my presentation went well! except when i went three minutes overtime and toward the end asked my professor "am i overtime?" to which he responded "way overtime" and i yelled "SHIT!" really loud and my sudden panic sent my papers flying and by that point there were actually a lot of faculty members who had stopped by to watch and i think i really disappointed all of them with my cussing. i'm sorry, old criminologists, i'm sorry i cussed. but maybe i taught you something today. i hope i did. i said a lot of words in those 15 minutes and most of them were pretty fancy, like "resource lens" and "competency-based framework" and "community reintegration".
now i have a 30 page paper to write by (next) friday and i would like to start now but before then i have to pull yet another all-nighter tonight to make an exam review question sheet for my students which i guess i technically don't have to do but criminal law is fucking hard and most of them literally begged me to do this after i confirmed what a nightmare the final would be so i guess i really dug my own grave there but you know, you got to do what you got to do and then i can't even start this monster paper because i have to go to my supervisor's house for dinner because she invited me and i can't say no to anything she asks me to do because she is my supervisor and my degree is like 100% contingent on how much she likes me and she lives on an island and i have to take a boat to the island and i also have to bring her a pie and meet her kids and i haven't slept in like three or four or five days and what is my fucking life
Lines:
That is what graduate school is like.

i thought those were my qualities too when i first enrolled in this program but the more i examine the recurring themes in my most recent posts, the more i'm pretty sure i'm really just an incredible fucking moron who made a terrible, terrible life decision
tania:

tania:
in my partial defense i have no money and am like actually starving 90% of the time i'm awake
