This is what you should do, but I stand behind my post.

I do too. A lesson in brownnosing never hurts though.

Also, at least make it seem as if you try really hard at your course. A student who cares is worth so much more to a professor than a student who glides by on the bare minimum.

The dates were always posted, but never obvious, and like I said, everything was always due on a Saturday, every single time, and every other class I've taken has stayed consistent with their due dates. What reason should I have had to expect that this time would be any different?

i turned 30 the other day, but i feel 40.

i drink too much, but without alcohol i find it extremely psychologically draining to deal with people everyday.

my back hurts, and so does my hip(another good reason to drink).

the past two years my mother has been staying with me every month or so for 6 days at a time. For the past decade we've rarely seen each other due to living on opposite coasts. I had forgotten how annoying she was and how awful it is to live with a woman. Her constant nagging and repeating of herself, emotional instability and completely insane neuroticisms(thinks high rise will burn down and we'll die, not safe to go out after dark while living in a safe area, must have window open overnight even during freezing temperatures because she's 'claustrophobic'). She's a terrible cook and has the eating habits of a five year old(cookies, cakes, hot dogs, mac and cheese, fast food, soda). She also eats ketchup. I hate ketchup and people who eat it, doubly so for people who put ketchup on steak. These people should be shot.

that's all for now.

I check my college email and announcement board 2x a day, it's a good habit to get into to avoid the kind of problem you're having. I know you have the time to do that.

Shouldn't expect anything, just stay on top of things.

You've also been a professional college student for, what, a third of your life? I haven't stepped foot in a classroom since I was 18. What do you expect me to know about how this **** works?

Nah, just food for thought. I said I agreed with Frown. You're seemingly intelligent, I think if you took things more seriously you could easily be an A student setting up a solid future for yourself.

Why is she living with you?

I love ketchup on steak. Come at me.
