And so it begins...again.

Yes folks, its that time of the year again, when vacation ends and classes begin. I am usually not so forlorn about class time...I mean, I don't like it, but I can usually get through it by telling myself "ah, cmon, its only three and half months,...you can do it!" But last semester was sooooo horrible...oh where to begin, where to begin. Hmmm...maybe I shouldn't. Needless to say, last semester is one in which I hope I never have to repeat. There was one class in particular that had an impossible workload, and I felt that I sacrificed the work in my other classes just to stay on top of it. And I also felt I was a zombie at work...anything that required minute-to-minute thought processes usually ended up royally effed-up. And sleep? Well...that was just impossible. I got into the habit of going to bed about 10pm-ish, and waking up at 3am-ish, just to catch up on reading assignments.

So, even though Spring 09 promises to be a little less crazy, I am dreading tomorrow. But the good news is that I will have only one sit-on-my-arse-for-three-hours course; the other two are an online course and an independent readings. So....woot! Here's hoping I can both educate myself and have a life!
