I rarely ever write something plain on this blog, so I thought I might do just that by sharing about my weekend. I got two major papers done on Friday and Saturday (which gave me wicked cabin fever) so I spent the rest of the weekend just chilling out. I went to go see a good movie with my cousin over in Richmond, and my parents ended up coming to have dinner with me and the relatives at a place just down the street from my house. So I really cannot complain - a fair amount of work to do but plenty of space to prepare for this new week.
This being the final week of the Fall quarter, people are beginning to stress out because of all the papers and finals that are hitting them in the face. I for one have no voice whatsoever among them because I am taking slightly easier classes, so I am caught up - only one final to prepare for, which evidently is in nine days (no sweat!). So as everyone shifts into panic mode, I am oblivious and unable to complain about anything. Which will probably make me a pretty lonely person up here since I am surrounded by a "system of stress" for the next week and a half!
Let the countdown to temporary freedom begin!

ReplyDeleteThis week, I have two finals, a research paper, a group presentation, a short, six-page paper, an interview for class, an IEP meeting (special ed meeting with parent with a 12-page write-up), 40hrs of my job, and around 7 1/2 hrs of commute.
After reading your post, I actually think I want to see you dead. :)
With all that free time you should go jogging and feed the homeless. Don't be like the guy in the Gospel of Luke who put his feet up and thought about all that he had. To which God said, "Today your soul will be required of you." Redeem the time.
