So, it turns out my Mon, Wed, Fri class is really a Mon, Wed class. Meaning I have Fridays free. (Don't tell my job, though!)

They're not really free, anyway. I have 30 hours of service I have to do for one class, 15 of those are for a family to which me and another student will be assigned. Hopefully, I will like my family, and I won't feel like a slave. Because that would not be cool.

Also, for Teaching Fellows I have a 26-hour service project. And have to do 5 hours of service not related to the other 56 hours of service already required.

PLUS, I have to participate in at least one Teaching Fellows social event (which should be easier this semester, now that I actually know some Teaching Fellows) and I have to attend at least one educational/cross-cultural event (which has a wide-range of possibilities, and usually I can find something I really want to go to).

In addition to all this, I have several projects, problem sets (geometry... ew), papers (real ones this semester), readings, etc for the 17 credit hours worth of classes I'm taking this semester.

I'm so glad I quit my job. I'm still in the process of entering all this stuff into my calendar (because I'd rather open up iCal than try to track down six syllabi to figure out what my homework is).

So, yes... wow. I'll be around, but I'm trying really hard not to procrastinate the semester away. So, if you feel like you're seeing me on here a LOT, make sure I don't have other shit to be doing. Also, if I disappear for a while, check up on me (email works, a few of you have that, or call me - I'll gladly give you my number). If I become "all work and no play" I will probably burn out quickly. So, I'm trying to strike a balance this semester...

Alrighty, then... back to entering things into iCal.
