So I guess considering that I spent nearly 24 hours on campus in the past three days, it shouldn't surprise me that I'm so bombed out and depleted today. Yup, all day Wednesday and Thursday, followed by half the day yesterday spent on campus doing homework. This year is already kicking my ass, and I've only gotten one meeting for each class in yet!
But, I love my classes. I was telling Ben that, while I had to buy a HUGE quantity of books (five for one classs) it didn't really bother me cause they all seem like books I would read on my own. Maybe I wouldn't have gotten four different books with the same title (The Origins of WWII) but Engaging the Muslim World is one you would find on my bookshelves. Now that I'm in my major classes, and in classes I really enjoy, I don't mind doubling my personal library for school.
The one thing that blows is my homework load. Yup, should have seen that coming from a six class schedule. Poli Sci is a really heavy reading major, and most teachers don't have a lot of day to day assignments. Most are based on the Midterm, Final, and Term Paper model, with no other grades going in. Tough, but whatever.
All in all, school year has started out good. Tough, but good.
