so, clearly i fail at updating this thing. i made the terrible mistake of thinking that college might get easier after spring break (which was lovely, incidentally), when of course that would violate one of the cardinal rules of college: it hardly ever gets any easier, and when it does it usually gets much harder again very quickly.
i also tragically fail at time management, so i've been doing terrible things like playing card games for hours instead of doing my reading. this weekend i went to san diego, which was fabulous. san diego is gorgeous and laid-back and pretty much exactly what i imagined southern california would be like before i encountered the horror that is los angeles.
unfortunately, we were so taken with the glory of the beach and the hot tub that very little homework was completed, which is pretty much a disaster for me. i have all kinds of research papers and projects and midterms and an awfully small amount of time in which to do them. currently i'm a bit stressed out because i have a very imposing stack of library books which i have to transform into a research paper on something called "socialist realism," and to be frank i'd just really rather not.
i guess in general i've been having a bit of a crisis lately because i'm worried about my major and what i'm going to do with my life and all of that nonsense. this year has been great, but i haven't made much progress toward a major and i haven't gotten involved in any really meaningful way. so now i'm panicking and trying to plan out my sophomore year so that i can accomplish both of those goals. i suppose this is a sign of how boring and nerdy college has made me.
you stay classy, livejournal.
