Last week's post, after reading it, was very depressing, and after actually picking up the book and reading. It was not so bad. I guess I just had a bad case of nerves.
We had our first “official” week of school and I did not start on the right foot because I did not get the appropriate amount of sleep (because I procrastinated and didn’t start studying until 5pm) so by the time I left work and made it to class, I was exhausted.
Funny story – As I was about to leave work and head to campus to get some reading done before class, my boss asked me did I have my books in the car. After replying yes, he requested that I go get them out of the car and go over the cases with him!!!! At first I was like what????? Nevertheless I am so grateful that he took interest because he really help me understand the cases and I felt like, “Ok I think I can do this.” I felt like I comprehended the material and actually went to class with confidence.
I am becoming more confident that I will do well my first semester. Now that my mental state is getting better, I need to start focusing on my procrastination. This needs to be eliminated before next weekend. It is a problem that I am glad I am noticing now. At the beginning of the week I was thinking that maybe working and going to school is not the best thing for me, but I am wrong. I am learning a lot at work and all I really need to do is use my time wisely (and truthfully I am not).
OHHHH... This week has been interesting in the money department. I try to remain as discrete as possible because I do not want ANYTHING coming back to haunt me, but I can officially say I HATE THE FINANCIAL AID DEPARTMENT. I just want someone to explain to me how can I do everything in a timely (no EARLY) fashion, and every step of the way I have had issues. It came to a point this week that it distracted me from concentrating in a seminar that I was attending. Thank goodness I have a job making a little money or I would be up the street. The sad thing is that I still don't have my money and don't even know when I am going to get it. SMH.......
Lastly, a "blast from my past" came to town this weekend. It was a pleasant surprise to say the least. It made me aware of how I want a relationship, but how right now..... it would not be possible. How selfish would I be to try and start something now? I barely can find time during the week to eat dinner and then my weekends (should) consist of studying. It would be impossible.
Next weekend is Labor Day weekend and I wanting to use those THREE days to read ahead and get on the ball.
Wish me luck!!!
