Change of Plans

The first week of classes is over, and the second week picks up again tomorrow. It's been pretty busy, and the classes are already running full speed ahead. I am going to be worn out by the end of every week, and I have a feeling that all I will want to do every break I get is sleep. My teachers all seem pretty good, but incredibly intense on their topic of expertise. For example, my Biology teacher- Prof. Darley. He seems like a reallly nice guy. He is in his late 60s and has been teaching for 35 years. This is his last year teaching....and he loves Biology so much. I mean...the first day of class he was flipping through some pictures of algae that were taken under a microscope, and continued to say, "Isn't it beautiful??" And then he showed us his "favorite algae," and he was so excited when he talked about how much time he spends growing algae and that we are going to study some of the algae which he has grown if we are in the corresponding lab. (I am). The guy could not be a bigger dork if he went to Georgia Tech. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Yes, he could be. *wink* =)>

Ok, so this weekend turned out a bit differently than expected. I found out that my lake weekend was actually one night. That meant I would leave after class Friday for Lake Lanier and then return Saturday whenever I chose to do so. That was great because I could still hang out with Tom, Claire, and Phillip on Sat night....Only everything changed. Thanks to the hurricane...I guess....the Lake weekend was canceled. Friday I got a message to let me know that they were sorry but had to cancel. No explanation, so that was the most logical guess I could make. Then Tom already had plans...as did everyone else in Athens as of 2:30 pm Friday, so I called my dad about heading home. Mom is out of town, so I went home and we had KFC and watched I Robot. SUPER GOOD movie. I was actually surprised bc I expected it to not be that great. After I went upstairs to go to bed, Jordan got home, and we ended up hanging out talking in my room till about 4:30. That was fun bc I don't get to see him often.
Saturday, Ben and Lacey came by to eat lunch and hang out some, then they left for Atl, and I left for Athens. I called Claire to see if she wanted to hang out (Phillip is out of town for the weekend), and couldn't get a hold of her. Sooo Tom and I decided to go ahead and eat. But we ended up waiting too long to eat- messing around on facebook, doing laundry,etc- and we had to make supper instead. But it was good (Hamburger/Chicken helper), and we watched some Matrix.

That has pretty much been my weekend. I have to study today for a Spanish quiz-wish me luck- tomorrow, as well as do a lot of my Spanish homework in which I am entirely behind. UGH. I am not in the mood for hw at all!! I can't seem to focus on classes...it's like I am all in a sudden ADD. I just don't want to do anything at all, and I know it sounds lazy, but I just can't concentrate on it. I mean, I will do the work, but it just seems annoying and takes forever to do. I guess I am still just adjusting to the swing of things again. I need to break out of summer mode.
Ok- outta here
Later my hoes. =)
Love,
Megs
