Another bites the dust ! Well, metaphorically...

Marking is like fighting. Papers are the evil adversaries that I hurt with my red pen until they are all bloody injured. The mark is the final coup de grâce ! I know it isn't pretty but someone has to do it.

Yes I'm done with one assignment, so I'm enjoying a tea time break. 

But there are still 27 papers left I have to finish today since tomorrow I give my students a last class test, a 2 hours essay, that I'll have to mark before Tuesday...

I think I've reached the Nineth Circle of Marking Hell. I can see Satan stuck in ice just below. Hopefully on Monday I'll escape by climbing the fur of Lucifer!

If  I get the marking done by, let's say, 9 pm, I'll reward myself with the finale of Lost which is downloading!

ETA: Updated deadline...10 pm might be more likely...I can do it, I can do it!

I hate this time of year for last minute marking and sorting out things. Thank goodness we have a week of half term holiday next week, so I'm REALLY looking forward to catching up with things in my own time and with no other deadlines to meet at the same time!
