Hey all! Sorry I have not written for a while. I have been really busy since I got back last week from spring break. Between seeing friends and old teachers, eating home cooked meals and at my favorite restaurants, tutoring at my old high school, and sleeping in my own bed with my kitty, going back to school was not easy. Though the first week back felt like the longest week of my life, I am glad to say that I am now back into school mode. The first week back was stressful, but the stress practically disappeared on Tuesday when I finished my final philosophy test. I won't know how I did until Thursday, and though I doubt I aced it, I think I did much better than I did on the first two. Luckily, philosophy is all smooth sailing here on out with a few small reflection papers and a comprehensive reflection paper due the Tuesday of finals week. I usually do better on papers than tests, so I am not too worried about what lies ahead of me for the rest of the class.
Wednesday night I registered for classes for the fall semester of my senior year. Pretty crazy, huh? It seems like just yesterday my parents and I came to UP a week early so I could go on the Service Plunge a few days before Orientation. Next semester I am taking 12 credits in order to focus on my thesis, tutor at a local high school, and work on applying to teaching credential programs. The classes I am taking are American Lit before 1865, Life Span Development, Foundations of Education, and Dance. My senior thesis is worth one credit hour as well. I am very excited about my schedule because I am taking 100% major/minor/elective classes (my final gen ed class is theology, which I am taking in Salzburg) and I know all of the professors who teach my classes--and I like them all! However, the icing on the cake is that I do not have class Mondays and Fridays.
Tonight Moon and I went to Mio for sushi, and tomorrow Traci and I are going to Saturday Market, as we have finally been experiencing nice weather (not summer-like weather, but a lot warmer compared to typical Portland weather).
Happy April Fools Day!
