It'll be more manageable once school is over, that's for sure...bleh...I've got senioritis real bad. I have two book reviews, one seven page essay, and one essay to revise before I'm done. Uh. So...need to get that stuff done by Friday. Hahah, I'm always behind.
I guess I also have to finish up stuff for work work too...but that's like the rl equivalent of grinding. I'm going through a database of 18th century newspapers for a professor and downloading/printing/highlighting every article where are certain person is mentioned. (Atm I'm working on John Adams...1700ish articles from 1750-1803, at least in the British press.) Also need to have that done by Friday. Argh.
...should really be working, not KofK-ing...
...but bees...

I had an assignment last Thursday where I needed confirmation from the client before I could go ahead. I told him it would be done by Tuesday but then he never confirmed until Wednesday. Now I have to super-rush it through, and I already have 2 big half-day articles plus three rewrites of someone else's copy plus some photography to do before Saturday -_____- thanks dude

Every single person acts like I don't have anything else to do. There have been times when this guy sent me work and I wasn't able to fit it in to my schedule so I don't know why he would leave it until the next week to check up. What if my email had said that I couldn't do it at all? Then he'd be totally screwed.
Anyway, I've managed to be somewhat productive XD I had 17 articles for him and 5 for someone else, so 22 total, when I woke up yesterday. Now I only have 6 left. Although I will definitely need a day off very soon now rofl

We're going out to a food festival today so I'm saying that counts XD although to be fair I am going for press purposes. And we are booked in for a review table at a restaurant later. But it's not technically work if you only get paid in free stuff, right? XD
