So I'm sitting here again in the library. My "home away from home". I kid with my friends that my goal is to be on a first name basis with all the staff by the end of the year.
Not really. Ok, maybe.
I just finished my paper that compared and contrasted the Cathedral of St. Basil in Moscow with the St. Ignatius Chapel here at Seattle University. Gah, that paper was NOT fun to write. But it's done.
I had another long day today. Got up at four, met my new carpool buddies at SPU at 5:15, jumped from there over to do an LLAB and we worked on Troop Leading Procedures. Went to my Pre-Professional Health Seminar at 8:30.....and it was BOOOOORRRRRRIIIIINNNNNGGGGG. Just a few Physician Assistants talking about how to go to PA school. I was not in the mood to listen to it for some reason.
Left there and went to the library where I met up with Rachel. She and I have been working on papers since then (it's now 7, so that's what? almost 10 hours?). Granted, I had a two hour break when I went to Military Science class over at UW. That was fun, my NCO is a SF guy and the coolest, funniest SF guy I've ever met/seen. He's just cool.
Got back over to SPU, met back up with Rachel and then was joined by another girl in my class named Kelly who is from California. I call her Amazon, she's about 6', nordic and very "classy" but down to earth. We sit next to each other in the art class and have a similar sense of humor. So we all got together and had a "writing" party.
We also got hushed by the librarians because we were getting too goofy. Tehehe!
Tomorrow I gots a APFT at 6am. Sweet. My muscles are KILLING ME tonight thanks to yesterday so this will be rocking.
What else? I can't really say anything exciting has happened here in academia. Just working through school and trying to remember to eat, which I discovered yesterday was the reason why I was so "fuzzy headed" and weak yesterday evening. I was at school until about 10 that night, but I got a break when I left the library around 3 and went to go take a nap in the collegium. The nap never happened because I couldn't get my brain to shut down, so instead I got up and started working on Russian. Then one of my new friends, Jessica (who I first thought was super shallow and snotty, but turns out isn't) came over with food and I was like - OH YEAH! I have food too! So I made my Pad Thai and poured a cup of coffee (the Collegium has a coffee pot. Thank. God.). You'd be proud Dad, I hadn't had coffee in three days by that point. I can't explain it but the minute I sipped my coffee and took a bit out of my sandwhich I felt so renewed. I also spent a good hour just unwinding and talking with Jessica, until we both had to leave for Chemistry (we're in the same class)....it was nice :)
*rereads post*
Yup. My life is bland haha.
Bland!! Let me tell you about bland!
ReplyDeleteSounds like your doing well and staying busy. Hows Chem. doing? Hope its starting to click.
Can't talk now. BUt will comment more later
I can't help but wonder about the Ausburgers event. Sometimes I think I suffer just a bit myself.
ReplyDeleteSo, you wonder now why I tell you to eat!!! and eat well!!! You can not expend energy without replacing it. And if you don't replace it you don't have it. simple math. Ha!
Happy that you've found some partners to work with. It's important. Also, I like your goal of knowing all the faculty, sounds like fun.
It's morning and I better go drink my tea. Love you.
Sounds like you're having a blast. Definitely makes my days look dull in comparison.
