my_window_seatLast week's mini-mental-meltdown couldn't really have been more poorly timed, as I'm now overwhelmed, not just with a crushing load of time-sensitive homework due in the next two weeks on varying days, but with the realization that, once again, I'm floundering with a foreign language (that effing Spanish class). My trouble with associations - not just academically, but as part of me own personal messed-up-ed-ness, is really kicking my ass when it comes to making the connections between just basic parts of speech in a dialect so - well, foreign to me.
But right now, it's a damned paper of Voltaire and two reading assignments for WC-I & II - all due on Wednesday - that are currently frying my circuits. I got my math homework for tomorrow done over the weekend - hooray for that - but I know that tomorrow afternoon will entail the usual 2-3 hours of post-class homework outside my teacher's office before I can go home and finish what I'm not able to get done tonight - and the when the frick am I going to make flash cards for effing Spanish on top of all that? I still can't believe we're already in the 6th week and I still can't understand the difference between pronouns and subjects and now the conjugation of verbs added in tonight for the daily damn quizzes that start this Wednesday - plus the entire lab and workbook for chapter 2 due next Wednesday for the TEST on that same day -
I really, really REALLY fucked up here, folks.
I'm going to try to remember - and find some way to find the TIME - to get to the advisory office sometime this week to find out if taking Spanish as Pass/Fail will screw up my credits or financial aid or any other damn thing. I think it's very likely that I'm not even going to manage to pass - but if I do, it's not going to be with anything like an A, and though I know a GPA is really a stupid thing to be concerned about, there's no point in screwing it up if I don't have to. What I'm not sure about is if it screws up my eligibility for financial aid next semester - especially if I don't pass it.
Can't stay here to ponder this further - am only on paragraph 4 of this bloody paper and still have pages more to write, with a slew of text-specific effing quotations to weave in along the way.
Hating effing life like you wouldn't believe at the moment.
[EDIT: I CANNOT fail this fucking Spanish class if I want to hang onto my scholarship chances. FUCK.]
