SoakingIn

What I talked about last time

Well, I'm finally getting around to writing my post that I mentioned and good news for you, it's going to be pretty short, I'm going to cover the basics.

1. School
School is definitely proving to be more of a challenge this year than last year. I have considerably more homework and harder classes. I wouldn't go so far as to say ConApps will be the death of me but it's certainly going to be a challenge. Then there's tutoring: Learning Center and Sydney (the girl I tutor). It's nice helping people because I feel good about myself and it keeps me from fully forgetting things. There's also graph comm, which I love. I have a blast with the kids and I can't believe I'm getting paid to goof off for 3 hours. My first DE II test is coming up and I'm really scared so in the next couple of days I will be working pretty hard to figure that stuff out.

2. Love
There is no denying that the last few weeks have been more difficult than either of us would have liked but that by no means says that I'm going anywhere. In fact, the fact that I can be upset and not want to quit says something for me. Truth be told, in the past if I had a problem I was liable to simply say "fuck it" and walk away. I have no desire to leave Zach in any way, in fact, the longer I can stay with him the better. No matter how unhappy he thinks he makes me sometimes, there is no comparison to the level of pure joy I get the majority of the time (hell, I'm smiling right now). He mentioned something the other day about us and a business after graduation which I won't go into here but sounded freaking awesome. =)

3. Friends
Since my classes are very clustered, I work, and I don't live in New Res it makes it kinda hard to see some of my friends. I get to hang out a lot with Katie which is pretty cool, not gonna lie, she's a great person. I also have lunch with Natalie every day (although I wish we could spend a little more time together sometimes). Zach is going out of town this weekend so I plan to use it to write my paper, teach myself DE, and hang out with people I normally can't get a hold of.

4. Cool things
Let's see what I can come up with for this section...
- I have an interview this Friday with Catiplillar
- For Delta Sig, I was voted second for homecoming queen nominee
- I have a pretty new business suit for Friday (I got to see my mom when I got it)
- I used my new tea thing for the first time today
- I have a surprise for Zach that I hope works out the way I planned
- I am trying to get involved with Tech for the Rose play this fall
- The Learning Center overpays me
- I'm sure there are more and who knows, maybe I'll put them on later

So, this turned out to be longer than expected but who cares.
