Up for Air

It has been an intense previous weekend and week studing for two back to back tests - the first of the semester. First tests are always fun because you really have no idea of the testing "flavor" of the particular instructor, so you have no idea what to really expect. I studied very hard and got an A- on both tests. I felt like I did better, but it is what it is. Since it was test week, both instuctors let us out of class right after the tests, so there was no assigned homework or chapters to study. I had planned to take the weekend and write a paper that is due in 3 weeks, however, between picking up a few extra weekend shift hours and just plain laziness, the paper is still unwritten. I do feel that I connected with family and friends and that is more important at this point anyway. The paper will wait for me.

Tonight, I calendered all my upcoming tests and assignment due dates, and it seem that I will not have anymore "free" time for the next 2 months. I guess it is good that I came up for some air before diving back into it over my head this week. My current house sold, and I have to be out on October 31st, so I will also have to moving the end of next month. Not fun when you are in the middle of a semester. Oh well. Time to strap it on...

Today was the first day of my 13th year of living in Blackfoot. I was just 18 when I moved here. Wow. I can't believe I'm still here...
