"welcome to 2nd year!" .... oh, bite me.

I'm drowning. and we're only in week 5? and I'm thinking of adding another 3 years to this?

I must be, clinically, certifiably, totally, without a doubt, 100%, seriously freaking
insane.
Got my big project assigned in Civil Pro today - worth 40% of my overall mark. Fail this, fail course. And it's teamwork, which I hate with a burning passion. I can...do this? Right.

I'm also very lost in Corporate -- it's not even funny. Well, not actually lost, really, as I'm just bewildered - very different style of teaching than what I've grown accustomed to - that class is actually tough. I'm guessing Intellectual Property will be, too, but I have yet to make it to a class for some reason. (Somehow, 2pm on a Monday doesn't agree with me? Yeah, I know it doesn't make any sense - it's not really making sense to me either....)

Actually, this whole thing has gotten me right freaked. I'm even thinking of un-installing MSN on my home computer, putting in long hours over at the school instead of trying to concentrate at home, stuff like that. But when I say I'm un-installing MSN....oh boy. You know the situation is dire then.

What else has got me bugged out? Oh yes. Going home for Thanksgiving this weekend. For the first time in .... oh, a very long time .... I'm lying to my mother. Willfully. It's stressing me out & leaving a nasty feeling in the pit of my stomach, but what can you do when she's told you she doesn't want you coming if you don't travel up on the Saturday? But you can get a ride, which normally costs 85.19$, for 25$, on the Thursday? And, if by travelling up on the Thursday, you get to see your best friend from high school whom you haven't seen in exactly a year? (who's also willing to drive you the last leg home, for free, and keep you until Saturday so you don't get in trouble? Man, words fail to describe how much I adore this girl).

And besides, if you complied with her request to travel up on the Saturday, it means pretty much less than 24 hours at home - and oh, come on, 85$ for 24 hours is just a bit steep in my books. So I'm doing it. I'd rather pay the 85$ (going back) plus 25$ for a proper four-day weekend than 85$ for just 24 hours. Which, I just realized, I don't have to spend more than 24 hours with my family in any case (it's a really long story as to why I don't actually want to spend any more time than necessary with them, and one that doesn't really bear repeating).
Oh, this is working out perfect....really. I can't wait to see my friend, it's been far, far far too long.... :-)

PS: remind me to do my laundry tomorrow & also to buy a disposable camera for the weekend. Fall in the country = breathtaking.

Teamwork is only good when your team actually WORKS. I like teamwork in the sense that I'm with my friends. But I hate teamwork because I end up doing all the work, or my team members spent about 5 minutes on their work.

Thanksgiving isn't my favorite holiday. Family gatherings never run good with me.

If I uninstall MSN, that constitutes as insane with my friends, since I always have it on and love to chat.

Good luck with all the work
