The semester is winding down... so that means now the pressure is on. And I'm just not in the mood. I guess it's good that I start out so on top of things and with such ridiculously high standards for myself, because no matter what I say I'm gonna do, I end up slacking off at least a little more and more towards the end. So the higher I start out, the higher I end up... even if it is a lot less input than before. That make sense? Ay. I am really going to miss microbiology. I have put so much work into this class... I mean studying for lecture and studying for lab are completely different things. They were like two separate classes. I've put hours into labwork after classtime, I've spent hours with my TA reviewing, I've even had little reviews with my buddies from class. This is in addition to my rigorous studying steps. But like I was saying today, I feel like I get a lot out of it. I really have a different, and better appreciation of lab work and microorganisms and food processes... so many things. I also made a few good friends in the class. Hopefully we'll be in nursing classes together. That's only two months away! As for my other classes, I'm ready to be done with weight training, and self defense... well I like that class, I just don't like showering at school and carrying clothes and shoes with me everywhere. I'm done with psychology and CFD... and thank GOD I'm done with physiology. Of course I'm done with these officially after the finals mid-December. My brain is done right now though. I just picked up this "I don't really care anymore" attitude and I don't mind it. Straight A's in college is apparently a rarity. So I can't expect to always have it, right? I have to figure out where I stand. I think it's still possible, but I really feel the weight of everything taking its toll on me. People tell me I look tired and sleepy and stressed... not good! I need to look pretty and spunky! Hah. Yeah right. Anyway, I'M GOING TO VEGAS! TWO MORE DAYS. Omigosh I need it. Happy Turkey day if I'm not back... 8)
