Deadlines

Not much to post lately. Busy trying to write stuff and read and study and get projects finished and organise my time effectively. The UCD library OPAC went down a few days ago which basically means I’m fucked for finding library references for my essay (unless I spend Tuesday afternoon rummaging around after classes, which I’m planning to do). I know what I want to write, and I’ll get it done on time, but I can’t help feeling that I’ve been screwed over.

I asked for an extention, just to ask (better to ask than not, I say), but Dr. Komito turned me down. Of course, I can see it from his point of view - regards giving me a personal extention - but would it not be fair to give the whole class a two-day amnesty? Then again, I wouldn’t be complaining if I did the essay a week ago, would I?

Ahh, to hell with it. So what if I don’t stick to his reading list? Any of the books that I did find by chance aren’t that much of a help for what I want to write anyway. And besides, I don’t really agree with the essay question. You’ll see what I mean when I (hopefully) stick it online next week.
