Summer's end

08.15.08 (1:11 am)   [edit]

I finally finished my horrible summer. No more physics. No more heavily mathematical classes EVER! You have no idea how excited I am about that. Now I can graduate in May too! Hooray! I really and truly have no idea how I escaped all that work with my sanity. Well, some would argue that I didn't. I've had my nose glued to my calculator for so long my English skills have flown out the door. I find that often times what I'm thinking will come to me in Spanish rather than in English. Which is bizarre. That happens all the time when I've been studying my Spanish, but I haven't been... in a while. So to fix that problem, over the next few days I'm going to read a lot in the book I picked up at the beginning of the summer but have had little to no time to read so far-- the Arabian Nights. It's been great so far. It is basically a large story book for grownups. I will probably also be writing around here.

I just got back from vacation. I deserved that. I went and played at a waterpark, shopped, went to the spa for a mani, pedi AND massage, ate some awesome food and just chilled. Great times with my housemate, Tink. 

I have the rest of this week and next week to prepare myself for school. I've got a lot to do and I haven't even finished making my to-do list yet! I won't be sitting around too much, that's for sure! However, treating myself will continue because I intend to only set my alarm on the days on which I have early morning appointments. Alarms and I aren't the best of friends. I would worry about someone who did enjoy their alarm though. 

It's raining outside. That's a miracle around here-- an August rain. 

Anyway my summer is a total blur to me. I think I've blocked it out of my memory as a protective mechanism. (I did learn something in those silly intro to psyc classes after all!)
