Schedule, Shmedule

So this semester is my last one, as I think absolutely everyone is aware of because I am so excited about it. Don't get me wrong, I love school and I have valued my educational experience, but I think I have also done my time here at BYU. This semester, however, is going to really challenge me because I have put off until now both of my civilization credits, which means I am taking Humanities 201 and 202 both!!! Wahoo! Well, it has been a little while since I have taken General Education credits, so I have gotten out of the mode of "busy work". Now, I pretty much am going to be spending the next four months reading a textbook and keeping up on the homework for these classes. I can't wait! :(



After this first week of classes, I was feeling really overwhelmed about everything that I was going to have to do this semester and how I was going to be able to balance my time. As most of you know, I am also working full time (well 32 hours, so pretty close) and doing an internship of 16 hours per week. I have five classes at school, three Social Work classes and then these two dang Humanities. I like to know ahead of time everything that I need to complete and I usually like to have everything mapped out (at least in my mind) of when and where I am going to complete things. But with all the extra humanities stuff that I have to complete, It was all just too overwhelming to me. So.... Devin and I sat down and made schedules of our entire semesters! With a little help from some poster board we bought at Smith's, we are ready to roll! I feel relieved all ready, knowing when and where I am going to get things done. We now have them hanging on the back of our door. They are one month at a time, so we will just switch them out as the months go by. Have a look:



Nerd at heart? YES!!!!

Gotta love it!
