The penalty for making me scan 23 pages of feedback is that most of it is going to be upside down or sideways
#i mean i get why this is a thing i need to include with my assignment but it’s still annoying#you’re really going to make me and my shitty hp printer do all of that 26 hours before my essay is due huh#to be completely fair to my lecturers; i had plenty of opportunities to use a college printer to do this#i just didn’t because the college printers scare the shit out of me#i know how to print from them and that’s literally it. and i only know how to do that because my TA showed me#i also didn’t need to leave it this long but i mean.. realistically was i going to manage my time well? absolutely not#this is my sixth year in higher education and my second year in grad school and i have never not once given myself ample time to complete#an assignment. but i have also never failed an assignment or turned one in late#so the system has to be working. the system does make me want to die sometimes (e.g. when i wake up hungover at 9am; get yelled at by my#landlord; then have to finish; proofread; and submit an essay by noon)#but you can’t deny that on paper the system definitely seems to work#anyway. the point is i’ve scanned in my feedback#i don’t have a lot to do tomorrow tbh. i packed for my trip (visiting a friend who works from home; both of us fully vaxxed and tested#negative) so i just need to finish the assignment#i have ~1200 out of 1500 words but most of them suck and i still haven’t brought any theory into it#still don’t think it’ll take me longer than a couple of hours tomorrow morning though#i thought about just powering through and doing it now but i really don’t see why i should#why should future me get to have a good time? what has she ever done for me? nothing. because she can’t. that’s what i thought#personal
