Im so fucking stressed I could rip my skin off!!

Posted 10-22-2008 at 12:59 PM by T-nex
God I have to finish a piece for a trainee spot that I really want...

On top of that I've been sick the past couple of days and couldn't come to school(But I asn't that stressed about it, cos we only had workshop days, where absence doesn't get registered). But ANYWAY, then I find out that we had to get our assignment for our trial exam on friday TODAY!! Not tomorrow... God... I could eat myself right now.

And the teacher sent me an email saying that he sent me the assignment and wished me luck with it. But oops. There is NO fucking assignment attached.

I'm sorry about this outburst, but I'm really close to stressing out and crying right now. Just needed to get this off my chest.

I’m stressing over work, too, and how much there is to keep on top of, and how crazily not on top of it I am. Considered blogging about it, actually. On OWF of all places.

That reminds me… I learnt yesterday that a lecture I thought was on Friday mornings and clashed with another lecture is actually on Thursday mornings and clashes with nothing. So not only have I been missing lectures because of a stupid timetable misprint, I now have lectures every single morning, and in three afternoons. That’s three times a week I have to eat lunch out, and that’s pricey unless I get up at stupid o’clock in the morning to pack a lunch. And that’s not the easiest thing, either. You have any idea how many vegan things you can put in sandwiches? There’s not much.

And I have an essay to hand in tomorrow which I only started today. I got the assignment late because I was ill when it was assigned. It’s only a practice essay that counts for nothing, but it’s the first essay I’ve written in about a year and a half, and I haven’t had the time to explore any further reading for it, so it’s going to be completely unreferenced.

In other words, you’re not the only one suffering from a high work load with a heightened hectic levels because of poor health and lacklustre efforts of admin staff. Just make sure that you’re taking enough time out to relax. It really does help with your overall productivity. And, y’know, makes you more relaxed.

Man I'm surprised at how close your situation is to mine... I think I got some sort of food poisoning(not getting into details >_<)... But It's probly because of the stuff Ive been eating lately.. Not very healthy and just quick stuff, because I've been stressed with schoolwork, and didn't wanna waste time cooking. Also I don't have alot of money either this month. My dormitory decided to steal about 100$ because there's ONE week I hadn't kept up with the cleaning schedule(cos of fucking school work)... It all goes in circles. I've come to the conclusion that life just hates me.

Anyway, if I was you I'd just eat the bread alone... Without anything if you cant find stuff to put on. I've done this before, and it really isn't THAT horrible. bread can be quite tasty!

Food poisoning beats my illness, which was actually just me hiding in bed without food for two days because I was feeling particularly bad about myself, and had just gotten a very disheartening and threatening email from my granddad, which set off an epic shame/inferiority mood swing, and I had to hide away and pretend not to exist for a few dozen hours.

Bread can be quite tasty, but only if you’re not buying cheapo bread from cheapo shops. I’d rather get the cheapo bread and invest the savings in something tasty to go with it, which has the added benefit coming with more nutritional goodies. Yes, money shortage is also affecting me, but my student loan should be coming through soon.

Moving house in 2 months, have to clean out 7 rooms full of junk, organize stuff, get financial stuff done... stay with your parents as long as you can I swear!

*Signs the stressed out paper as well*

Why not give you teacher a call so he can send the thing over?

Holy shit O.o... The teacher just responded to my mail... now... Well i guess he likes staying up too.
Oof.. Well this does relieve me a bit, and the assignment even sounds a bit fun.

I guess I'll do my best.. That's all I can do.

I know the feeling. With lessons, rehearsals, and obligatory crap for extracurriculers, Sunday is normally the only day I have where I don't have to worry about going to something. I actually took Monday off so I could catch up on my work for Biology. Luckily, most of my teachers are nice and reasonable and aren't vague or cruel about deadlines.

Hooray, due to the aforementioned timetable cockup, I also missed today’s Thursday-morning lecture because it wasn’t where the timetable used to say it was. In theory I should have looked more carefully as soon as I noticed the time change. Buit in theory, the university shouldn’t have cocked up in the first place. Also in theory, this gives me an extra 20 minutes to work on this essay.

Since we're all ranting. Im in Paramedic school right now to try and better myself in the medical aspect of my field so I though that the 'one day a week' class would be great cause I could still work and have time to study; as apposed to going everyday for 9months and living in a gutter. I now just live in a cardboard box cause all my money wont buy me anything anymore.

On top of that this school is turning out to be the most unorganized monstrosity ever. Its ok though, we're just dealing with peoples lives here. Just last week we asked them to clairify when our first semestier final was and they said 'Oh, next class. Now heres three new chapters to go over'. It would have been nice if I coulda taken time off from work to actually study but instead my schedual was already done and I had the night before to study for the damn thing.

Im sure none of you actually read that but I just needed to join in the venting.

*Edit* I don't know how I posted twice, I though I hit edit. : /
