Feeling unsettled, restless, and bored

I’m waiting for my next discussion section to start and feeling unsettled, restless, and REALLY bored.

I left my counseling appointment on Monday in a fantastic mood and guardedly optimistic about graduating in December and the things that go along with that. Part of that I know is that my counselor is excited for me and helps me see that it can be exciting and asks about how I want to be.  Everyone else in my life seems to always focus on the uncertainties.  That’s all well and good, except that the uncertainties don’t mean anything if there isn’t something worthwhile at the end.  Those around me just ask about the uncertainties and don’t bother to ask about the exciting things (living on my own for the first time, growing up, etc). 

As an update on a previous entry, I ended up with an A on the ID portion of my Poli Sci exam (which meant I got all 8 that I answered correct!) and a B on the essay portion.  Definitely a good exam 😛

I also need to sit down again and fiddle with my schedule for next semester.  With the idiocy of the university, I need to find one more credit.  The problem, however, is that I doubt my schedule will stay as neat as it was before.  I need a neat schedule so that I can get off-campus and work, instead of having to work somewhere on campus.  If I have to stay on-campus, it’s not worth finding a job elsewhere for the summer and then be left with nothing next semester.  I needed a neat schedule so I could find a new job this summer and just go to fewer hours for the semester.  It’s looking more and more like that’s not going to be possible. 

I’m debating whether or not I’m going downtown tonight for my friend’s party.  I’m not really in a party mood today, plus I don’t want to deal with the drinking.  They’re starting out at a restaurant, but they won’t be there long – they’re going bar hopping afterwards and well…I don’t drink.  I don’t plan on ever drinking a drop of alcohol.  And really, it’s not something I want to deal with.  I’ve also begun to realize that I’m much more comfortable in smaller groups of people than in large ones. 

Okay, time to head to my discussion section on the History of American Business…*boring*
