Crazy Week

Well, this has been a busy week. I had a lot of assignments this week. Our weeks start on Tuesday and go through Monday. This week, we had to read 3 chapters by Thursday, and write a comment about each one. By comment I mean 1 to 2 paragraph short paper. I'm so long winded that I always end up with 2 paragraphs. I always try to stay ahead and read the following week's chapters if I can. Last week I wasn't able to because we were working on our rough draft of our paper as well as our regular assignments. Then every week, we have to post a comment to at least 2 of our classmates postings about each chapter. Luckily, I don't have to have that completed until the last day of our week which is Monday. I also had a quiz in the middle of all this and continue to complete my paper. I am not behind on anything, which is amazing, and I'm not stressed at all! It's unreal! And I'm being completely honest. I am having a great time with this. I am really looking forward to my next class. I know it's going to get a lot more intense with that one, but I feel like I'm ready for it. I am still on track to recieve a 4 point for this class, and that is my goal for every class. I'm a little nervous about being able to do that because of the difficulty of the classes I have coming up. Not that this one wasn't difficult, but, it's not quite as intense as the upcoming classes. My next two are Psych classes, so I really need to do well in them since they pertain to my major. I know if I just stay committed, I will do fine.

I'm rewarding myself with a day off today since I completed SEVERAL assignments over the last 3 days. It is so nice to feel like I actually accomplished something that has some meaning. I haven't felt that way in a long time. Not that being a mother isn't rewarding, that's not it at all; this is just something that I am doing for myself and that has given me a positive attitude toward everything. I'm sure I will have my stressful times through this, but I know it will be worth it.
