... mu university would have to pull weapons on a professor to get them to teach on a Saturday.
#also I went to a top school and yet never felt like i was drowned in coursework the way these characters are#i never pulled an all-nighter#slept in comfortably most days except for my stupid 7am calculus course#the only project I ever stressed on was my final for advanced featurewriting#i knew from the start it would be an intense revision of the 2nd script draft so i just never stopped lightly renovating it on my own#it would have been a completely breezy final with only a little work to be added after the final scripting session#but the scripting program glitched out#and neither the saved copy nor my backup were clean because it glitched as it was updating saves and corrupted both#so I spent 5 hours having to retype 137 pages of script from scratch on 2 separate computers to ensure it couldnt happen again#thank god i had written all updates on a previous draft so it was mainly transcription#now I save all files in multiple locations and close each program fully after each individual save so multiple files cannot corrupt#but that was a freak incident not a standard working situation#to be fair to my classmates though i had a general habit of looking ahead on archived previous coursework from the last semester#printed out the rubric information and project details on what they had to do#and worked ahead when I had free time so that I had extra time on every assignment#pro tip if you try that- go back at least 5 years bc professors swap stuff around to keep it fresh#and then at most i needed to do small tweaks here and there to meet the new standards#so i was never fully caught by a project and time crunched#love director#paint
