Fast and Hard

Sometimes when I sign up or volunteer to do things I don't always write them down on our calendar at first. Ok, I NEVER write them down at first. I always remember dates and events, so this may not seem like that big of a deal...

until you take into consideration this week's dilemma.

Recently, I volunteered to:

Get a group of couples together to perform in a talent show,

Provide the cake for a baby shower (not buy, bake and decorate),

Donate 40 bags = 80 cookies for one of my club's bake sales,

and finally...

Not only teach but choreograph a traditional jig (which I have NEVER DONE) for a large group of women.

All in 7 days.

Not that big of a deal, until you factor in...

my quiz on counseling theories,

my team presentation on adolescent sex trends,

my meeting presenting my reviewed research articles and developed quizzes for my research assistantship,

and my biology exam which all happen to fall within the same 7 day period.

Tag on the weekly readings for my classes and the prep work for a big, stupid paper due the next week (no, really, the assignment is SO STUPID), plus my munchkin and the dreaded potty training and you have one freaked out woman.

Plus, Mr. Spin has all of his work and is then also spending half this weekend doing a story (covering, editing, etc.)...

And did I mention: we need to do laundry, STAT!! lol

On the up side, I did get my biology exam back. I got a 45.5 out of 46. Ok, actually, I only got a 44.5 out of 46 because my professor forgot to mark one wrong. After she went through the answers I approached her, (whispering, of course) and informed her that she forgot to mark me wrong on an answer. (Oh yes, I'm one of those people.)

My professor commented that she would only take of half of a point due to my honesty, but I told her just take the full point (fair is fair, why reward someone for something that should exist in everyone?), which then she thanked me for my honesty and said that she would probably forget to change it anyway.

Well, it's off my chest at least.

As for my other assignment I received a grade for yesterday...

don't get me started on that professor. (I'm trying to stay positive in order to conserve my energy for the next week.)

Well, I hope everyone can make time for themselves in the next week, because that's exactly what I'm going to be doing...

8 days from now. :)
