finally getting into a routine.
I feel like a real human being. It is wonderful. I actually have time to paint and read and enjoy my classes. I ended up dropping my Genetics lab, which was disappointing because I thought it was really interesting, and we were just starting some really cool experiments. All in all it was totally beyond me, and once again my expectations for myself were impossible to meet.
While everything I was brought up to think and do points otherwise, I can finally convince myself to slow down and enjoy the moment. Why was I always told that ambition and getting ahead was so important? Getting ahead of what or who? I no longer consider my self this superhuman being that can take on a bijillion tasks at once, and really, why should I want to be? i guess I have just been reallizing my limits and my needs. Anyone else feeling the same way?
By the way, my dreaded Organic Chemistry class is sooo cool. My teacher is this crude-humoured woman in her late 30's that is constantly making remarks like, "now that resonance structure looks DAMN good!" and relates the dispersion of negative charges on compounds to the wafting of farts. Sometimes it gets pretty juvenile, but i love it, I really end up laughing through half of lecture every day.
Also, I have a new cousin. My aunt and uncle returned a couple of weeks ago from Jamaica with their newly adopted daughter, Sophia. She's 4 yrs old, though Barry and Michelle have been attempting to adopt her for the last 3 and half years. I get to meet her for the first time this Sunday and I am verry excited. I love the kiddos.
