Yesterday was just a disaster, we'll leave it at that.
Today was a little better...had to change tactics for my summer course (again), but seeing as how the professor is stressing the supplementary text much more than the main text, that's not as bad as it sounds. Don't have results on my map quiz, and won't before Tuesday...but that's just how it is.
Got the first two of my three projects yesterday...they're hard, but they're fair; the two texts I have for the course is all I'm supposed to use for the first paper and I have multiple options for the special project...and a few days to think about it. I'm not really sure which one I want...I mean, there's one with two movies involved that's awfully tempting because I know one of them is on DVD in my house, but movies and me haven't gotten along too well, even if they are ones that can be called pertinent to the course (has anybody seen Master and Commander?).
Let one of my friends start to grill me last night at length...I admitted that at this point, somebody has to, I'm getting nowhere on my own. There seems to be an awful lot of stuff that needs to be worked through...I mean, she has me started on an itty bitty baby step that should help because it's easier for me to do, but I'm just amazed by how badly I view myself as a person; it just feels wrong and yet I can't pull myself out of the hole. So I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that putting together the me that everybody says I am is probably going to be months in the making, but again, itty bitty baby steps.
At least I know someone's not giving up on me. That does matter.
