Fall Plans
The summer biology class is winding down, and it’s time to think about classes for the fall. Only… it’s kind of panic-inducing, with what seems to be so much to do and so little time. Relatively speaking, this was a pretty easy class. It’s only going to get harder from here… I’ll be going to class three times a week (two classes a quarter — two days of lecture and one for labs), which means 600 miles of commuting per week on top of homework, studying, and working on getting clinical/research experience.
Now, depending on your point of view, the commute is either an inconvenience to be tolerated or a burden of increasing weight that will eventually break my back. I don’t mind the drive itself, but when you add it up, it’s a pretty big chunk of time–and money. Unfortunately, there isn’t any better option, short of giving notice at work and going to one of the schools around here.
Anyway, here’s to hoping I pull this off somehow.
