I was fooled! No seriously, I was fooled. See, I thought that simply because I was taking a Masters' level class that would count towards my doctoral credits that the class would be sort of simple! I was WRONG!!!! First, not having a formal background in the field of education means that I have to stay up to date on the background knowledge in the field while I read in order to at least make it seem as if I know what I am talking about. On top of that, I am in an accelerated course, which means in four weeks, my twenty page paper is due. By next Saturday my take home is due (which I mistakenly thought was due this Saturday), and by the following Saturday my observation assignment is due, which took forever to decide what I would do. In addition, every time I post a response only one person responds to my post, and I am required to respond to at least two responses.
I continuously feel as if I am behind and that my work is incomprehensible since no one responds. I don't know if my feelings are coming from academic/intellectual insecurities, unpreparedness, or both. Well, whatever it is... some changes are in order. Anyhow, today I will be staying up until around 2 a.m. in order to play catch up, but this is the life I elected to live.
Later Gators;)
