Ahhh Spring Break

Well, I am willing to bet that most everyone in our class went away for the break! Hope everyone is enjoying themselves! As for me, I am working up here in Flagstaff, which I actually find enjoyable and a nice break from school.
I am also enjoying that i will get to hang out with my friends this week without feeling guilty for socializing instead of doing school work. I still have the paper for this class to rewrite, grrr and research for the group project but that is nothing compared to the work load I had been dealing with for the past few weeks. It's nice to be able to breath again I almost forgot what it felt like!
OK well everyone have a fantastic Spring Break!

Lost?

Lately I have felt so lost in school, chemistry in particular. I go to classes, recitation and study groups, and study for endless numbers of hours. With all that time and effort and the will to learn the material, it still is not clicking in my head. This is very frustrating for me, as I am used to doing well at any subject as long as I put a little effort into it.
Personal matters aren't helping anything at all, but I won't go into all that here. It just feels like if you loose your footing just for a spilt second you end up falling much further. One problem builds on another until the light at the end of the tunnel is just a small glimmer.
A theory of mine, that I like and keeps me going is that you can only fall so far before things can't help but get better.
Friends help pull you through, and for them I am thankful.
Wow, this is kind of a rambling blog. I hope that's OK. I really don't know what a blog is for, and i don't have anything mind bending that needs to be analyzed. This is me writing and I hope that is worth something.
