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.

One week in Punta Cana

Hola~ I am back from my much needed trip. I think I've maxed out on my Vitamin D and luckily no sun burns! I'm still processing the fact that I am back home now, so I don't know what to say... I ate nonstop, drank moderately (heh), walked along the beach whenever, saw palm trees, acquired an uneven tan, etc.
