The Trials and Tribulations of a College Student

So I'm really no further into PoA than I was before...ok, well, that's a lie, I'm maybe one chapter further. I've been quite busy with work and class that I didn't really get a chance to get any further. Hopefully today I'll have some down time and I'll be able to get some more of it done. I really want to watch the second and third movies now, but I of course don't own them and don't want to spend money to rent them. Maybe online? I don't know.

I've been stressing out about school lately. See, as an English Education major, I have to apply for the College of Education (CoE) in the winter, and there are a lot of requirements that I have to get taken care of first. One of them involves having all of these classes out of the way, which is a lot more difficult than it sounds when you're trying to cram 5 years of schooling into 4. I'm stressed because I just found out that I may have to take an extra class this coming semester because it's required to get in. I've been trying to talk to my CoE advisor, but he's not really responding, so I'm kinda at a loss for what to do. I really need the extra time to work so I can pay rent, and having another class really isn't helping. I also need to get my grades up, and taking 18 credits is probably not the best way to go about that. GAH!

I want to eat something sweet. Yesterday Nate and I bought a cheesecake (way cheaper than making one) but we didn't get to eat it because it was frozen. I do want to make something though, something with fruit. That's one of the things I love about summer: fruit is in season, and you can make desserts from it that are both delicious and moderately healthy.

I've been thinking about it a lot, and I've decided that I really want to get back into writing. I'm taking a Creative Writing class this semester (it's a class I need for my theme), and I kinda want to get a head start. I must admit it's been a really long time since I've written anything, what with my abandoning fanfiction last year. I miss it a lot. I really love to write, I just never have any time to do it. I have always secretly wanted to be a writer, someone who could create one novel and never have to work again, but I always lose track of the story or lose interest before the second chapter. It's kind of a problem. Oh well, we'll see, I guess.
