Not strong enough


It's the last week of school before holiday season, and let me tell you, if I make it through the week without punching someone or crying publicly, it's going to be a good week. Here's the brief runthrough:

On Monday, at approximately 4am, I finally got my Accounting assignment done. It was horrible. It still fails a lot, but at least I think I'll pass the course. And I can actually explain most of the numbers, which apparently is a requirement. So I got a solid four hours of sleep before getting up and going to school. We had a self and peer assessment session for the project I'm project manager of. It was quite cathartic to actually officially report forward my opinions of certain peers' participation (or lack thereof). Later on, we also had a more general feedback session.

So yeah, not much going on so far, except for running a bit low on sleep. However, I also had a deadline of a summary. Approximately 15 pages summarized, in two pages max. I also would need to add my notes from a meeting I didn't attend. And despite all this, I decided to take the work shift offered. The shift ended at 23.15.
I think I may have used this pic before, but it just... fits.
So, today I woke up at 7am and got to school. We had Amadeus program exam, and it was the most tear-worthy exam I've ever attended. The only good thing about it is that it's over now. With a bit of luck, I may have even passed and won't have to retake it after Christmas break. Next up, we have Spanish. I'm supposed to give a five-minute speech I have not prepared for. That's not the bad part. The bad part is that if I would list every word of Spanish I know, it would 't take me five minutes. (Yeah, I'm quitting Spanish.)

Tomorrow, we'll have what will most likely be the second-most tear-worthy exam I've ever attended. See, our Global Business Opportunities teacher is kind of peculiar in that he has a habit of actually demanding us to be able to think for ourselves. And it shows in the kind of work he expects from us. So, it will be tough. We would also have Spanish exam, but... yeah, not attending.

Wednesday night we will most probably be celebrating the End of the World As We Know It, because it's 12/12/12 and it's Wednesday.

And, on Thursday, we have another exam by the same guy we have tomorrow. This time it's Business English, which usually is not of big difficulty for me. However, seeing as I'm getting seriously sleep deprived, and increasingly frustrated, it may turn out to pose some considerable challenge. Plus, it's most likely going to be a handwritten exam, which means problems. See, I'm lefthanded, and that means I have to hold my wrist up when I write in order to not wipe off whatever I wrote. This means that my hand tires extremely fast, and it doesn't do any favors to readability, either.

And, on Friday, we have an exam based on the assignment I finished on Monday. About half of the class isn't even done yet, and I'm at the top half of the class anyway. However, everyone is stressing over it, and it's kind of rubbing off on me.

So, yeah. I may be making another blog post once this week is over and I can focus on something else besides how much everything sucks.
