Stress in Summer?

Summer should be a time of relaxing, taking it easy, not working too hard... and yet... it doesn't feel like it is. Yes, I find time to go out once or twice a week with friends in the evening, but my days seem to be constantly full with schoolwork, housework, and learning to drive. I'd REALLY like to get my drivers license so that I can have my evenings back again! Tomorrow David and I are going to the driving school and we'll see what they say about how long it'll take me to get the thing. Keeping in mind that during Nolle-P (starts the 12th and continues until the 29th of August) I won't have ANY free time when David isn't at work!

I'm working my way through my third and last lab of the summer now. It only has one problem in it, but it is a rather large problem. It doesn't look too difficult as long as I remember which commands I need to use. ;)

I've also started on my 4th paper (of 5) that I need to write for my Introduction to Computer Games class.

I need to find some free time to do some MAJOR sewing on my overall too. It needs lots more marks sewed on and to make the sleeves so that they can be removed. If it is a warm August, I'll melt in long sleeved black overalls! Wonder if I dare make it into a miniskirt or give it 'pirate legs' so that I can have shorts? ;) Perhaps another year for that!

Is Summer Over YET?!?

Well... I've got just 4 days left to finish up this lab for school and I so don't want to work on it. Oh well... needs to be done anyways. I'd think that without the distractions of having so many friends in town, that I'd focus more... but I'm not.

Tomorrow I'm going to the eye place to get new glasses. I want something that is a bit more modern but not over-powering. We'll see what I pick out. I want something new! Different! we'll see what I find. My old ones are 4 years old now and I'm rather tired of them.

I'm starting to wonder more and more if I even want to work with computers! They used to be fun, but now it feels like they are work! Perhaps it wouldn't feel so much like work if I would stop procrastinating my assignments so much!

This weekend we've got some sort of dinner on Friday night with Davids cousins. Then I get to help one of my friends move.

Summer

I love summer, with one exception... I see so much less of other human beings. Sitting at home and studying most days doesn't provide for very interesting human interactions. So I'm rather looking forward to school starting up in the fall. Sadly I'll be doing distance classes and won't be meeting many people then either... but at least I can go to school and hang out with people. Right now almost noone is in town at all!

I've got 4 assignments left to do and a tenta for my summer classes, but that's it. I've been working rather hard on learning the driving stuff too. I have another lesson on the 31st and this time they've asked David to come along so that he can better understand what things I need to work on. Personally I think I need to work on not stalling the car. But that's probably just me.

I really need to get some of my programming assignments done soon. They tend to always take longer than I plan.

But tonight! Out to the music festival in town with David. There are a few things I want to see and maybe go by and see a couple of short films too. I've always loved short films. *misses Uppsala*

Well, summer continues. Been working lots on my summer school, along with trying to get some of the household stuff done. My friends who have summer vacation have been very distracting though. They think it is fun to stay up all night since they don't have to do anything the next day. But if I do that, then my homework isn't quite as easy to get done since I'm so tired!

Been working lots on driving. I'm hoping to get my license before Christmas, but I'll probably fail again. I need to go get working on the theory bits again...

Today I've got an appointment to get new contacts and then I need to do the grocery shopping and do more practice driving. Bleh! How boring! But it is good to keep busy at least. :)
