This semester
has been weirdly…… problematic. I’m starting to realize that I may have bit off
a little more than I can chew. It seems as if each week is somehow crazier than
the last. Each Friday I am sitting here thinking “thank god that’s over” only
to be shocked at the craziness of the following week. My dad would call this phenomenon
“life”. I don’t like to think that this is my life- one insanely crazy day
after another- but maybe it is. Whatever the case, I hope I get a handle on it
soon, because it’s too late to do anything about it. As a friend once told me on a particularly adventurous
night “There just ain’t enough coffee in the world for all this crazy.” There
has never been a statement truer than that.
Madness
aside, this week has been alright otherwise. The snow has given me an excuse to
sit down and have a little time to do nothing and catch up on some reading. I
really enjoyed the reading I chose for this week. The stories were so well
written and so well explained for someone who is quite ignorant of Indian culture
and definitions. I would highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for
something to read. I've come to really enjoy these past couple weeks with the
un-textbook option. I get to explore topics I would never otherwise as well as
learn through other student’s writing whether it be based on another story or
story in Ramayana. I particularly enjoy reading other student’s stories about Ramayana because I still get to “read” the book through other people’s eyes. It
is quite a fun experience.
Well, let’s get on to goals for the upcoming week. I
have two exams and a paper due, so at the minimum I am hoping that I can make
it through this week with my sanity. Other than that, I like to think I have reasonable
expectations (ha ha).
