Burkingam:
I have a structured data analysis course every Wednesday but I'm so busy all week long, I have so many things to think of that each time I have a hard time remembering what we did the week before.
Ixarku:
I am worn the fuck out. Worked every day this week, spent 1 to 1.5 hrs every evening so far this week doing something house-related, plus spent 1-2 hrs every evening writing. This evening was mowing the lawn, which may not sound like much of a chore, but mowing 1/2 acre with a push lawnmower going non-stop for an hour when much of the ground is uneven or at an angle is a bit tiring for an out-of-shape 40 year old.
Corunes:
Today reminded me just how much I hate group work...
My group has had over a month to get together a ~10 minute video. Only two criteria: It's all in Spanish and has to have a moral.
Today, after days of trying to get us all together, we go over to someone's house and ofc every damn time I tried to be serious, everyone would goof off and nothing would get done. Repeat for about 5 hours. We got some 20 minutes of shitty footage, not even done so we have to do this AGAIN tomorrow.
Now I've got a ton of work to do now that I'm back home since I literally wasted 5 hours of my life.

That happens all the time to me as well. That's why I prefer group work that I can do all by myself if people decide to be dicks and not do anything. That way I know it's decent as well, and not crap like all of these idiots at school spew out because they don't care about their futures and decide to ruin others by not caring as well.
MikaMik:
I hate group activities like that as well. Having to cooperate with people and rely on them to actually show up is really stressful. On that note, so yesterday I got a part in the script I wrote. Well, three actresses decided not to show up at all today, which is fine I can understand if something happened. Turns out one of them got in a fight, and is now suspended from school for 10 days. I'm still not sure about the other two, but I really hope they show up I need my final grade in that class.
