Goodbye free time, it was nice knowing you.

So, my college semester started on Monday. From now on, I will feel entitled to whine about how much studying I have to do, how much my books cost (Hey, I had to pay $100 for an access code to an online workbook! Doesn’t that just fill me with joy and happiness?) and how Organic Chemistry is going to kill me.

And about how I don’t even feel all that well-rested from summer break because all I did was work, and how I don’t even have anything to show for that because all my money went to paying for things like $100 access codes and, occasionally, tacos.

It hasn’t even been that long since summer started. Okay, it’s been a good three months, but three months just doesn’t feel as long when you’re almost 19 (hey, my birthday is next Saturday!) as it does when you’re 6.  I wanted to get so much more done this summer than I did- I wanted to read more, do more, spend more time with my friends, but fall just kind of crept up on me.

Oh, well, it’s not like I actually hate school. In fact, I’m actually kind of looking forward to this semester, despite my three lab classes- hey, it means I can spend more time on things like doing experiments and writing lab reports and being science-y and less time writing detailed analyses of modern literature (and I do like literature and books, you should see my bedroom- more on that later- but it’s not really relevant to my major).

But it’s only been four days and I already wish my friends were back and I would even go back to working 40 hours a week if only I didn’t have to come home and do homework and reading and pay for textbooks and tuition and go to lectures…

Viva el verano…. if only.

I already miss summer =( But I agree and will complain as well about the expensive books you have to buy; $150 is not cheap x.x
Happy belated birthday! I would have commented earlier if I had more free time; school drains me sadly x.x
Let’s hope the holidays come more quickly =)
