dammit, I think I really messed up

12/11/2013

Missed a deadline for a paper, this stupid time difference between them and me, just can't seem to remember it.

Teacher hasn't posted grades for wk 4 yet, but knowing that I missed some key points earlier on in the class, forgot to post my questions for last week, and missing my posting day by one day later than planned has really put my passing this class in jeopardy.

double ugh....just looked back and I didn't write enough, thought I only needed to write between 700-1000 words and so I only wrote like 850, but the details said 1400-1750, damn....that's gonna take away more points too.

I just can't seem to pull it together. If I fail this class, then I have to pay to retake it and that means I have to wait until after my tax return comes back and I would have to pay $1850. Talk about major screw up. There are so many other things I need that money for and I'm so close to finishing my degree. I can't take the other two classes without successfully passing this one.

I am so hating myself at the moment. Just a little more determination, less slacking off, just a few more points and I wouldn't have had to worry about it, but no, I had to let life get in the way and distract me...

STOP beating yourself up first of all. the world does that enough to us single mommas as it is... So you messed up.. big deal. Did you learn from it? Good. Do you know what to do different next time? Even better!

I know but you know how hard it is to spend money on stupid mistake things when we are so tight...you know that probably better than I do cause you've always been so conscious about your budget, maybe I'm just learning that lesson a little later so I beat myself up more...regardless, I still have to pay for my stupid decisions, I'm just hoping that the teacher might be lenient, but it would take a huge miracle and her to not count my paper late at all, which I don't think she is able to do, but because grades aren't issued until 1-2 weeks after class, I won't know until the week of xmas or after the winter break and that is what is driving me nuts

Maybe try contacting her before the grades are done and posted and explaining how you're having trouble with the time difference thing. Maybe if she can see you had it in at the correct time in YOUR time zone, she'll have leniency on that part.
