The panic is setting in!
So, this semester (which starts a week from tomorrow... eek!) I am tackling 17 (count them, 17!) units of classes I was avoiding. Stupid, right? But I've been reading the Harry Potter books and, as stupid as it might sound, I am just going to channel Hermione Granger. After doing tons of housework today, I devised a schedule that, if I follow it, should make my life much easier and this semester less stressful!
Monday:
- Psychology 8-9:20am
- Trig 3:45-5:05pm
Tuesday:
- laundry
- online classwork for LIB 107 & 110
Wednesday:
- Psychology 8-9:20am
- Trig 3:45-5:05om
- Geology 7-10:05pm
Thursday:
- Geology Lab 9:30am-12:35pm
- Communications 7-10:05pm
Friday:
- Do all homework
- Relax
Saturday:
- Weekend chores (dust, vacuum, clean bathroom)
- Wash one car per week (mine, mom’s, dad’s)
- Relax
Sunday:
- Do any and all required readings for the following week
- Study for any tests
- Relax
Basically, I am not looking forward to this semester too much, but at the same time, I am looking forward to the chance to push myself, to succeed in something that seems impossible. All this to be an Otter!

I can do this. I know I can. I'll just probably need a lot of encouragement and stress management strategies to survive. Eye on the prize will be my motto!
