I won't let him win, but I'm a sucker for his charm.

I'm starting to find myself wondering when I will actually have time, as in time to myself, to just relax...just time. Things are starting to get a little busier, not that school is really ever busy. It's just more time consuming than anything. But with work on top of it, and never having enough time to sleep or just do nothing...it gets to your head. I can feel myself starting to get worn out already, and it's only the first week of October. I've already committed to picking up an extra shift a week at each job, mainly because I need the money and they need the help, and I don't mind doing it. It gives me a change of setting, and I usually have a fair amount of time to do my homework while working. But part of me feels like it's a bad idea, and the other part feels like it's just something I have to do. Which it is, specifically because I've already committed to it, which is my own fault. But yeah, I just feel like they're aren't enough hours in the day for me to do everything I need to do, and keep myself sane at the same time. Hopefully the long weekend will help, since I've got two days where I can actually sleep in past 10. I think it's about time I just had a 12 hour sleep. It might re-stimulate me. Then maybe I can catch up on copying notes from slides, and get ahead on some of my assignments and studying...depending on if I have anything I need to work on. My instructors seem to be pretty chill about not giving homework over long weekends. It's like junior high all over again, I love it.
On a lighter note, Elliot comes home on Saturday, which is incredibly exciting. We made plans to hang out Sunday before I work, so we'll get to spend some real time together. We've been able to make time for about half hour phone calls once or twice a week, but we're both so busy that we can't really discuss everything and anything that needs to be discussed to its fullest. It's actually been like that with a lot of people. I mean, I don't necessarily mind that I only see the same six people all the time, because they're some of my best friends. But a) I only see them once a week, and b) there are so many people here I haven't seen in a while that I'd love to see. I'm even content with seeing them like, once a month. At least we'd have a lot to talk about, and it's way better than nothing. It's so hard when everyone's so busy all the time...I'm finding that everyone in second year uni have a lot more work than they did last year, and I have a lot less, which is probably why I'm okay with having two jobs. I'm just not really okay with only seeing people once a week, or less. It's not cool. Even though I don't get a long weekend next month, I'm glad everyone else does - maybe I'll actually see people for once.
I think this entry may have come off a lot more whiny than I intended it to be. I simply meant to just reflect on everything, and give Jason the satisfaction of having a longer post to read.
I should probably start paying attention to Paul. This might be important. Later gators.
