One down, ten to go
We just finished our first week of classes; I've got two: Operating Systems and Spanish. Usually the first week is kinda slow as there's administrata/intro stuff to go through. Although, since both of these classes meet three times a week, we were able to get into some somewhat meaningful stuff. Oh, and of course we've already gotten some homework :)
At the start of every term I tell myself I'm going to stay on top of things; not become bogged down in homework and living by the "last minute." But, as the weeks of the semester go by, that dream slowly comes to an end. No matter how hard I try, I can never seem to stay on a good schedule. A schedule whereby I get homework done in a timely manner, and have keep up so poiniently in every class that come exam time I'm not "studying," I'm reviewing.
For some reason, however, I can never keep that dream alive. I'm not quite sure where in the semester I lag behind, or for what reasons, but no matter how hard I try, my fate is inevitable. In fact, resistance is almost futile! I think trying to get around it is like trying to outsmart the University Gods - that's just impossible. It's in their plan for students to get behind, have a sleepless night or two, and scramble to pass a test. Or maybe it's the Deadline Gods combining with the University Gods in a quest for total student domination. Although I'm optimistic now, I know that over the course of the next 9 weeks I will most certainly feel their rath.
