It's been a while, eh?

Hey Everyone! It's been a while since I've did an entry, eh? Sorrrry! I've been so busy with school and everything else but I'm on duty tonight so I figured that I haad to sit down and tell you all the happenings in my life. Where to start...hmmmm... Well, these past couple weeks have been very very very stressful. Classes are winding down and professors are getting last exams in before finals. Only 7 days of classes left and then a week of finals and this semester will be all done and I'll be half way done my undergrad! yaaay!

To add to the stress is my lovely RA position. With programs still to do and dealing with resident problems, I am ready to pull out my hair. It's so hard living with people and becoming friends and then not getting respect/the understanding that I still have to do my job as the RA. It's a tough position but I'm dealing with it as each day comes.

Living at college definitely puts space between students and their families. I haven't been home since Spring break and I'm living on campus this summer. It's hard not seeing my family that much and I think it can put a strain on relationships. Everyone's stress levels plus not talking/seeing each other everyday is a hard challenge to deal with. That is definitely adding to my unbelievable stress levels. hah!

Well, the weather has been warming up so daily walks on the beach are definitely helping me keep my sanity. Just two weeks left and I'll be able to regroup and stop being a crazy stressed college student!

I've probably seen a lot of you at the past couple UNE days (you may recognize me by the group of crazy kids sitting in the window writing messages on the window....?) haha

Okay, lots of work to do. Hope your school years are all winding down nicely!
