Oh god, this project is never going to be done. It's swallowing me whole.

Heeeeeeelp*chomp*

ETA: FInished semology. Need to figure out how to do my syntax sheets still, and cohesion. Will do rhetoric tonight. Still debating just ignoring cohesion. Arrgh.

Need to go into school and drop off my marking, and pick up next year's calender/registration book. Erk. Maybe I can get some work done there and on the bus.

The paper proper so far is 12 pages long (and I have 32 sections till to do, and a conclusion to tie everything together), and I have 35+ pages of analysis so far, and probably more of my notes that all have to be handed in. Fucking hell.)

Went to school, dropped off the marking (and agreed to go in at 8:30 Thursday to help proctor an exam, which means reading a book. Yaye being a marker/demonstrator!), and picked up the registration guide for next year.

There are abso-fucking-lutely no upper-level cultural anthro courses being offered next year. Which means that I may be kinda fucked for getting that double honours that I've been pondering.

&$#*#$)@

I need to have a chat with the head of the department. If anything, I do want to take at least one anthro course next year, and I'd love for it to be with him. I'm just feeling like I'm being fucked over on this.

Also, the Oral History course that profs were telling me about isn't in the book. I'm thinking of emailing the professor who was going to offer the course, and ask him what's up with that.

So next year looks like: special topics on something (possibly oral storytelling) for linguistics, discourse analysis, contemporary linguistic theory, history of the english language. Maybe viking history (for kicks?) and intro biostats.

I got some signifigant work done at school on my project. Now to type up syntax and do cohesion. If I'm a good little worker, I may even get rhetoric done tonight, and do up my conclusion tomorrow morning and get this sucker handed in.

Talk you off? Talk you off what, Pop-Pop?

I'm not an English teacher, nor do I want to be. I read, and I can remember.

As we proved at the party on Saturday night, just because we're English linguistics students doesn't mean that we have a firm grasp on the English language. Nor Luxembourgish, for that matter.

I could just be stressed, but there's just something about someone posting the header to a fic to a comm, but saying that because of some reason(maybe it's a good one, I've never heard of bloglines before so I'm not sure what the issue is), you're not posting the fic publically and that we have to friend you to read it, that really ticks me off.

I understand that people have their reasons for keeping their journals friends-only, but it just seems... not on to do that.

Am I overreacting? Probably. What is this Bloglines thing, and why is it affecting people posting fic?

Done syntax, finally *eyeroll* It's kinda crap, but my paper is at the 15 page mark, and I still have 2 sections to write, as well as a conclusion.

My fear at the moment is that I'm going to go to print it out tomorrow, and have run out of ink and paper, printing up all of my appendices and everything.
