Aargh!

Right now, my backlog consists of:
  1. Four tests before the end of the semester - two for Criticism, one for The Tempest and its Aftermath, and another one for Indian Writing in English.
  2. Two term-papers to submit, one for Literature and Censorship, and another one for The Tempest and its Aftermath.
  3. One upcoming Bengal Chamber event on "Tagore and the Bengal Renaissance".
  4. The usual work - a couple of interviews, articles, plus pending content writing work.
  5. Books - Media and Violence; Sex, Literature and Censorship; Roald Dahl's Switch Bitch.
Gah. Too much work. I need 72 hours in a day. I'm feeling ill at the thoughts of those tests and term-papers. Plus exams next month. On top of all this, the heat isn't helping. I'm surviving on Iced Tea, Tang, tok dal, and shukto. Bye-bye, chicken and mutton - I really like you, but you're just not eatable in this weather.
But gah once again. Gah. I want to start swimming again. But where's the time?
Aargh, like the subject of this blogpost!
