Fuck is it already Wednesday again?

Being crushed slowly but surely by all the shit I have to do. I had a professor not send the syllabus for my class today until late Saturday night with a required book list eleven books long which would have been just fine if he hadn't posted to the central textbook website that we didn't have any required books. Found an alum with almost everything I need, though so I'll be okay in that regard.

One of my classes is an "in practice" type class so it's less about book learning and more about analytical exercises so the projects will be hard but the day to day workload shouldn't be. The other is hugely text heavy -- more than I've seen so far in any other class I've had in this program.

I also found out yesterday that despite a policy re-write intended for people like me, I'm actually still not eligible for a birthright trip to Israel because of the length of the program I went on in high school. Which is some shit because I was really looking forward to traveling for free but at least I don't have to deal with the moral burden of receiving a free trip to Israel and all that entails.
