Beginning Again

This was my first summer in a long time where I wasn't taking classes. At first it was weird but I adjusted to doing nothing pretty quickly. I read and/or listened to the Harry Potter Books. I tried to listen to the Twilight books, but her voice was just way too annoying. It didn't help any that the character was whiny as well.

So, I've always looked forward to the start of the term. I'm very much a person that needs a significant jumping off point to make any drastic changes. Changes like; a steady bedtime and waketime, homework schedule, eating at certain times, etc. I used to only be able to start a diary or journal on January 1, but now I'm okay with starting at the beginning of a week or something else arbitrary that I make myself believe is significant. Yes I'm weird, shut up!

I'm looking forward to this term because I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. It's pretty dim still, but I can just make it out. The whole part-time degree thing seemed like a grand idea at the start. At the start I had no idea what I wanted a degree in. Thankfully I've figured it out as I've gone along. With 11 courses left, and all of them being core classes within my major, I almost feel like I might finish this degree within my lifetime. Fortunately, or unfortunately I will likely have all of my summers free as none of my classes are offered during those terms. LAME.

So tonight I'm going out and buying pens, paper, notebooks, etc. I've sorted through last term's things and tossed most of it. That was really difficult for me actually. This girl has more post-it notes than anyone in their right mind could possibly use in a lifetime of taking phone messages.

I'm trying not to stress myself out over this, but I know I will anyway. And two weeks after it starts I'll probably fall out of my routine and I'll be a mess and hate both classes. Hopefully I'll find a schedule that I can fall into and stay with though. So, here we go. Cheers to another round of classes and hoping that I don't stress myself out over silly things.
