week one way or another.
