Update on end of semester craziness

So after my freak out moment, I decided to be proactive. I've been fighting a cold since Thanksgiving, and yesterday it seemed like it was kicking into high gear again. Apparently pregnancy can make colds last longer, and more annoying. One of the joys. (I know it's worth it, I just sort of like complaining, obv.)

Anyway, so I stayed home from class (again) yesterday and emailed my professors explaining why I've been missing so much class. Two of my classes are really small, so I wanted to make sure they understood what was going on rather than thinking I am just some delinquent. They were very supportive. I asked one of them, the one who teaches the class I'm most worried about, what he thinks I should do about the final (drop? take it? write a paper instead?), and he said not to worry too much because it'd be almost impossible to fail or get a really bad grade. So I am worrying less about it. And my paper supervisor said she didn't need a draft if I didn't think she needed one - which I guess is good. So I just have to get a polished version of the paper to her by January. Guess what I'll be doing over Christmas break? :) The other two classes I'm not too worried about - one is a really big class, and I think I'll be ok. The other is small but we're doing a collaborative outline, so I can mooch off of other people's attendance. :)

It's looking up but I still need the grace of God to get me through the next three weeks.

OK, back to outlining (collaborative = I have to do some of it...).
