Two down, four to go

Well, yesterday I took shot number 9, which marked the 8th week of my treatment. Two months down, only four months to go! HAHA, ya right - only. Four months seems like an eon away to me. Ya, these last two months did seem to go by insanely fast, but I have a feeling that the next four will go by at snail speed.

I'm really excited for mid December to mid January, though. I won't have classes to worry about, papers to write, tests to take - Thank goodness. I'm so sick of school. I don't want to be taking these classes. Well, actually, most of them are not too bad, it is just a matter of having to take the classes when I don't want to be taking them. I already have a degree. I shouldn't be in school anymore. It's not like I'm going for a Master's or a Doctorate - Hell No!

I turned in my Memoir last night. That was actually a fun class. I enjoyed writing. Well, I didn't really enjoy having to write, but I liked that I actually wrote! I find myself with writers block all the time, but memoir writing sort of forced me to write. I know a lot of what I wrote was total crap, but at least I was writing. My professor said that is what really matters. As long as you force yourself to just sit down and freewrite everyday, you know, get the creative juices flowing. Than eventually something good will just sort of come out!

I also really like my science of nutrition class, but I hate the time crunch. I would love to read the book and learn everything, but having to read everything and do all the assignments so quickly, just makes me hate it. I read everything really fast, so then I don't retain any of it. I love everything that I read, but it is so pointless because I'm not retaining any of it - i'm not actually learning anything, which sucks. I think I'll keep the book even after the class is over so I can go back and re-read the really interesting parts.

Ok - enough complaining about school. I better actually get to work. I have two more chapters to read in Nutrition before my test tomorrow.
