Being the cock-eyed optimist lunatic I can be at times I enrolled myself in two subjects for this study period. One was the psych subject I dropped last year, which I figured would be easy since I’d already done half the work and the other was a introductory sociology subject that sounded easy and didn’t have an exam.

I haven’t even opened a book until today because I was waiting for a quiet moment to have a look at dates, get my head around it all and so on. With Mark and Finn off to Phillip Island I got that moment this afternoon and was a little horrified by what I found.

The first assignment for the psych subject is due in two weeks. I completed the same assignment last year and did well on it so I don’t have to do it again from scratch, which is just as well. The first assignment for the sociology subject was due last Friday !! Who makes an assignment due on Good Friday for heaven’s sake! Thank goodness, it’s not difficult one, though. Just a 500 word response to the reading (which I haven’t done) for the first 2 weeks. It’s just that it’s already late.

At moments like this I do wonder about my sanity…
