This week is going by quickly...which is good. I'm looking forward to May 31st, because I'm pretty broke. Actually, dangerously broke. I overdrew my account, but, amazingly enough I put the $12 of change from last semester in my checking account today while I was still in the grace period of that. whew. that was too close of a call. I need to keep better track of my money this summer, and budget. oy.
I'm feeling a lot better about life. I must just have had a bad day? I don't know. It's been rainy here so I blame my mood on that...
I'm going to stay in my design classes next semester, as planned, and see what I think. If they work out, great, I'll be able to work French in too. If they don't, I get to load my schedule with electives because I'm still sticking around for two more years, due to class requirements changing on me.
In the meantime, I need to practice les Francais. Beaucoup. Basically not taking it a semester really makes me rusty on verb tenses and conjugating is difficult! C'est vrai. I have a workbook I can work on though. I'm adding this to the things I want to accomplish this summer, including tackling a large reading list. Yay for public libraries. I have already placed holds on 4 or so different books. I really want to read Orthodoxy, by G.K. Chesterton.
Tmatt, you're out there, what is a "must-read" book?
I'm on a reading kick now, since I have some free time outside of work. :)
