Well Its really earlier in the morning and I have finally made a decision about some things this sesmter.
I haven't done much updating in my life. So perhaps its finally time to do one for all of you out there that read this.
I am currently going to college with and english major that is tearing out my hair. I have had a hectic start and middle to this semster. I wrote my first and second papers for Orgins of Western Lit (Dr Woods hates me). I have rewritten them and rewritten them for my professors enjoyment. And yet I still haven't gotten back a grade on any of them. Its frustrating me to no end. Currently I am working on another rewrite for him (Iliad paper TITLE: A Warrior's Mantle: Siginficant objects of war in the Iliad). Iam half way through it and my 7 page paper is turning out to be a neverending paper trail of mubbling analysis.
My Poetry is doing great. I took my Mid-term essay test and got a B+ on it. i was so happy cause it was about the same time that I got back some of my flow and vocabulary that I must have mis-placed somewhere over the summer. I rarely read for this class simply because my Professor usually covers all the poems worthy of talking about in class. the papers in this class don't require much in the way of research and extensive analysis like Origins does.
My jazz class is great aswell. I love my teacher this semester. She is one of the dance teachers that everyone usually ends up watching at the side-lines just to see what she is doing next. Her routines are creative and fun but her workout sessions in every class is like the torture session from hell. Sit-ups push ups stretches that leave me limping and groaning the next day. Even now I am sore and my back is screaming for pain killers.
I had to drop my tap and russian classes. the hectic level at which my english classes are taking me is not allowing me to sleep much less learn how to become like Fred and Ginger or speak in a language that I'll never get to use. Oh well perhaps dropping Russian now will allow me to enjoy this semster more rather than feeling like a dry washcloth that some is still trying to ring out water from (bad simlie but I don't care its 7am and I am tired).
James ( boyfriend) is wonderful to me. He lets me rant and rave when I need to and he understands what I am going through this semster. We havent had any major fights since the beginning of the semester. I wish i could see him more and ucddle it might help my stress level but I can't have everything. I love him and thank him often for helping me and supporting me.
I got a new kitten (Imeptuous). He is so cute and he is going to get so big. I have had him for about a week now and my other cat (Juliet) is slowly begining to make friends with him. they are both calico kittens Juliet is orange, black, and white with green eyes , Impetuous id orange(amber) stripped with white and has these amazing amber eyes. They both are my babies for now.
Well that is pretty much everything that is weighing me down this semester. Perhaps I will give another update after thanksgiving or christmass. It all depends on how much time I have to complete other things in my life.
