Two Weeks.
July 23rd, 2005 | by john |My first and last Summer semester at Georgia Tech will come to a close after two weeks and this day.
For a brief period, I though the Summer would be easy-going and lax compared to Fall and Spring semester. By the time the second week was over, I had to let go of such optimistic expectations. I could not have picked any other schedule for the Summer. As so it happened, the two classes I am taking has complemented each other in terms of how they fit into my weekly routine. There was only one time where things that were required for those two classes conflicted with each other. Other times, major things were always at least a week apart.
Yesterday, I’ve jumped over the last big hurdle for one of my classes. I feel relaxed now but I know starting next week, I’ll start stressing over the two final exams coming up.
Anyway, I’ve strengthened my friendship with a select few while being driven from some others. As some theorize, humans are compelled to understand and befriend those who know about what you’re going through better than anyone else. I don’t think there is a better example of this than to just point at me when I am emotionally and mentally stressed; I find it that I have a difficult time communicating with people outside of the paradigm that I’m currently in. I suppose it’s really a shame but it’s something I have noticed more and more this Summer and semester out of all others.
