Okay so I'm finally going to Macao after all that scurrying about - what with "you can't come as a composite team" and then "you can come but you can't break" and then having to find someone who could go and then finding out that NC wasn't gonna go even as a judge, all the shit we had to go through to book tickets (finalized the tickets 30 minutes before the deadline for payment, which was this afternoon!).
I will be leaving straight from school right after class in the morning.
Which means I have to do all of the following things in the next 10 hours:
1) Pack: need to choose what to wear for four days.
2) Finish writing my Research Methods paper (which is... about half done)
3) Email the paper to prof, with an explanation of why I'm handing it in early
4) Finish writing my EAE paper (which I haven't even started yet, although I have a stack of references sitting around on my desk)
5) email the paper to my groupmate, so she can look over it before handing it in on Friday
6) Finish 첨삭
7) Finish grading tests
I have so much work in my hands I don't know where to start or what order to do them in and this is making me nearly schezophrenic.
And I know that it will be impossble to finish doing all of these AND make it to class on time tomorrow morning. (Which is really bad, because I've been late for Thursday classes quite a few times.)
I'm just hoping I won't fall asleep before I finish all of them.
I'm going to Macau tomorrow and I don't even know what their currency is called or what the exchange rate is like.
Okay I just looked it up and it's called the Macau Pataca, and the XR is 1MOP=145.571 KRW.
XR for HKD is 1 HKD= 149.938 KRW.
So I should be expecting about 150 won per MOP or HKD.
And then there is the fear that I won't even break and be so smooshed at the tiny 16-team tournament. I haven't been debating for nearly two years now so I know I won't even stand a chance of making it to the final round. But I really really hope that somehow, miraculously, that we can at least break. Even if we're the last breaking team.
And I know I won't be able to give my 100% during the tournament because I will be worrying about the two papers I have to write the moment I come back home.
But I also know Ican't do anything about that until I actually come home, so I'll try to be chill about that and focus on having a good time in Macau.
(big sigh)
Okay back to work now!!!
No sidetracking tonight!!!
