Ugh... reading

I don't know what it is with all this reading. I guess because I've mostly taken journalism courses and I don't feel that they are very heavy with reading. It's more hands on and experiences. And the fact that I took all general education courses except one gives me so much reading. I'm trying to balance it with everything else, but it's proving difficult.

I did get some reading done though. There was lots of productivity on History of England to 1688. It wasn't much, but it's more than normal. I did get my assignments for Ethics done though, so I count that as productivity as well. I do still have to study for American Government and Philosophy, but the test isn't until Friday, so I have time!

And I've kind of been doing the whole judging what I need to read by what's going on, rather than just reading it all. #horriblestudent

Well, back to reading for England.

What do you mean tomorrow is Friday?

I feel like my classes went by rather fast today, actually the whole day went by fast. I only have two classes on Tuesday/ Thursday and I think they might be my favorites. I have History of England to 1688 and Communication Theory. I say this because one, I love England, and two I really need to work on my communications skills.

I realized once again why being a commuter sometimes stinks. If one of your middle classes gets cancelled or shorten, you can be stuck with no where to go. Luckily, I consider the Newsroom and the Lab my second homes, so I wound up just chilling in there with some friends. I still think the cost of living on campus vs. at home is what makes me realize a half hour to hour wait isn't that big of a deal.

My friend Kira and I went to go visit Women's Choir this afternoon. They're doing very well. It was a little weird because they are definitely not the same choir they were a few months back. There's a lot of people missing as well as a lot of new people. We only sat on about three songs, only one being a song we sang last year, but I was impressed with the progress they've made already. It made me kind of wish I was still involved. Like I could be a part of that gorgeous sound. But I also realize there's a reason as to why I'm no longer involved. I don't have the time to dedicate nor the units. But it did bring back a lot of great memories.

The first edition of the Banner comes out tomorrow. I've already placed a few articles online. I have a really good feeling about this year in newspaper. I think it's going to be a very productive, challenging, and all around fun year. And tomorrow is just the beginning.

Also, two of my classes are already cancelled. So I'll have to wait around a little bit. But eh, it's not too bad. No worries.
