"It is not the ctitic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Today...

You're probably gonna hear me ramble a lot this semester-what with all the free time on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Seriously! It's almost eleven and I'm still in my pjs. Though, I have been up for two hours and I've been working on homework :)

Today I must go grocery shopping. And do my laundry. Seems the underwear supply dictates my laundry schedule... I have to do all of tomorrows homework. And Monday's homework. Haha, and maybe even start on next Wednesday's. I get these spurts of motivation. I'll be in class or something and think how I'm going to go home and get everything done! But then I walk into my room and think how nice it would be to change into sweats and get on my computer-listen to music, journal, blog, Facebook, and watch TV. How sad! Not sure I can handle constant school for the next twelve months!

Coming back to my apartment to four new roommates was weird. Still not used to it. I miss my old roommates! Sad day. I think it wouldn't be as weird if I was in a different apartment. But being in the same place with different people is what is so weird. My old roommate finished finals yesterday and we went out for ice cream :) Fun fun.

I'm actually kind of enjoying my homework so far. I'm just worried about how much I have to remember. Like, I don't want to get too far without knowing what kinds of things the teacher is looking for for us to remember... if that makes sense. Like, I have a clean slate and I don't want to start off wrong.
