Back at school! Things are, for the most part, going ok.
The roommate thing is working out well, although one's bubbly personality makes it hard to remember she's not trustworthy, which sort of gnaws at me sometimes. Living with my best friend is awesome, and so far we've maintained enough space and time alone that it's not like anyone is too clingy or needing to escape the house.
There's a LOT of homework! Each class, each at least 1.5 hrs at a go, has given reading assignments or projects the first day. It's not incredibly hard but more of the time consuming genre. I haven't even started my volunteering yet and hopefully it will be lots of fun because I really like getting up at 8 or 9 on school days. My schedule allows for morning laziness that has always previously been allotted to weekends, and I'm also just a bit anxious to start. I've been trying to keep up on.
Socializing, as far as in class, has gone ok. I have people to sit with, sometimes by asking, sometimes by circumstance, but that's ok, I guess. J has left the ed program and A is in France, so I'm sort of trying to branch out with among the 25 people who have already developed their own tables of people since we'd all started the ed program freshman year. I hang out a lot with my best friend, if by living situation as much as going out, but it's been fun, and I've seen my boyfriend every day. It's been rocky but nice to see him, since I was sort of worried he'd be mauled by upper level chem and physics and I'd be swamped by coloring, lesson plans, etc. I guess there is still time for that.
I've decided to wear pajamas all day. Sooooo much to do. No sorority meeting for me, it's going to be a long one and I need to keep up on homework since I've got work (class, commute, work, drive back) on Friday and a concert on Saturday....Soooo much to do that I should get off elowel, haha.
