Jesse said something this morning along the lines of “not setting any kind of ridiculous goals this time, just doing mad work” (Not an exact quote. It was early and I’m anything but a morning person) and I wholeheartedly agree. Surprisingly optimistic about this semester. Looking forward to my classes now that I’ve decided on Psych as a major and the teachers I met today seem more than bearable. Dare I say I actually like them thus far.
At first I was skeptical about this whole “learning community” thing Palomar has going where a certain class becomes mandatory when signing up for another, but after today I don’t think the idea is too bad. I was forced to enroll in a reading class when I picked my Psych class, and while I already have my English units covered from my AP scores, I’ll enjoy having a class that I excel in as well as brushing up on some old skills I probably haven’t used in a while. Hell, my classmates don’t seem too bad either.
It’s bites an enormous one waking up so early, I fucking hate mornings with the intense passion of a thousand suns, but it feels great to be on a schedule. I get so much more accomplished and the days don’t seem to blow by so fast.
In the end, it’s a minuscule struggle with ample rewards, and having a major declared makes me feel like I’m actually working towards something for the first time in my college career. It’s a blurry finish line, but it’s a finish line none the less.
So here’s to this semester, just another step.
