The College Grind

So this school year started off pretty bad. Probably not any worse than last year, but not much better either. I didn't have to find new friends, which was a plus, but the homework load for the classes I'm taking seemed pretty intense. Then, less than two weeks into the semester my grandpa passed away. This upset me emotionally and it also threw me further off my hectic schedule. I was getting so far behind I thought I would never catch up. I worked pretty steadily for two weekends straight trying to catch up, and I finally felt like I had succeeded. This Thursday I had nothing pressing to get done and I did not feel the least bit guilty for taking the night off and watching a movie with Karen. (Which by the way, "Good Luck Chuck" is one of the worst films ever created.) However, I have fallen back into that place where I feel I am too far behind to catch up, so hopefully when I go back to studying I will feel like accomplishing a lot and get back to that relaxed feeling once again. But I don't count on it. I wish I was just a little bit less lazy, and then I wouldn't have to go on rants like this. I also wish my life was a little more exciting so my blog entries wouldn't be so boring, but maybe that's just asking for trouble.
