spring 2009, week 2
it's been about a week and a half since i started. i'm starting to get the feel that my class is pretty competitive. during breaks, a lot of people are just pouring over their books. i don't because 1. i lack sleep and need a brain break from all these lectures and labs and all and 2. that book is freaking heavy. i refuse to carry it.

i realize it's nice not to stress. maybe some of these girls have a reason to wig out - maybe once they get home, they have to cook dinner for their family, take care of their kids or their grandfather, or go to work because they need to support themselves. it's nice not to HAVE to stress.

we start most of our lessons off with an "inspirational thought" and prayer. it's nice and makes me glad i chose here. $8,500 a quarter to get prayer? it'll be worth it. :)
