Grind
Lately, I’ve felt stressed out and overwhelmed. I feel like things are never quite put-together enough at the apartment for me to work and have time to play. It’s like I’m always straightening something up or rushing to get something done or trying to find food to eat. I think most of this will ease up as I start to settle into my weekly schedule, especially as I incorporate work into it so I’m not constantly stressed about when I’m going to work or whatever. It’s also nice because we have a whole-day meeting for Interp & Communication so I don’t have any reading to do in either of my Tuesday classes. This should help me work Intercultural Communication into my regular reading schedule.
I still like my classes well enough. The history one is especially great, at least, it’s good discussion and thought provoking and far more like what I expected graduate school to feel like. I’m hoping that intercultural comm. will feel the same, but who knows.
We have a PS3 now, and I found Animal Crossing: City Folk really cheap for the Wii at Blockbuster. So now I have Little Big Planet and Animal Crossing to keep me good and distracted. Also, using the free browser on the PS3, I can play last.fm radio over the TV. Pretty baller. Should help me get some studying done, hopefully.
