Are we there yet?
I have lost most of my motivation for school. I was starting to feel this way before we decided to start looking for ways to move closer to Indiana. It seems to get worse every day.
It’s a shame, too. The classes I’m taking this semester are really going to be beneficial. They’re the type of classes I actually came down here to take. I’m just ready to be done.
Steve, a friend at school, says my lack of motivation is actually a good thing. He says it shows that I’m ready to get out and “spread my wings,” kind of like a teenager in the final months before moving out of his (or her) parents’ house. You just go through the motions until you’re finally out on your own.
I think he’s just blowing smoke, but at least he’s trying to make me feel better. It doesn’t make me feel better, but I appreciate his effort.
Unfortunately, I have another year of classes after this semester.
Well I understand the reason behind your present feeling, but just remember it will be over in a year or so. Please don’t let my health stop either of you from doing the work our Lord has planed for you. I do appreciate the thought and yes I would love to be close to the kids but serving our Lord and spreading his word to those who do not know his power is much more important than me.. Keep focused in your goals and finish this out.
My present feelings about school don’t really have to do with whether we move in May or not. It’s one of those feelings that you get right before spring break – but I’ve felt like this all semester…even before the semester began.
I’m just ready for a break from school. Not just one week.
If it turns out that we stay down here, of course I’ll finish my classes and wrap up my degree. I’m not really considering dropping out or anything like that. I’m just…well…I’m ready to be done, that’s all.
I see a light at the end of the tunnel, but it’s just not nearly as close as I’d like for it to be.
Which Steve was it? If it was L, he may know what he’s talking about. If it’s J…. well, he may be full of crap. Stupid people who are graduating this year.
I am somewhat less enthusiastic this semester myself. It seems like there is way too much still ahead of me.
PS Dr. Bembry still has you on the role. Maybe he didn’t get the memo.
Yes, it’s Mr. L. I think there’s some truth to what he’s saying.
I think part of my disenfranchisement is coming from the fact that several people we started out with are graduating, and it just feels like I have so much more to do. It feels like it’s never going to end.
So, does that mean I should show up for the Hebrew quiz tomorrow?
(OK – so the spell check on Live Journal can tell me that I spelled disenfranshisement correctly, but doesn’t recognize Christy as a real word. What’s up with that?)
