Week One, 20th Century American Literature

I'm behind on publishing my posts, but here's an attempt to catch up! This is the first week of school and I'm the utmost excited about this semester in particular. When I'm fit to be tied with my biology courses I walk into an English class. When I've had it up to my neck in thinking and reflection, you know the whole artsy aspect of my education, I sit down in a science course and bullet facts for a few hours. One of the best decisions I've made in my recent life was to double major in Biology and English. What I have created is a get-credit-by-default-when-distracted system. Genetics, physics, and ecology are all wonderful courses that hold my attention, but I need to discuss "white trash" and Shakespeare a few hours a day. School doesn't feel so much like school as it does fun...and that's how I know I'm right where I am meant to be positioned. I'm heavily anticipating the tidal wave of school work, RA duties, Greek life responsibilities, and the reduction of my social life. In order to prevent a catastrophic storm such as this nightmare, I'm most certainly set on working well ahead of time. I plan on completing all papers and projects before mid-term if possible. So far so good! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I'm finally starting to really enjoy my time at college as I've learned the tricks of the trade.
