Back-To-School Fun! (not)
Yeah, long time, no update. School starts for me in 9 hours. Oh hooray(not). I just checked my e-mail and I already have homework. Sigh. Let the fun times begin! This bites because I have a heavy courseload this semester. Reading Methods, Math Methods (the class I already have an assignment for), Social Studies Methods(I've been told that this class is the MOST work out of practically every TED course), Curriculum in Early Childhood, Language Arts Methods, and Art Methods. A nice 15-Credit semester for me, with TONS of work for each class, plus my field (i think 30-some hours in the classroom over the semester with about 10 projects to do). Somebody please explain to me why I pay this institution so much money to cause me so much misery? (Ha misery/Miseri...I'm so clever). I'm just going to do my best to not completely lose my mind over the next year. Yeah, well try anyway.
Soooo yeah. My back is all effed up. I had to go for an MRI two weeks ago i think? And I have a herienated (sp?) disk and it's causing bulging and spasming of all kinds in my back. Kinda makes it difficult to do....anything sometimes. I had to beg to go home early last week because every time I took a breath it felt like a knife was stabbing me in the back, and every time I tried to move it felt like it was twisting. So overall....not much fun. I'm down to taking on Saturday dance classes. And by taking class I mean not dancing at all. I'll probably just show up every now and then and attempt a step or two, but I don't feel like pushing myself any further than I have to. I have more physical therapy that I have yet to schedule. (Boo.)
I feel like I've been spoiled by this summer. It wasn't like oustanding in any one way or anything. It was just a nice, relaxing summer. I hung out with friends, went to the beach, a couple bars, helped Roper pick out her wedding dress!, and spent quality time with Matt. I just want to hold on to that feeling of not having to worry about a paper, or a project, or the final that will be half of my grade (yeah, every SINGLE one of my finals is worth 1/2 my grade. Don't even TRY to talk to me during finals week, or the week before lol) I want my biggest worry to be whether or not to go the bar tonight, or just stay in. If i should work an extra shift, or go play outside. I guess I'm just really resenting this growing-up stuff. It's not the same as it used to me.
I can't wait until next summer lol. I already have all of the days we have off marked in my planner. September 5, October 13, 14, Thanksgiving weekend, then Christmas. I'll try and take baby steps lol. One goal at a time. Make it through the first week without a breakdown, let's see how that goes...
