Okay, so the first week back from Spring Break has almost come to a close, and I must say I feel like this has been one of the busiest weeks I've had all year. Though I'm not saying that it is a bad thing, I just feel a little worn down, and it's only Thursday. But even though this week has been full of getting back into the swing of things, I am just glad daylight savings made time seem to go a little faster, even though I think my sense of time is still just a little off.
I honestly, REALLY missed Guilford while on break. Since I’ve been living in Greensboro for the last five years, people who come from everywhere but Greensboro here at Guilford like to call me the local kid. I suppose in a manner of speaking I am, so going home for break didn't seem as great of an adventure as I had planned. And by Tuesday of the break, all I wanted was to come back to my wonderful dorm room, with my bed, my decorated walls, I wanted college food, I wanted the tranquil feeling of the campus, I wanted to be back in class, I wanted... to be around the people I've come to befriend here on campus... I missed home.
So when my 8:30 class rolled around on Monday of this week, I was excited, but I soon realized... I was going to have a jam packed week. I have to say I work well under pressure and I am a great last minute organizer for penciling in on my list of events during any given day, but I've come to realize cutting out some of the unimportant events during a busy week will not only save you energy and time, it'll spare you some extra sleeping hours too.
Though despite all the craziness of my week, I am just glad to be back in my classes and sleeping in my own dorm bed! This week thus far has been quite a wild one. All this week I have been visiting with my professors and my advisor just to catch up and make sure where I stand in their classes and as a student. Which seeing your professor regularly, I find is a great habit to pick up on. If nothing else at least see your advisor every other week. THEY REALLY DO LOVE SEEING YOU! Also it shows you care. And here at Guilford, someone always has your interest and your well being at heart.
Hopefully next week will be a tad bit slower, I still have a feeling it will be a busy week, just less chaotic. Oh and before I end this... great news on my part... I did get the Orientation Leadership job, so you'll see my face for Orientation Week for 2010!
On that note my lovely readers, I'll be back in a couple of days, so take care of yourselves, be safe, be well, and be you! Have an amazing week! I have so awesome homework to do! Also Happy Late St. Patrick’s Day!!!
