The first semesters were loaded to the brim with classes, keeping me busy morning, noon and night. Upon reviewing my schedule for this semester, I was more than a little excited to have only three classes running concurrently, and at least three days with nowhere to be before 1;30pm. This is not because I will be sitting around or sleeping in everyday. Far from it. rather, I am a morning person and this allows me freedom to use my most productive time of day for both schoolwork and the ever-growing amount of work associated with my state Leg Ed position (MANS) and other projects. In the interest of full disclosure, sure, I will sleep in occasionally, but only until the sun comes shining in my window.
I think that after the initial chaos gets sorted out, this will be one fantastic year.

I didn’t realize how much I missed my friends, and, though I hate to admit it, school. [...]

Starting at a new school—any school—is a turbulent whirlwind of forms and booklists, new schedules and new buildings. There are logins and passwords to figure out, moving vans and boxes to unpack. We crowd into the auditorium for our orientation, making lists in the corners of our notebooks of things we still need to attend to, questions we still have to ask, all while trading names and phone numbers with our new classmates sitting around us. [...]
That’s right folks I am currently preparing to start another year of classes Monday and by my count I will be entering grade 20. I decided today that I would give you brief comparison of my preparations for the 20th grade as opposed to the preparations I made for the 5th grade. [...]
