I AM SO TIRED.

Note to self: never compare grad school experiences with anyone else until you finish the Master's. Because there is NOTHING more demoralizing than talking to someone who started hers a year after you did, is still working full-time, is taking a 42-credit Master's while yours is 36 and blithely talks about taking 4 class (read: 12 credit) semesters and how she'll be done in December. Nothing.

How the hell do you take a 12-credit semester and work full time without basically dumping half your work on other people? How? I want her secret.

I had an online class once. It wasn't mine, it was my (now-ex)husband's. He's a lazy jerk and I didn't want him to waste (my) money, so I took the class for him. They wouldn't let me get ahead, I had to do work as it was released. Man, I hated that. I think I barely got a B. I might have even gotten a C. I was really flaking out on it because it was HIS class, but like an idiot I had paid for it for him. :P
