Over

I have never been so happy to see the end of a course as I am to see the end of the one I just completed Sunday. OMG, I thought it was going to kill me! I am typically a very good student, or so considered by my professors anywho (straight As so far), but this class I'm just praying for a B. As a grad student, I am not supposed to get anything below a B. This prof and I just never quite saw eye to eye on what the assignments were supposed to be. IOW, I just didn't get his expectations. But it's over now and my new class, which started yesterday, is looking MUCH better. I think I understand this one. On top of that, the expectation of reading and assignment seems much more realistic. I'm done with my first week's homework (Not due til Sunday) and almost done with the main reading. I am trying to get two weeks worth of reading done this week, though, so I can be one week ahead and have homework done on Tuesday instead of stressing to get it done on Sunday. 
Due to that class, this past weekend was sooo stressful. Working on my paper half the time and worrying about it the other half. I was up until almost 4am Saturday night working on the paper and I am still having trouble getting to sleep earlier than that. Sunday I was up til three, last night til 1:30. I'm hoping to get to bed on time tonight and fall asleep quickly. 
Already I feel about 90% less stressed just for being in a better class. If you have a moment, pray that the prof likes my paper enough to give me a B in the class so I don't ever have to take it again. lol!

I\'m so glad that bear is over for you, Jenna! I hope you and your professor for this new class DO understand each other, right from the start, and I am praying for that B.

Good Work! :-)

What a relief! I don\'t know how you do it--working, being a mom, going to grad school. I\'m so glad your new class seems more reasonable. It will certainly help your stress level. Many blessings.
