the speed at which we live...
It blows my mind how quickly a week can get away from me... last week I got sick (again) and didn't work out until Thursday... I hardly ate either, and the emergenC I downed like it was going out of style had me feeling healthy again by Wednesday evening. I also finished my second week of spring term. When I'm in school the weeks seem condensed. I only have classes on M-W-F, but those three days are LONG (8a-4:30p, with 1 1hr break) and Tuesday and Thursday seem just long enough for me to catch my breath before diving in again.
Microbiology is my best class this term, I am absolutely FASCINATED by what we're learning about the microbial world.
Chemistry is a close second... the professor is awesome (such a contrast to last term) and the expectations are straight forward and I believe I'll do well.
Physiology is also a good class, my only complaints are that the Lab is more of a supplemental lecture than an actual "Lab" and that the professor is SO FREAKING SMART that she has a hard time simplifying the concepts and differentiating between the details we need to know, and those that we don't... because as she lectures EVERYTHING seems important.
I can't believe that we're mid-February of 2007 already... I keep lamenting the fact that I hardly remember 2006 at all... There are specific EVENTS I remember... but the year itself just went too fast.
I wish I knew how to slow down and experience each day more fully... instead of feeling like the hours have suddenly gotten away from me when I look at the clock every evening and its time to go to bed.
Input is welcome.

Hey, Brenna, I definitely know what you mean about time flying by. I know it's difficult with the kids, and school, and all your other responsibilities, but it's important to take time for yourself. Maybe it's not realistic to take time every day, though it should be, in the ideal world, but once every week. My son goes to my mother's usually one weekend a month, and I find that the Saturday morning and afternoon I get to myself helps immensely!!
By the way, congrats on the twins! I'm sorry I missed their arrival! I haven't kept up with the blogs I used to read in a loooong time. (Your blog is definitely one way to keep track of the days going by, too!)
