Busier than I want to be

I never thought I would be doing so much extra homework. I still don't like calculus, but I feel like I'm starting to understand it better. Whatever that means. The last two weeks have been horrible. I was not understanding the composition rule (or chain rule) and the assignments that followed required that you know it. So I got a little farther behind in the two classes that followed. I still have some unfinished homework assignments and lab work that need to be done by Tuesday afternoon before the exam. I've done pages and pages and pages of extra homework, went to the PCC learning center numerous times, and talked to a friend of mine who had taken calculus only a few years ago and did well in it. I finally felt like I was understanding the rule, at least somewhat, yesterday and am feeling a little more confident about the upcoming test. I've been spending most of my time doing this and am getting sick of it. Hopefully, the rest of the term won't give me quite as hard a time. I hope that I don't have to ever take any more calculus classes, but it may be unavoidable. For now, all I have left is two Statistics classes. They should be easy after this one.
