Back Into The Swing of Things

This is my first term back at Drexel after six months of co-op in Los Angeles. I'm used to the 9-5 lifestyle (9-7 actually) and I'm having a little bit of a tough time readjusting to life as a student. I'm trying to re-learn how to effectively manage my time in order to get all the work done that I must do. It is especially difficult to stay on top of a class like Senior Project or SCRP Workshop becasue we do not meet regularly like other classes. It is easy to prioritize other classes when you are constantly meeting. The material and assignments stay at the front of your mind. Though I am readjusting atthe moment, I am confident that I will pull through and end up with a great Senior Project script. It seems like everyday I improve my time management efforts.

Near the end

The end of the term is close, and I definitely learned my lesson when it comes to sticking to deadlines. I barely have a week and a half to do some major rewrites. I'm gonna do my best, but I just wish I had like four more weeks. I think this needed to happen because my approach to my senior project and making deadlines will be radically different.

Wow. I definitely underestimated how difficult it would be to finish a first draft. I should have worked on it more over Christmas break, but it's hard when you're constantly visiting family and all that shit. I was also going through a terrible break up over the Christmas break which physically and emotionally crippled me. I was a mopey piece of shit for a long time. It also doesn't help that I've had pneumonia for the last week and a half.

I'm not making excuses here. I'm simply ranting. It's actually kind of helping too.
