Final Paper and New Roommates

Well these last 24 hours have really tested my limits.

I have my final paper (3000 words) due tonight at 9:00pm and of course I pre close at the restaurant. I spent yesterday filling out 100 pages of surveys that I then had to write the paper about. I feel a little crazy since I went to bed at 3:00 am and woke up at 9:00 am this morning to continue working. I cannot wait for this shit to be done. I am going to a friends cottage next weekend and I have been counting down the days until I am laying on a beach after an afternoon of reading and day drinking.

In other news, we are currently looking for a new roommate in our student house. I am not happy about this. Since we have moved in, it has been my boyfriend and our two friends from high school so it was very easy to live together. Now we are getting a stranger and every way that we run the house has to change. It's a long story.

I really hope my last year of university isn't ruined by some weirdo or trouble maker.


I'm over it.

Will The Madness Ever End?!

I have three papers due next week and I work every day for the rest of the week.

Paper one: 3 pages (not bad)
Paper two: 1500 - 2000 words (doable)
Paper three: 6500 words (WHAT?)

I am trying to tackle the third paper right now and as I am working through it, I can't stop thinking about how I will hardly be able to work on them after tomorrow because I work 2 split shifts this weekend  and a pre-close (hello tips, goodbye GPA). I haven't even begun to look at the first two papers.


Why is being a student so difficult? It's summer school so these courses are moving super quick so trying to be on top of it plus work at least four shifts a week has been getting really over-whelming. The restaurant asked me to pick up a shift today and tomorrow and I told them I could do tomorrow (which I am starting to regret), but hopefully the tips will be good and make up for it. I worked on Monday night and it was so busy. Apparently it has been like that all week so they are trying to add staff to the floor. This is the second last week of these courses though and after that I will be starting a new one but thankfully it will only be one course. I think it'll be a lot more manageable.

So while I sit in this chair for the next 6 hours, please say a prayer to the paper gods for me!
