I am feeling so overwhelmed with this semester. This has never happened to me before. I am loosing sleep over it, and I wake up having mini panic attacks with lists running through my head of all the things I need to do. It is not the amount of work that is getting to me, it is the pressure and importance behind everything I hand in lately, and all of these needless and expensive exams I need to take. I had no idea so many things would be sprung on me in one semester, and everything needs to be on a deadline, and graded by the department, and put in my portfolio, and scored on a rubric, or scored against my classmates...and on and on. I keep getting mailed things about all the stuff I need to do, just incase I forgot I suppose. I am not sure if I am going to get all the scores I need in time for the deadline date for my preparing to teach portfolio. If I don't get everything in on time, I have to push back student teaching. Yikes, that would be a nightmare. Why do they have to cram so much stuff into one semester! Why do you have to jump through hoops to get a teaching certificate? This is ridiculous. One of my professors actually told my class (after going over what we have to do for a huge artifact on top of what is due for the rest of the semester) to try not to cry in our cars on our way home from school.
