So it looks like I'm never going to slow down

First of all, OMG! I can't believe how long it has been since I've written on here.

Anyway, as of yesterday, it looks like I will never ever get a chance to relax again.

Why is that?

Batchelor's class.
It's not like she's asking too much (REALLY! not sarcastic). however, it seems to me that she has forgotten that we have 7 other classes to do work for. And most of us have jobs, and we participate in various clubs and other actividades extracuriculares around the school.

Honestly, if all I had to devote my time to was her assignments, it would be a cake walk.

And I KNOW that it's obviously not supposed to easy. It's an Honors course for a reason.
I can handle hard assignments. Where I struggle is when we have OVERLAPPING (!!!) hard assignments. we have two essays revisions, a mini research project-type thing, and new book to read, and these have all been assigned within the last, like, 4 class periods.

She always says that she gives us assignments in advance so that we don't have to do anything at the last minute. FYI: 4 days is not that far in advance, AND I have to do things at the last minute because it is my ONLY spare minute.

I have assignments due for other classes, I work all weekend and somewhere in there, I have to try to have a social life.

I'm still a teenager! I don't want to spend all of my time locked away behind a computer screen typing power verbs and practicing for the SAT.
But I have been ASSURED that these are the steps that must be taken to have a successful life. so, I will soldier on.

Begrudgingly. :/
