Sooo, I'm about two weeks into the second semester here, and already I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. I've discovered every class I'm registered for is expecting a major presentation at some point, and that scares the SHIT out of me!! I really hate presenting my ideas in front of a class. The one professor is expecting it to be done with a partner, no less! I've always sort of felt there was this group dynamic going on in projects where there's the one person who totally knows how they want to go about everything, and the other(s) is/are pretty much lost and left to feel like dead weight. I'm always afraid that I'M that "other". But, I can only do my best to encourage myself that I will NOT make a fool of myself (and my partner), and that I DO understand the material.
On the bright side, I have arranged it so that I can visit some of my best friends in Edmonton in less than two weeks, and hopefully recharge the mental reserves in the process. Its just so hard to believe another school year is almost done, again! I must admit, I've been thinking more and more about taking a year off when I've gotten this second year out of the way. I feel like now that I've sort of discovered more of who I am and what I like, I don't necessarily want to *stop* partying, I just want to party in a way that I haven't really had the chance to, until now. I don't really expect anyone to fully understand what I mean by all this, but if you do, cheers!!!
