Neglect

Why, yes, it has been a long time. I make no excuses other than the usual...busy, lazy, take your pick. Let's move on, shall we?

Classes started this week. I have a heavy load this semester, with lots of reading.* I'll be camped out at the library more than usual. Well, make that libraries, because I intend to haunt the Law Library in addition to the Main Library this semester. I'll be doing research on legal cases from the early statehood days. Good times, good times.

Yesterday, I was a little too ambitious in the backpack department...as in, how much weight I could carry around all day. I almost fell off the bus when I stepped up on it and the pack shifted, pulling me backwards. That was so smooth I can't even stand it. So I'm going to have to keep my laptop at home and pare down the number of books I take on my "full days" of Tuesday and Thursday.

* Unnecessarily, I might add, since I'm already going to be graduating with extra credits. The only reason I have inflicted this on myself is so I can get tons of awesome learny goodness crammed in during this, my last year of school. (Unless I do grad school.) After all, when you're full time, extra hours do not mean extra tuition and fees, so the only costs are books and sanity.

Anyway, after this semester I will have all the requirements complete for one of my majors, and only one more class required for the other. Next semester will be the completion of my foreign language requirements, and that will be all she wrote...and then I'll have to grow up again and like get a job or something. My second childhood is nearing its end...the second adulthood looms on the horizon.
