Back to School

So school started Monday and I was kind of excited for it, kind of not.  It's always nice to have something to fill up my time, but other times I can't help but wish I was out of school, married and taking care of kids or simply something else besides taking care of obnoxious 18 year olds.
I would honestly be perfectly fine to just move out into an apartment, find a job that pays, and give someone else my position right now because I'm so tired of it.
The real story to this blog post however is to talk about this semester.  I'm taking Nutrition in the Life Cycle, Nutrition of the Infant and Child, Human Physiology and corresponding lab, Principles of Chemistry I and corresponding lab, and the gym class.  All in all, 16 credits.  They all go towards my major and it's scary to think that I'm so far along in college already.  I have two more years left of school including this semester, maybe less if I go to summer school!  It seems like not long ago that I was just a little sophomore in high school who was super shy and had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, let alone if I even wanted to go to college!  Time really does go by so fast...
My goals this semester are to stay on top of my homework, not fall behind in chemistry, and to remember to enjoy life still.  That means go out on weekends, know when to say yes and when to say no to things, get away from housing (a lot), and just be myself.  I also don't want to stress myself out too much.  My hair is finally growing and seems to be doing alright; it just needs to stay that way!
I also really want to try and find a job.  My current plan is to stay here over the summer, take a chemistry class, and work so I can earn as much money as I possibly can.  Money really and truly sucks in my life right now.  Money should just grow on trees or school should be a million times less expensive.  Either one would be a miracle though.
This has officially been the most random post ever though and I should just go to bed.  So hopefully this weekend relieves my buildup of stress/grief/anxiety/frustrations/whatever-it-is-that-I'm-feeling at the world and then I'll be much happier.
