Per usual...I was looking back at my entries, realizing that I need to update more frequently:
Specifically, I was looking at my entries of last year and shocked at how busy I thought I was. I am far more busy now, and stressed. There are plenty of positives though, and I've learned more than I ever thought I was going to learn in just my first year. I'm excited about life [most days] and happy with my overall situation in Montana. I just wish my friends and family were closer and that there wasn't so much pressure to perform academically and professionally [and financially?] all the time--welcome to the real world?
I made a few entries like this last year and I found it quite helpful:
6 days until I owe Wendy 32 renderings for Costume Design 2*aye*
8 days until I fly home for a [short] Spring Break
40 days until House of Blue Leaves (my first official design for UM) opens
57 days until the end of the term
103 days until I turn 23! I hope I don't spend my birthday on a train...Heather ;)
161 days until my second year of grad school starts, *sigh*
Approx 780 days until I graduate with my MFA
