I have settled in to my crazy schedule at school as best as I can for the semester. It's a big one, but I can do it.
Sculpture is wonderful, and I love seeing the end result of what my hands can do. ASL is really fun to learn... I practice with my 4 yr old daughter and she knows almost as much as I do [little sponge]. Old English is one of my favorites. Beowulf is now one of my favorite stories, and Lanval reminds me of the movie Braveheart... the part where he loves a woman he should not. Intro to Government... well, I'm learning enough to make an informed decision should I ever become a citizen and need to vote. Chemistry is very interesting, and although I am a little overwhelmed with all the information, along with the exam coming in two days, I think I will do just fine. Math.... hmmm.... well, my professor is, uhh, interesting. I received the first failing grade of my life last week [no idea how], but am doing so well with the new material, and know I can still pull an A from this class. Homeroom for the Steps To Success program is wonderful... such a great help to have people on my side in the college, and getting to know a bunch of other marine wives that are going through the same things I am is such a blessing!
I am waiting to hear from the hospital on base about where I will be placed for my volunteer work. Although I am impatient and want to hear back NOW, I am grateful that it will take a while, so I can give my schedule a chance to settle down a little!
Aaaaand in 4 weeks, my husband deploys to Afghanistan.
*sigh*

Remember that it's not about the grade, but about the learning. Don't overwhelm yourself with doing so much that you cannot do it well without the stress mess that creates, especially with your favorite "nickers" gone overseas.
