It is literally only the end of my second day of classes, and I am feeling the pressure. Being at school for 12 hours on Monday and Wednesday are going to drain me. (I am not in class that entire time, but if I left school during my 4 hour break, I would not attend my night classes, and that would be bad.) After all day in class, I decided that I am going to use my commute time to read for fun. If I didn't have a fun outlet, I would probably be a blubbering mess before midterms. I challenged myself to read 10 books this year (via Goodreads). I am excited because I want to be able to read 10 books this year, but last year I challenged myself to 12, and I only read like 5, and 3 of those were for school. I am also saddened by this because I am used to reading like freaking crazy, and school has eliminated that from my life. After reading EVERYTHING for classes, reading for fun just makes me sleepy. But I am committed to reading 10 books that aren't assigned for school this year. I've finished 2 already, but that mostly due to the fact that I was stuck in Louisiana for 5 extra days. I hope you will hold me accountable and help me achieve beyond my 10 books. I will balance school and fun because I refuse to let myself become unhappy!
