Hump Day

I keep losing track of my days and just trying to finish one day at a time.  I rolled out of bed to get to class at 9.  I really thought I'd be able to take all the classes I enjoy in college but I guess not.  I am required to take a Philosophy and English every Mon, Wed, and Fri from 9 to 11.  Those are my least favorite subjects.  I hate reading and writing and those are basically the only things we do in those classes.  On the other hand, I could take Calculus all day.  I actually enjoy that class and even knocked out my homework that's due in a week today.  I just want to get into the subjects that I will need for my major and not these crappy Gen Ed requirements.  Enough of ranting.

It's still so nice that I got done with classes by 1 pm.  I had time to eat lunch, do my math homework, write an essay, and even just relax all before practice at 6.  Then after practice I just eat dinner and chilled with some friends.  I'm still trying to get a solid routine down, and that's sometimes the hardest part of starting a new year.  Although it may not seem like I'm organized, I like to have a place for everything even if its all over the place.  I just have to figure out the routine.

Tomorrow my classes are cancelled between 12 and 3 due to a school Mass in the Basilica of the National Shrine next door so my first class starts at 3.30 tomorrow.  Not too shabby.  I just still need to get up and get some work done before church.  Two essays already due Friday.  This writing thing sucks!

Practice wasn't as good today as yesterday.  Coach said I need to be more consistent but it's just hard to have my best day every day of the week.  I don't really have much more to say about my personal practice today.  Just kind of disappointed but going to keep looking forward and ahead to tomorrow.  It's still just tough adjusting to everything.

After a relatively light practice, we went inside to watch some film from the Hampden Sydney game.  There were only a few clips of things we need to work on but it was still something I haven't done before.  Later coach passed out a personal "Goals" worksheet and had us fill it out for homework.  I didn't think I would be getting homework in soccer as well.  It was easy stuff and coach is just trying to get us all ready for our home opener Saturday.  Should be a good game.

Until tomorrow,
