May-mester

May-mester

If it's possible, I think my summer may shape up to be just as horrible, if not worse than the spring. I just started may-mester. I'm taking a Hispanic culture course. My last class to complete my Spanish minor. I feel like my head is in a vice. The class is a "hybrid" meaning we go to class, but we're doing a lot of stuff online. I hate that the homework is due each evening by midnight. I often will leave homework half done to go out with friends or to just take a break and then get up a little early to do it before class. Can't do that with time limits. At least I didn't have as much homework tonight. Yesterday I probably spent twice as much time on the homework as I did in class... and I spend 3 hours a day in class! *sigh* Well, I guess I've already jumped in the water so I might as well take a deep breath and dive in as deep as the well of knowledge goes in this course. No turning back now since today was the last day to drop.

What's bad is that the class is keeping me from doing other things that I realllllly need to get done, like I still haven't gotten in contact with the people that are supposed to be hosting me for my internship starting next month. I have yet to pick up my room. (I HAVE to keep my room picked up at all times. Normally I operate just fine as long as there's a path through the mess. Because my room is the size of a shoe box, there is only a small path through the furniture WITHOUT junk on the floor.) I also really need to call some friends that I didn't get a chance to talk with much last semester because it was crazy. I'm going to try to do that on Saturday. I really need to spend some time with Greg this month too, since none of either of our friends are taking may-mester, it's just us here right now. Good time for us to bond some. Except neither of us has time with our classes! ARRRRGGGG!!! I guess I'm just going to have to make a point to NOT take a nap before I call the internship people tomorrow. I can't leave this week without making contact with them.

I need a break from life. Where is that pause button? Or maybe some ice cream will do... yeah. :-)
