Because School Has Resumed

School officially started for me two weeks ago. I have no idea where my summer went...it left so quickly. I'm still living on campus, but I think I'm the farthest away from my classrooms. Most of my classes are located on the south side of campus while my apartment was on the north side, so it's like a 10-15 minute walk to class everyday, sometimes twice a day.
I love my classes, especially those not concerning my major. I don't know whether this is a good thing or it's just normal. I mean, I do like microbiology since learning about microbes is just as fascinating as it is frightening. And I do enjoy Ochem...only at times when I understand it. When I don't, I get totally confused and cannot help but think: ohmygosh, failure. I have to learn Ochem though. Not like I have to learn it for the major, but more like I have to learn it because my career is going to be based on it. I wish Ochem lectures would be as fun as microbio lectures. I absolutely love my classical mythology class. The professor focuses on Greek Mythology, a field that I've been introduced to since the sixth grade. It is awesome. I feel that, that is my chill class. And the readings is like reading a story, so I take joy in that. I love art history, although I'm a bit iffy on contemporary art history. I try my best to understand the logic, the theory, the philosophy behind those modern works, but sometimes, I feel like I'm just staring at a blank canvas with lines...which exactly what some of the works are at times. But, it's a required class for getting an art history minor. The professor is brilliant though. And when I say brilliant, I mean, an absolute bloody brilliant woman. She doesn't seem to require any notes for her lectures and she knows a lot of stuff about art. And that's not an exaggeration.
But anyways, the new school year has started and this year is one bloody important year. I need to get through all of my classes and with exceptional grades. Pharmacy school applications are due in November and I sometimes go into 'flipping out' mood when I realize I haven't written my essay yet. But...as I tell myself, whatever comes, will come, regardless of what I do. So I might as well do the best I can and have faith in myself and heaven above...and keep a little hope (even though in Greek Myth, we've debated on whether hope is an evil since it was in Pandora's Box..but w/e). Ride out the storm!

Corner Tip #9: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part I will come out in 73 days. Watch it.
