It's Begun

Another school year has started.  I'm still deciding what this school year should be labeled. I've been here for four years, so it's my senior year. However, I have two years till I graduate, therefore I'm a junior.  So...I think I'll just continue calling it my second junior year.

My schedule is as full as always. I'm working part time for the physics department. I have 16.5 credits.  And I'm going to attempt to have a social life.... that might stop once midterms start.  Despite this, I'm really looking forward to this semester.  I just have a feeling that it's going to be a great semester.  Why?  No clue, but it's the truth.  Of course, to make a semester great requires a lot of action on my part.  Mostly in regards to attitude.  This is one reason I'm attempting a social life, having fun and avoiding homework improves one's attitude.

Isn't it interesting, the boundaries we create in our own lives.  We label seasons, semesters, ages, and other time periods as if they have any sort of influence on who we are.  Now, obviously, certain things start (like school) which change our lives.  However, we don't need to wait till these boundaries occur to make the changes in our life that we want to make.  We pretend that everything is split into time periods and we can't alter who we are until a new time starts.  I can change though, I can change now! Even though a new semester started a week ago, I don't need to wait till it ends to change who I was when it started.  A new semester has already begun and it's going to be good.
