take the time
man, i was talking to a friend of mine today at lunch and the subject of second-semester-ness came up. she complained that although she had slacked off some, she still didn't have much free time because of all the college and scholarship stuff she's been doing. i complained that i'm actually doing more work this semester because all of the classes that i can slack off in don't require any work anyway, and i'm actually doing more college/scholarship stuff now than i was. of course, it's still minimal compared to some of my other friends, but it struck me that i'll probably have much greater success than they will. of the few things i have done, almost all of them are big, and my chances of not making it are rather low. it kinda made me feel bad that it's so easy for me, and so hard for other people, but i suppose all the work i put into high school previously is what's making it so easy now.
of course, that's not to say i'm not working hard. i really need to finish my correspondence courses before they expire, and that's in almost exactly a month. i predict that it will be necessary to rush it and blow off the rest of the assignments, but i'm almost positive it's credit only, so as long as i pass...i should be able to pass both of their finals right now anyway, so i think i'll be ok. gov and eco at that level are mostly common sense or review of stuff we've already learned.
happy valentine's day to all, and i hope you've got less to do than i.
