August/September in a nutshell.

Nothing. Byeeeee.
No but seriously, nothing great happened. I'm running on week 3 of school and it's been super tolerable and I am okay with it! I even have time to READ leisurely which is amazing.. although I haven't started studying yet.. so maybe I just have my priorities wrong (or right?).
I made some acquaintance-type friends. It's all been very chill minus the part where I wake up in a rush to pack lunch and run for the underground (still work-in-progress). 
I somehow pulled my chest muscle so now it really hurts to cough but I am kicking this sickness to the curb. At least I hope I am. It's been a persistent few weeks (almost 2 months) of acute bronchitis.

Still job hunting for part-time work. Haven't sent out any applications, but am going to try my absolute non-procrastinating best to aim for the end of this week. 

On a scale of 1-10, I'd rate life sub-par to not bad right now.

Grass is always greener..

Day 2 is over and I am swamped like a mofo.

Instead of studying, I want to read leisurely and find a new job. It's funny how I kept telling myself that school was what I wanted, but alas, I am trying every excuse to get out of it. School work is a bit confusing but makes sense in a way? I don't know how to describe it. Content is very heavy and lab component is intimidating, but since I have more lab experience, I'm hopeful it will come in handy. Otherwise, I think I can make it.. I think. School feels hard, but I have this gut feeling that I can make it through if I just put in some effort (duh). All my personal free time is kind of out the window more than when I loathed working which is ironic. I haven't even been able to absorb the fact that I am in the ~big city~ now since I'm stuck in school all day and by the time I get out, I need to prepare myself for the commute (which has been tolerable so far-- gotta wait until winter comes and trains become a mess).

The one thing I appreciate is how thorough/straight-forward the provided content is (no fill in the blanks in-class or surprise quiz information) and how you could totally just self-learn with enough discipline. The part I dislike the most that I find common in every school system is their online navigation. I'm not a computer person or graphic designer, but why are school websites always so shit. There's too much going on and the organization is not so user friendly. It's weird.
