She said, "I feel accomplished."

I must break the rules of social expectations: I received the second highest grade in my psychology course, much to my surprise. Though I am unsure of the final grade, my English instructor offered a few students, myself included, a paid tutoring position. Unfortunately, all the slots had been filled but he encouraged us to keep it in mind. Also, I received an A+ on every paper for my Communications class -- I learned that other students were not so fortunate.

Fuck you's.

There have been a few people over the past several months who have accused me of being uncaring or that I am blatantly ignoring them. Well, I'm fucking tired of it. My priorities were simple and clear: school and work. It was my first semester back in over a year and I no longer have the luxury of fucking around. Unfortunately, there are some who simply do not understand that -- I obviously have every minute of the 24-hour day at my slothful disposal.

Breathe again.

I think I will enjoy the respite between sanity and academic psychosis, curled up with warm coffee and a book I did not have immediate time for. To help make these dreary winter days bearable, one of my best friends and marital kin will be returning for the holidays; I cannot adequately express how much I have missed her.
