draining finances and overwhelming panics.

my spring semester started yesterday. i dragged danny along with me to get my books. i ended up buying just two and it cost me close to $400. i tried to register my online code for my math class and the website told me that my instructor's page doesn't accept the code sequence i have. ughhh. i emailed her and she sent me a temporary code so i don't fall behind, but i will be extremely upset if i spent $100 on a code i cannot use and cannot return.

in the spirit of draining my bank account some more, today i went to the bank to get my rent check (see ya, $600!). i also did some price checking and it is cheaper to rent two of my books, so i also put in an order for that (another $130). i'll have to stop by the bookstore tomorrow to purchase the last two books i need. i would rent them, but it's questionable if i need the online access codes and i'd rather just be safe than sorry.

i went to my first anatomy and physiology class. my friend holly is in the class, so she saved me a seat. our professor seems eccentric in a good way. i do not like feeling rushed when i leave work. i get worried that i won't find a parking spot within four blocks of campus and make it to class on time. today i was also worrying about where the building was located. but everything worked out. i was able to leave work on time, i found a spot three blocks away, i found holly in our ginormous lecture pit, and i was able to get back to work by 130.

i spent tonight feeling tremendously overwhelmed though. i registered for my math class and did the assessment. i also did the first (and stupid) assignment for my biology of women class (a D2L scavenger hunt). and everything else is causing me to just scream and cry on the inside while keeping a perpetual "what have i done" look on my face.

with seven classes to try to keep straight, i think i might need to invest in a giant white board to keep my assignments all straight. or, you know, i could just learn how to use "the cloud" and put everything in my ical on my laptop or iPad.

it's almost 10pm. my apartment is nice and warm. i've had my oven on for about three hours trying to help heat up my apartment. but i have realized that i forgot to do laundry. it's too late now. i'll just have to wear real jeans tomorrow instead of leggings... maybe.
