School has been extremely busy lately, which has kept me from blogging. Now thanks to my
These last two weeks for school have been crazy. Last week was recruiting week on campus, a very stressful time to look for an internship or job. I guess one of the perks of being in school for a very, very long time is that I know some of the recruiters, which helps save a lot of time and effort. Still, updating resumes, dressing up, brushing up on technical material and more preparation can really add up, especially when school still needs your attention.
And that's where most of the stress came from this last week. I've had homework due in all my classes this last week, and the class I TA has had two assignments and a test. I like being a TA; I really enjoy helping the younger students. However, it takes a lot of effort because it is basically another class you're taking. I write solutions for homework, so I have to do their homework. I grade the tests, so I have to do the tests as well. Also, since the class is at 8:30 am, the professor decided to have me proctor the test while he gets a few extra hours of sleep.
Anyways, I don't like to complain too much, but getting to vent like this really helps. Yes, grad school is a lot of work, but I know it will be worth it in the end. And unlike undergrad, the material in the courses I'm taking is very interesting.
Thank you all. Read my girlfriend's blog. I promise it's better than mine. --> http://loveislife0lourdes0echagarruga.blogspot.com/
