I'm Pretty Much Awesome.

I am crazy.

And I am stoked.

If my plan goes as planned, I'm taking the GRE this summer, I think. 
I'll be applying for grad school this fall.
I'll be doing an internship next spring.
I'll be in grad school next fall.

Holy lifeness. I didn't know everything would come this fast.

I went and saw a teacher about my planned schedule for the next four semesters. He okay-ed it. But it'll be crazy, and I'll have no life. Which will be nothing compared to grad school. 

So I'm looking at definitely 21 credits next semester. DEAD.

My life, for the next...seven years...will be math and economics. Seven years of learning...It'll be awesome.

This semester, I was annoyed that all my classes were so easy, so I asked if I could audit a class for which I haven't had the prerequisites (I'm enrolled in them right now). I'll have to teach myself some stuff if I hope to understand what's going on, but it's all easy stuff. But I'm so stoked to have a class that will actually challenge me, even though it's not for credit. But I'm taking it this fall for credit, and I figured that anything I could do to make my life easier for the next few semesters would probably be good.

I am SO stoked though!! Oh, the sweetness of a challenge. Let's see how well I can use my limited resources.

Seriously for serious, I am so excited for next semester. It's gonna be KILLER!!

My only problem is teh moneyz. That's one limited resource that I'm definitely scared about. I won't have time to have a job, so I'll either have to take out some not-government loans, go hungry, mooch off of friends, suddenly get a really high GPA, or find some money growing on trees. The last option sounds best, but I won't tell anyone if I do find it lest the value of the dollar goes down and inflation goes up. That wouldn't be fun.

Man...I can already feel the tension...the one-step-behind-ness...the no-life-ness...the being-tied-to-the-library-ness...the breakdowns...the tears...the fears...

I am crazy.

And I am stoked.

Dude, you're totally going to rock ALL of those 7 years, all the struggles are going to seem miniscule, and you are going to kick some serious educational butt!

My verification word is "noshakie". Which is especially fun since I was dancing just before I started typing.
