Another week down...

Well, I made it through another week. Barely. This semester is most definately a lot more stressful than last semester. No contest. Plus this semester seems longer. I know that it's not because both semesters are 16 weeks. However this one seems longer for a few reasons:
1. There aren't any vacations in the middle of it.

With first semester, our first weekend down here was a three day weekend. We had Veteran's Day off. Thanksgiving. Then by the beginning of December, we were done. There were days off. Breaks to catch up on sleep and work. This semester is dragging. We didn't get off President's Day or Lincoln's Birthday-holidays recognized by the federal government and other schools. But not ours. Come on! At the very least give us President's Day. And yeah, yeah, we got spring break. But still, all the days off this semester grouped together..It's not the same.

2. I don't like my classes.

Yeah I'm not going to lie about it. I really don't like my classes this semester. They are a lot harder and taking them together is kind of overwhelming sometimes. Formulas, math, theories, money, computers. Sometimes my brain feels dead after a long day of class and/or studying. That's why I really hate that question that comes up from those ladies at church: How's school? How are your classes?
My response? 'Oh they are good. Things are good.' But in reality, they aren't always so good. I just don't really want to get into details with them about it and trying to explain why things aren't good. I can't expect them to really understand, so it's just easier to pretend things are peachy keen.

At least I am about to start my last full week of classes. Then two days next week and then finals start. So 7 more days of classes, and 4 days of finals. Then it's FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
