| | Sam requested knowledge about the past academic year, and so I give it.
This past year has been somewhat successful.
Academically, my marks have been poor. In my head, I know I have the ability to be getting A's everywhere I turn. Alas, I'm having difficulty achieving that, particularly in reference to this second semester. I am unaware of why I have no drive, but I do hope that it comes along next year. I hope the great importance of the last two years of university for grad school applications can motivate me to actually work during the year. Overall, other than a few crunch times, I've done very little. For that, I am not proud. (Although my first semester marks were really quite good, I could have done better.)
Socially, I have found myself in a rut. My lack of drive has managed to manifest itself in other parts of my life, and unfortunately, socially I do not stand out. I have not participated in anything outside of my classes, and that also disappoints me. The theme of the year has seemingly been to underachieve in every department. I look forward to returning home where there is a group of people that I know I enjoy.
In the love department, all has been well. This is the only part of my life that has progressed. Devin and I are living together next year which tickles me pink, and I don't even like pink. In the forms of other love, my roommates and I have had an outstanding year and it will pain me to not live with them. Thankfully, they will be living two buildings down from me! And my family this year has also grown quite a bit. Valerie and I are extremely close, finding Shawn and his family was exciting... so, in this area, I have flourished. I think this flourishment has been a bit overwhelming and has been the cause of some of my lack of desire for other things, because I've overextended myself in this way. I hope that by next year, things will be a bit more normal.
Overall.. that has been my academic year. I am very happy with my program, I know it's the right one for me. The classes that I'll be taking next year are beyond awesome sounding, and if I told you the names, you'd be jealous. Maybe not, but I'll make myself think that. Fabulous, fabulous.
I should be studying now. Speaking of underachieving...
