Only 10 pages! Feh

Well I am in the midst of schoolwork again. I just finished up my Mid-Term. It was 4 multi-part essay questions and I had to cite soucses for each answer. It was more like four mini-research papers than a true mid-term. It probably took me just as long to answer the essay questions as it would for me to study for a multiple-choice exam, so I guess it works out to be the same. Sheesh, how my expectations have changed. I was fearful of having to write a 10 page paper for my first Masters classs. Now I've written a 40 page paper for my last class and just turned in a Mid-Term that was roughly 20 pages. I long for the days of only having to write a 10 page term paper. I really have a weird attitude about school. When I finish a course,I'm really relieved to be done, but then I start to feel like I'm just sitting around doing nothing. As soon as the next course starts though I get stressed about having no free time anymore. Now that the Mid-Term is done I have 3 weeks to complete the first project. As soon as that is turned in I have 3 weeks to work on the second project, before the Final Exam. Both the projects are significant writing assignments and I'm sure that the Final will be like the Mid-Term. Oh I long for the days of multiple choice exams and 10 page papers.
