Headlights pointed at the dawn.

I'm a 24 25 year old student and this blog is about my adventures as I go back to college and do my best to love each day.

Super-super-super-Senioritis?

Woody just made me breakfast before I have to go to class today. Delicious and sweet!

I don't want to go to class today. I don't want to go to class, ever. W has a last minute semester off from school and despite the circumstances under which this has happened, I am so jealous. I know everyone says that once they've graduated and they're in the real world all they want to do is go back to college - but I am so over it. 8 years, guys. It is TIME for me to be out of here - and I don't really do the typical college thing, anyway, with the parties and the socializing and the drinking until I vomit.

Anyway, it's got me wondering just how bad this semester will be for me. Not only do I not care at all about college anymore, I am not looking forward to a single one of my classes - 20th C Africa, Society and Culture in China, Senior Seminar, and some Children's lit class - these are the sort of history classes that make students want to major in absolutely anything except history. I hate that at this school you can't specialize. If I had really understood that it was going to be an important thing about being a history major - or that I would have been a history major at all - I would have gone to another school.

So essentially, my prediction for this semester is that I am going to hate my classes. And I just hope I can manage to make it to them and that they aren't as bad as I am expecting but if I have learned anything from my college experience it is don't put off the "other regions of the world" history credits until your last semester. At least I only have to take 12 credits. But I'm wondering how badly senioritis will kick in because I am faced with classes that seem so dull I fall asleep just considering them, and combining that with an 8 year relationship with college that I am definitely ready to end.. let's just say I'm a little concerned with my ability to keep my focus.

Thankfully the rest of my life is amazing - Woody and my friends and my dogs and my horse, and I am counting on all of them to keep me sane through the end of this semester.
