I am now less than two weeks away from my (hopefully triumphant) return to the world of academia. Of course I am freaking the shit out. It has been so long since I was in school and when I did my undergrad, there was barely any research involved. I feel like I am so unprepared. There is also the fact that I have never once worked in an actual library and I have to assume that every other student in the program has. I am starting out way behind my peers (I assume).
Maybe it is because I am borrowing such a huge amount of money to do this that I am so scared. I didn't borrow anything for undergrad. It is terrifying to contemplate not succeeding.
In other news, better news, I am very happy with my relationship right now. Well, except for the fact that we are both poor and have dead end jobs and live with family members so there is no opportunity for real privacy. Living with family is a huge cockblock.
My interest in Bleach has risen a little this past week. I think it must be because I got the English edition of Color Bleach. Or because this week's chapter was actually decent. It is strange and nostalgic to feel this way, like reacquainting with an old friend. I really want the second character book, Masked. It has Shinji on the cover and I assume it covers Vaizard and Arrancar.
One of the good things that will come with starting school is that I am switching to part time for work. Money will be tight, that is for certain, but I think it will help my sanity. Even if I never have a weekend day off unless I specifically request it.
I really want to try to save enough money to go on the bus trip to NYC in November and take my boyfriend. I think it would be really awesome.
Mockingjay is almost here! I am so excited!
school,
