Finally, I have a minor break from this week. I've been working nearly non-stop since Sunday. Genetics oocupied most of Sunday and Monday, while Chemistry took over the second half of Monday until 8AM this morning. In all, I got about 4 hours of sleep between Sunday morning and my Chem Test, I was running totally on caffiene. It was looking ( Read more... )

Barely two weeks left in the school year. It's noon and I'm already finished with class for the day. It's one of the few rewards for having early morning classes. I'll definitely miss the free afternoons next semester, but considering 3 days a week my classes will start at 11, I'll be fine with it. That is assuming my problem with my Physics ( Read more... )

Yesterday, I traded homework time for fishing time. Peter brought back a couple poles and supplies so Sunday afternoon, we decided we'd head down to Taylor Lake and see what we could get. We moved slowly around the lake, trying different spots. We could see some pretty nicely sized fish swimming pretty far out. After about 30 minutes, Peter ( Read more... )

I'm glad this week is finally over. Not that it's been terrible, but I've had far too much to do. Tests in Spanish, Interpersonal, and Genetics have taken up a lot of my time. Not to mention my Genetics Problem set and scheduling for next semester. Everything was going pretty smoothly until today. I stayed up late last night studying for ( Read more... )

Spring Break's just about over and I'm back at Taylor. Jim and I showed up around 3 after dropping Nick off at Ball State and navigating the backroads, trying to find a "shortcut." Peter was here, asleep, when we arrived and Caleb showed up a few minutes later, but since then no one has appeared. In a brief moment of productivity, I put all my ( Read more... )

Jim and Caleb spend the night Thursday. Friday, I dropped Jim off at the airport, cause the lucky guy is going back to Florida for break. Afterwards I dropped Caleb off at Wheeler Mission downtown for his weekend homeless experience. Around 8, I found out that Jim's luck had run out. His, and nearly every other, flight to Florida got postponed ( Read more... )

Spring Break is finally here. It's felt like a logn two months since J-term Break. My handicapped parking pass has run out, but it's kinda a good sign considering I'm walking again. Everybody but Fredrickson and I have left. It kinda feels like the end of the year last year but not quite. All the doors are closed and everyone's gone, but my ( Read more... )

My first post in over a month. Wow, I've sat down multiple times intending to write, but life's been more uneventful than usual. I guess a broken leg will do that to you. I'm finally healed, kind of. I can walk again, and after a few days practice, without a limp. I'm still struggling a little bit because of the muscle atrophy. (We measured, ( Read more... )

I've been on the crutches for a little over two weeks. The Doc says my leg is healing pretty well and life's falling into somewhat of a routine. I dropped Fit For Life for the semester - something tells me it's just not the semester do to a weekly exercise routine and run 1.5 miles. The 8 and 9 AM classes are having their way with me; I'm ( Read more... )
