summer, part 1.
So here's the story.
I'm taking ochem 112A this summer.
It's going to eat up all of my time.
Notice... I said, "all," not "most of," not "a considerable amount of..." I said ALL. With a capital A-L-L.
So please don't get all sensitive on me if I don't return your calls, if I don't IM you as much, if I don't return your myspace comments or messages. For the next three weeks, my life has been handed over. Don't try to comfort me, because then I'll talk to you and I won't stop talking... trying to do anything else but what I'm supposed to be doing... which is making an honest effort in this class. I'm about to dominate this thing. And I'm sacrificing my social life for it. Consider this my contract.
Thank you, all. It's been nice knowing you, it's been nice messing around and ignoring my studies... but I'm getting sick of myself. And it's time for me to fix these other aspects of my life before I attend to other things. It seems that my first year of college, I stabilized myself spiritually. My second year of college, I stabilized myself socially. Third year starts now. And I'm working to stabilize my academics.
I was sitting in ochem lecture today, and I can actually say that I learned something. 2.5 hours sitting in a lecture hall. 4 hours of lab in the morning. The rest of the day goes to homework and studying. There are three exams in the class. There are three weeks of instruction. One exam per week, every Thursday. One chapter per day. Yeah. Please don't speak to me.
It had to be by divine intervention that I passed all my classes last quarter. But I'm tired of just doing enough to pass. I am capable of doing better than just passing. I've found a target, and I'm finally motivated to hit it. I'm going to change my major for sure, and I've calculated my next two years of college. I can do this.
And I will.
On other things. Something's been bothering the hell out of me, but I'm putting my life on hold. With that along with it.
