Back to school blues...

I am really dreading the start of the semester next week. Spring semesters are always bad for me for some reason. This one will be especially rough, with two labs, senior design, aeroelasticity, spanish, avionics, research, bike riding, gre stuff and grad school apps and trying to finish my pilot's license.

It has been so nice to sleep and watch tv the past few weeks. I have come to realize that Tech really takes it out of you. I have been in a much better mood these past few weeks. Spending time with Will outside of school has been awesome as well. I've discovered that I'm in a healthy, happy relationship! School makes it so easy to forget that. Between all the stress of classes and our hectic schedules, it is really hard to get some quality time together. I almost prefer the semester where he was in Greenville. Although I only saw him on the weekends, we had that time set aside and didn't really have to be anywhere at any time unless we wanted to. It was so nice then, and this break also, to just be able to sit around and enjoy each other's company. I feel like we got a great chance to remember our chemistry and how much fun we have together.

Just in time, too, because this semester will be rough on our relationship. Soon he will be racing and will be gone on the weekends. It will be tough to get time together during the week. I, however, am going to try my best to remember how much fun we have together and just go with it. I think I did ok last year, but I want to be even better about not pressuring him regarding how much time he has to spend with me (although it is very important to the health of a relationship.) It is only 3 months and I know it will fly by. I will try not to wish the time away, though, because I know that at some point in my life I will want that time back. So,

Ready or not, here it comes.
