thus was I knit to man's nature

Ugh. I'm at once immensely tired of my coursework, and feeling really unprepared for the end of term. I keep psyching myself out over not much really, but somehow since it's grad school it feels like it's all Important and Hard and Scary.

The ideal length of time for a class is an interesting question - I was talking to someone in my cohort about how our 14/15 week semester feels too long to me, and she said that on the contrary, she'd really prefer at least 17 weeks. I think I'd like 11/12, a little longer than my undergrad trimesters, but still brief enough to never turn into a slog.
