The end is in sight

May 3, 2008

Where the hell have I been? This semester has flown by. It’s almost over already! Only about 2 weeks left and just in time because I’m on the verge of losing my mind. When am I going to share all the pictures of the crazies at my school?

 Somehow I picked classes with an extraordinary work load. I am behind in all my classes which to my horror I realized just HOW far behind last week. Despite working all day at school I come home and eat dinner, then work most nights until midnight and spend most of my weekend working,  I am still behind.  I have a huge research paper for English, an interview and report plus group project crap for business communications, I’m behind in math and need to catch up for the final exam in two weeks, and I have a book review for sociology on top of the regular reading I am supposed to be doing but haven’t.

This book for sociology is actually really interesting and has been an easy read. I hate reading, especially books, so for me to say that is pretty amazing. I think everyone in the U.S. should HAVE to read this. It’s about how Americans buy too much, have too much debt, work too much, and create the most insane amount of waste and pollution imaginable. Affluenza: The Al-Consuming Epidemic. The sad thing is the part that has touched me most is that I realized I havent’ spent anytime with nature in the past few years.  I started crying while reading and thinking about how much I was missing the connected feelings of being with nature. Whatever, I’m so fucking lame! And apparently still feeling emotionally unstable after stopping my medication.

We have new neighbors! Uugghhh. I think I might be having anxiety issues because we have new neighbors and I haven’t been sleeping good. But Fuck! That’s gonna be a long story. I have work to do and I neeeeeeeeed to get back to work on my book report.
