It's a stupid sort of research-writing tutorial that's actually a recitation section of a methods course, so I don't really have free rein. And I'm intimidated by all the grading I'll have to do. Any of you PMSian teachers (by which I guess I mean James alone, since I haven't seen Utar for a while) have some sententious nuggets of wisdom for me?

To live is to suffer. The suffering only stops when you die. In the meantime, you might as well make yourself useful.
My suggestion, particularly with regards to all that grading: don't bring it home (if you can). Maybe you stay there longer to work, fine, but being able to go home and not keep working is a wonderful feeling.

*obligatory "Those poor kids..." comment*
In my vast knowledge of being a TA for a year, grading homework, I can tell you this- Kids are stupid. I mean REAL stupid. You're gonna wanna rip your hair out about 3 or so students in on your "first go" at it. Then the apathy kicks in, and you're grading those mutha****** in 30 seconds or less.

They say I'm just scared. Yes, I am scared. But that doesn't mean I'm wrong.
Right now I'm in a race to see if I can finish grading this assignment before my brain melts and dribbles out my ears.

Phew! I think I won. But I'm afraid to check my ears.
