*Takes deep breath and SCREAMS*

OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!

I have just realized exactly how much work i need to accomplish within the next month. And it's a lot!! A ten page research paper, passing the chemistry placement exam, figuring out how NOT to be nervous when giving speeches, acing my speech final, and doing REALLY well in Women's lit, not to mention my other classes. OH MY GOD!!! *Runs around in circles w/ ipod (god I love this thing)* Okay, so if anyone reads this, please, some words of wisdom would be helpful. Yes, I understand that if I work diligently everyday then it will be fine. But for gods sake, does anyone really have that kind of work ethic. *Inhales, exhales, Inhales, exhales* it is no longer a matter of not wanting to do this or being lazy. In order to feel any accomplishment, in order to be able to be successful at del val I must figure out how to do this. These are just challenges on the road to my future...right?

That reminds me....I got my official acceptance letter to Del Val. And....I got an annual $8,000 scholarship! I am so unbelievably relieved and scared. My work has finally paid of. Now I can keep moving forward.
