These past couple of weeks have been one of the most, if not THE most, stressful times in my life. I've been trying to keep my head above water but at times I still feel like I'm drowning. Today was one of those days...
First off, let me say that my Sociology professor is pretty lenient when it comes to due dates. So much so that all semester, she's allowed people to wait until the next class meeting to give presentations. So after reviewing our schedule, I figured our presentation wasn't until Thursday. OH NO. My professor is all like, "So, the education group is going today, right?" I look back at the girl who has kind of served as the leader and she looked as surprised as I felt. So when it came time to get up in front of the class, I ran up to her and said, "Hey, I didn't think our presentation was until Thursday. I'm not prepared AT ALL." She responded by saying, "Me either," which made me feel waaaay better. So I dug deep and channeled my inner Bill O'Reilly and thought "FUCK IT, WE'LL DO IT LIVE." And actually, even though we were unprepared, our professor said we actually did pretty well.
Second, there was an exam over Islam in my Religious Studies class. Mind you, we had only spent 2 class periods on it and I had barely cracked the Qu'ran (which we were supposed to read entirely). I hadn't really had much time to study and went into it feeling quite unprepared.
I ended up being the 2nd person finished.
You might think this is a bad thing, but as I got going, I realized I knew more about Islam than I thought I did, thanks to my boyfriend's Muslim roommate. (Thanks, Hani!) And I'll be damned if I didn't actually do better on this test than the Christianity test. XD
I'm wondering if I secretly have the soul of a cat. And I'm also pretty sure that I have used up some of my 9 lives today.
