New post: Overwhelmed
I guess it has to happen. I though it was going to be different this
time. Anyway, I feel deeply and widely overwhelmed by the situation.
I’ve started to convert my articles into chapters, and writing
introductory material for everything. It’s like being on a building that
just blew up and you have never seen. Getting some readable and
convincing sounds like creating a building from these pieces.
On the other hand, there is the course we are having now. I feel
terribly sad about my students, specially those who work very hard, and
got frustrated about yesterday exam. Something is terribly bad, and it’s
my duty to try to fix it. Nothing personal. It is just not normal that
most people that will pass the course, have seen it three times. What do
we really need of them to learn? That’s not clear for me. Anyway, I’m
starting teaching next week, and I’ll do my best.
Bad combo on having a thesis to write on the same time. Bye, bye to
submitting something in January.
There were interesting projects that are starting to appear around me.
Not yet. So, they are officially filed until I get some speed on the
main task I have to work on.
Of course, I shall overcome all this. I know. It’s just hard nowadays.
