Tomorrow morning at 11 (agh insanely early) have to hand in 5 pages (a total of 12,000 characters written) that were due.
One of the pages was simply a re-summary of a paper I wrote on statistics because the grading professor thought the paper wasn't academical or systematic enough. That was easy enough since I simply took the 3 page essay from before, took a new statistic and then condensed all the possible information into one page. No prob.
The real bitch was writing the 4 pages on Globalisation and Realism for a class I had only attended once, and with a textbook I had just bought today. However I think it went exceedingly fast considering I procrastinated until 1 am before I started.
Also of note, I got informed of both on the 15th and both are due on the 17th. They are a nice tradition called "48 hour essays" and are contingent on a person being able to pass the semester.
Now to make this article much more Josh like, it looks very likely like I'm going to lose my job or that they won't be able to accommodate the amount of hours I need. Other options for me are to take a 12 hour night shift once a week at another warehouse. Apply for a job where Phil works (although I don't think I could do that kind of work) or maybe apply for a student position at the foreign ministry, that would be a study-relevant job that I actually have some references for.
We'll see. Stupid peugeot.
oh and my laptop is falling apart before my eyes and it will be at least several months before I can save up for a new one.
