three weeks into school and I feel like I'm sailing into an inescapable academic doom-spiral at the moment
like last semester I did really well but this semester the combined course-load and other things feels like it's too much to handle? I don't know if it's overconfidence or re-acclimating from being on break or three difficult science courses or what but I think when push comes to shove I don't honestly feel I'll be capable of getting my act together
also this is actually a really fucking important semester because three of my four classes are the latter halves of two-semester courses and if I mess up in those that means waiting a semester to get back into them (which keeps me from moving forward in those things which is not good); the other course is cellular biology which is integral to all of the upper-level biological sciences I'm interested in (genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology if I somehow make it to 400-level courses)
so yeah if I'm freaking out on IRC or snapping at people or doing my usual thing of abruptly quitting and returning inexplicably a half-hour later that's why
