Yeah. So. School. It starts up for me today, and I'm one big bundle of tangled emotions.

I'm rather excited about getting to see all my friends again, but it's tempered by nervousness about my scholastic performance. You see, my track record when it comes to grades is rather atrocious. I really can't afford to be wasting the money I spent on tuition this semester, but I greatly fear I will end up doing just that. Yes, that means those of you reading this who know me (and care) have full permission to deliver a good swift kick to my ass if I start lagging (babykitty1263, I'm sure you would be glad to take me up on this).

What I really find odd, though, is what I'm NOT feeling. Until I got into college, the thing I was always most nervous about at the beginning of school was popularity (i.e. my social life). Looking at it now, it seems a rather childish concern. Yeah, OK, I was a child, and I suppose in many ways I still am. But I'm still a little frightened by how much I've matured in the past three years. Well, more on that in person, if anyone's interested.

Now, to leave you with some words of wisdom...

"It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid, than to open it and remove all doubt."
