Yesterday I was going to bed and realizing just what a LONG day it had been. I:
-Woke up early (7), got to school by 8:30 to work on Senior Design
-Worked on senior design from 8:30-12
-Lunch with parents from 12-1
-epic surface house cleaning from 1-2:30 (thought we might have pre-banquet guests)
-met with Senior Design team 2:30-4
-got dressed, hair done, out the door by 5 to the Trombone Cocktail Party, then Band Banquet 6-9:30 (yaaaaay we both won scholarships this year)
-came home, wrote my Comprehensive Design Review report (and slideshow!) for senior design company presentation today (9:30-1:30)
And went to bed and went "wow, today was the same day I had lunch with my parents..."
It was an odd feeling.

So, still quite far behind in some of my classes, though almost caught up in Senior Design and Manufacturing

To Do:

Senior Design:
CDR today, start building and ordering parts! don't fall behind again...

Manufacturing:
In-class activities from when I was sick
Tueaday's reading questions
Tursday's homework (yay for this class being the only one I kept up on homework and reading in while I was out)

Advanced Stats:
Urg this one needs help. Yes it's easy to make up lectures because they're recorded, but each one is 2.5 hours BEFORE I keep stopping the tape to write things down. I should email the prof about what to do, because I am SO far behind.
Need to:
-finish watching 2 weeks ago's stats lecture
-do homework due last Tuesday
-watch last week's stats lecture
-do homework due tomorrow

MathStats:
Another class where I'm in trouble - I wasn't really understanding what was going on BEFORE I fell off the face of the earth for a week and a half. So now I'm behind by two homework assignments, and my prof, awesome though she is in person, ISN"T ANSWERING HER EMAIL. And I haven't the foggiest idea how to do what I need to do.

Life:
EPIC DISHES
EPIC LAUNDRY
sligly less epic housecleaning, but still a LOT of work to do...
scholarship letter
Christmas sewing! (yay break for that...)
Get to work on my internship applications! (also over break)

Life is SO MUCH IMPROVED. My professors are 75% awesome.

So I have 4 classes.

1) Manufacturing
Didn't REALLY get behind in this class because the prof follows the book exactly, and posts all the homework and such on the internet. Paul took my week's worth of homework in the one Thursday I missed, and I was back the next Thursday to turn that week's in myself. And when I got there my prof promptly told me to go back to bed and finish getting better, 'cuz she's nice that way.

2) Senior Design
This is the one the prof is less than awesome, I was stuck in bed for a week, and we STILL had our Comprehensive Design Review today, and I still managed to pull together a decent presentation, and include the math analysis I'd done while I was sick... but nooooo he's going on about not having critically dimensioned parts and computer models... well that's his issue. at least he was griping about this to the whole team, not just me. was not fun though

3) Research Methods
This class is just HARD. I go to the 2.5 hr lecture once a week, and then I go back and re-watch it, and then I do the 5ish hr homework assignment - EVERY WEEK. And I have to do the homework all at school because I don't have the program it uses. So how much STUFF I had to do was freaking me out. But I wrote to my prof and he said just try to catch up on watching the lecture I missed, come to class tomorrow night, and get the homework done whenever I can. SO relieved that he said that.

4) MathStats
I haven't understood what was going on in this class since a week BEFORE I was sick, and then I missed a week and a half... but Jem (prof) saved my life here too... she said not to worry about it untill Wednesday, we'll have a long help session then and she'll get me all caught up, I can do the last couple week's homeworks over break, and she'll let me make up the exam everyone else is taking on Friday. SO RELIEVED again.

And now I have been told I don't have work tomorrow. More good news. Which means I can go to bed EARLY and happy and do some homework in the morning and generally not stress out.
