First week done!

The first week of school is always the most exciting and slightly stressful.
I think its the syllabus that's what freaks me out because its this massive list of what were going to be doing in that class.

I love lists but having one that goes on and on is daunting. But at the same time it just lays out the entire semester.
That cant be too bad.

But Friday night everyone else is going out and quite frankly all I want to do is sit on my couch and let my tired muscles rest. I was literally hobbling around yesterday , and oh stairs are the worst. Going up at least, going down isn't too bad. My butt and thighs are the worst.

But I know that all this time at the gym and eating healthy is for something.
I used to not like going because I was out of shape and didn't want to make a fool of myself.
And quite frankly I still do. Flutter kicks are just comical.
I'm not the strongest but i'm working on it and I think that counts for something. My core is definitely not as strong as i'd like. But it will come with time!

But the first week started off rudely with a 5:45 am alarm. Well I got up at 6, had some coffee on an empty stomach which is a bad idea.
But then the week came and went.
I reconnected with old friends and made some new ones.
Remembered why I love my major so much.
Started going to gym
Took on a fundraising effort to send The Independent to LA for a conference, which I hope to god I can pull off. But I literally would be too stressed if I didn't do it because I really want to go.

But I can do this.
6th semester here I come!
