getting behind

Well I couldn't get any homework done yesterday and probably won't get much done today :( . And I have to repeat next week for homecoming, except there are more activities. I usually do my reading class on the weekends and leave the other mornings for the other 4 classes. People can be really frustrating because they don't understand how much work it is to keep up with 15 credit hours, a family and senior year. They tell you, you need to learn to say no and then complain when you do. But like Cari said sunday, it's between me and the Lord. He has called me to go to school and I will do it for the glory of the Lord. If someone wants to complain maybe they should take it up with Him.

That said, I'm so glad to have the youth out, it is nice to take a break every once in a while even if it is a tad bit stressful to do so. It's also nice to have a little while to visit with people instead of a book. I know the next few weeks are going to ramp up. I have to do another observation, hopefully next week. I have several tests coming up, mainly the one in ecology. The amount of info to learn is immense, probably the most I have ever done and we aren't through yet. I can't remember if I have said, but close to 140 slides, full paragraphs on most of those, another 15-20 videos, two text books (four chapters in one and 7 in another) and he has 3 articles now posted (the one I looked at was 80 pages), I'm just waiting to see if they are all required. Oh and we have this HUGE project in forensics. We're doing Environmental Impact statements and we have to summarize them in a group of 4 of us. The documents are like 600 pages long. No wonder I've been having eye strain.

We have a conference in Little Rock on the 6th, I have to leave at 4 am, hopefully returning at 5 pm, then fall fest at the school at 6 (I'll be squeaking in to run a game from 6-6:30) then we have to run to Horatio for the last ball game. That will be a long day. Speaking of football, the boys played hard last night. We were soooo close to winning. Several times we were at the end zone and just couldn't get it the next 5 yards. It was an exciting game though. We were 7-6 (us) and till the last quarter I think. They might have gotten to 12 in the 3rd quarter I can't remember for sure. I'm trying to get the video of the ceremonies posted, but it's not currently cooperating....
