The spring semester of 2012 is underway, and I couldn't be more excited. All of my professors are great and challenging. So far no complaints, just renewing my focus on what's important right now - my education.
Things are going well between Kayla and I. We both work part time jobs while in school so over Christmas break we arranged to stay at our dormitory, which was challenging given that we don't have access to a kitchen besides the microwave. So Ramen noodles, Chef Boyardee, and fast food pretty much made up the daily diet.
My main goal for this semester is to earn a 4.0 gpa followed closely by my other goal of focusing more intensely on my courses. Yeah it's never easy. While visiting with my Priest back home over break he gave me some great advice for the next semester. It's only 16 weeks. That's right. No I'm n0t graduating with my degree this semester, but in May I will be 16 weeks closer to my ultimate goal of earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Meteorology.
My work out routine has suffered some this week. Getting oriented to classes grabbed my attention, so I have a choice to make for the rest of the week. Plan is to catch up and get back into working out tomorrow prior to going to work in the evening.
So that's the semester as it stands! I've decided not to put a lot of stock into my first perceptions of a course until after midterms. It's easy to really enjoy a class while the work is just getting going. In the coming months there'll be projects, papers, labs, and exams. The usual semester stuff. Hopefully I'll get to keep blogging my journey through school, and life in general.
Until next time!
