Back To School!!

"Back to school. Back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool. I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight. Oh! Back to school... back to school... back to school. Well, here goes nothing." - Billy Madison 


It doesn't even phase me that summer school JUST ended, haha. Fall semester starts on Monday, wooo hooo! I'm so excited! There are very few people in my immediate circle of friends that are as excited or are excited period as me regarding school. (Maybe I should change that. . . my inner circle I mean. Shouldn't I surround myself with other motivated people?) This semester is going to be a challenge for me, and that should probably scare me, but it doesn't. .  yet anyway, ask me in two weeks. Although I couldn't get into a science course dammit!, I was lucky enough to snag five classes, including two honors. Oh, by the way, I just got accepted into my school's the honors program. Hell yah! The privileges afforded upon completion of the required honors units are quite handsome, so it feels great to have been accepted. More on the honors program later. 

*Aahumm* Back to my excitement. I bought all of my books last month, and have even contemplated getting a jump start on reading the texts. It sounded like a great and proactive idea, but I quickly changed my mind when I remembered that many times a professor/course will start on a random chapter :( That idea went down the drain. . . along with my diet, but that's a different story. I did flip through the textbooks to get more of an idea of what to expect though. 

School AND work five days a week should be interesting, challenging, fun, hard, draining, rewarding, frustrating, etc. but I know I can and will maintain my 4.0 gpa! Wish me luck!

  1. I am laughing because I feel the same way. Except in my case I started reading the lab book already. My daughter called me a nerd but all I can think about is how much easier that will make the semester's beginning. Plus it was actually very interesting. I am so excited for school to start too!
