Apathetically lazy...
this is feeling like kind of an uneasy lazy day. i have a lot to do, but not sure what to do or how to do it. and frankly, i'd rather not do any of it if that were an option. i guess maybe i should research or something. i'm feeling so apathetic about school, though. and the summer session is such a master of illusion. it's almost as long as a full semester, but not quite. so you feel like you can take it at a slow and steady pace like the other semesters. have the first couple weeks to be lazy and not even consider the work, then slowly ease into doing some of it. nothing too in depth hits you right at the beginning. but no. in summer session they seem to knock off that beginning part and just hit you right away. you feel like you just started, and the prof hasn't even had a chance to explain the assignment yet, but oh it's still due. it leaves me confused. the semester is still long, so why are we rushing it? maybe the key is to either have the super short sessions (2 weeks long and that's it) where the profs have no option but to lessen the load because you're doing it so quickly or to do the full semesters. that way, in the short sessions you feel the urgency, the pace is kicked into high gear and you move with it, or you do the regular semesters and you roll with the calm and have just an occasional ripple when you're scrambling to get things done. meh, it's too late for me, but i'll just call it a word to the wise. a tip for those who follow after me. i'll take my apathy elsewhere now. thanks for listening to me bore even myself.
P.S. Keep them in your prayers.
