Busy so keeping it brief

It's been a little while since I've updated, so here goes a quick and not-well-thought-out post...

I've been pretty busy. At the beginning of last week I felt like I was right on schedule with school work, so I took a few evenings off and watched movies instead of forging ahead. Cut to Thursday, I felt way behind on my work and ended up spending most of these last few days doing what I should have done sooner. I just submitted my first digital project assignment though, so that's pretty exciting and absolutely horrifying. As for the other class material, generally I'm pretty excited about what we're reading and doing in class. Of course there are always assignments, readings, discussions that are nightmares, but I'm not doubting myself and that's what is most important to me. Although, I'll be really pleased once we no longer have to read a whole book in addition to a few articles to prepare for class each week.

As a contradictory side note, I applied for a job last week and have an interview tomorrow. The job is described as an adjunct position, but I would basically be tutoring students in their writing roughly 10 hours a week. While I'm surviving, in part thanks to my loan money, the extra income would be nice. If I get the job, maybe I won't even have to take out a loan during the spring semester.
