It's back to school time - and it's true for me too! I was able to schedule my classes for only two days - which is the upside. The downside is that I am at school from eight in the morning until 7:20 in the evening. On Wednesdays, I have as little as 30 minutes break total, although on Monday, I have a longer break in the morning because my chemistry lab is only on Wednesday. So yeah, my Wednesday looks like this:
5:30am - The alarm goes off and I roll out of bed after only being there for six hours. I shower, dress, put on makeup, etc, and spend thirty minutes reading my Bible and praying - which is very helpful!
6:45ish - start getting books into my two bags because they won't all fit in one, get my water bottle, grab a little bit of food, etc.
7:00 - leave for school
8:00-9:15 - Speech
9:15-9:30 - run to the other side of campus for my next class
9:30-12:30 - Arrive at chem lab, having made sure I have on long pants, close toed shoes, and am not wearing my contacts. Complete the lab.
12:15-1:15 - Arrive at Supplemental Instruction Session for Anatomy about 20 minutes late. :-)
1:15-4:05 - Feverishly take notes while Dr. Hickerson lectures very quickly, giving more information than my brain can process at once.
4:05-4:30 - That's my time. Break. Go to the bathroom, run to the car to swap out the bookbag, etc.
4:30-5:30 - Another optional SI Session, this time for Chemistry Lecture. (I haven't attended this yet. We'll just have to see. It is worth a bonus point if you attend...)
5:30-7:20 - Listen to Mr Henry lecture on Chemistry and crack mostly corny, but sometimes very amusing, jokes, and take notes about Chemistry.
7:20 - Rush to my car so that I can arrive at church less than fifteen minutes late...
7:30-9 or 10 - Church - (of course, I've gotten there after 7:30 by at least ten or fifteen minutes). Also visit with people after worship is over.
Then, after a long, long day, I arrive home, carry my fifty tons of books into the house to be deposited on the bedroom floor for study. Eat something. Spend a little time relaxing. Maybe study some, and hope to be in bed by 11:30.
So, I'm pretty exhausted. I'm hoping I'll get used to it. Heh.
Well, now that I've completely bored you, I am going to say goodnight, go take out my contacts, which seem to be permanently affixed to my eyeballs after such a long day, maybe study a little, and fall into bed only to get up at 5:30 tomorrow and go to work... Go me.

Wow! You are one busy lady. I was going to take college classes this fall but decided to wait until atleast next semester. Thank the Lord that He gives us the strength to endure each day! What would we do without Him? I'm glad you are doing well!
I'm happy to know what you're doing.
One bit of advice (it's free since you didn't ask for it.). Skip the make-up part (it takes up too much time) and sleep a little longer. ;-) I actually would skip as much as I could in the morning to sleep longer. Can you tell what's important to me? :-)
Yep, GO YOU! You're in my prayers. So much love!
wow, the girl who shall remain nameless, you're busier then me. I'll be praying for you. Hope school went well yesterday.
Welcome to college life - especially nursing school! You have one thing going for you for your Herculian effort - you will appreciate your education more than those who have it given to them.
I think I will take a nap for you every afternoon. and I promise to be thinking of you when I fall asleep....LOL
