Making up
Sunday, August 27, 2006
Well, week 1 is over (all three days of it) and weekend 1 is coming to a close as well. I haven't gotten much accomplished other than finishing the book, Saturday, for my English & American Lit class. With three English classes, I'm having serious difficulty separating one from the other, especially since there are a large number of people in all three with me. On one hand, that is kinda cool, since we will probably form a pretty tight-knit group, but on the other hand, I may get bored quickly that way. There are a few people I already loathe having a class with, but hopefully I will be able to ignore them as much as possible. We'll see about that.Other than read Saturday, I have been unable to stay awake while attempting to get any other assignments done. I also had trouble with that while reading Saturday, but not as much. I'm pretty sure that I'm making up for all the sleep I didn't get while I was home having a bit too much fun with Ben and all that. I also think that sleeping is the best way for me to ignore all the things I don't want to think about....missing home, missing Ben, Paul, Lara, and Pinehurst, insecurities about the coming semester and season, and the fact that I have 47 more days here before I'll be back home for Fall Break.
All that, and sleeping is pretty good procrastination from doing stupid assignments, like reading a 15 page "introduction" to a 40 year chunk of time that is ridiculously condensed and summarized to fit into those 15 pages. Another factor of today's lethargy is almost certainly partially attributed to the overcast 73 degree weather here in Omaha. I like the temperature, but there's pretty much no sun whatsoever.
Tomorrow is going to be physically and mentally draining, so hopefully I can get myself in gear and get my homework (for tomorrow at least) done, so that I can relax a little tonight and get to bed at a decent hour. The schedule...
5:00am ish - Wake up and get ready
5:30 am - Meet in Gallagher for practice (Inside? No one knows for sure. Ridiculous.)
7:30 am - Breakfast with the team whenever practice ends?
9:30 am - Orgo
10:30 am - English & American Lit
11:30 am - Lunch with Cat
12:15ish - Return two books to the bookstore (because I'm an idiot and I already own them together in one book.)
2:30 pm - Orgo Lab (Professor unknown, since apparently Dr. De La Cruz may or may not be teaching this semester.)
5:20 pm - Run to Training Room as soon as lab is over for my Physical, or part of it
6:00 pm - Middle Eastern World with Calvert
8:30 pm - Back to Davis for dinner, homework, and sleep
Yea, I really need to get my homework done...tomorrow's and as much of Tuesday's as I can since I'm probably going to want to pass out when I get home tomorrow night.
46 days, 23 hours, 9 minutes until I'm back home.
