Day 20...

Is it possible for a 32 year old woman who has put in only 20 days of college to have senioritis?

No, I did not say arthritis!  


While sitting in class today, I remembered why I work only part-time.  So I can enjoy days like today with my kids, friends or just with myself.  


Although technically, I was with "the kids" today.

This full-time student thing is throwing a giant wrench in my life of leisure, but I'm enjoying it!

Yes, as busy as I am, with as crazy a schedule as I have gotten myself into, I'm happy to be where I am.  
I'm not missing out on activities with the kids, I just don't clean my house!  I still hang out with my friends
(luckily for me, my good friend Trixie works at UWP), I just don't do my laundry!


I'm sure, in the next 40 years (I plan on graduating in 2050) I will have other days where the weather is begging me to quit school, or I miss something the kids are doing, but I have a feeling that I'm supposed to do something amazing with my life and school is part of that journey. Since I'm in it for the long haul, I better get used to it.

I wonder if senioritis gets worse for senior citizens?  Ask me in 30 years when I'm a 10th year junior at UWP!

Day 19...

was a blustery, beautiful day on campus.  Spring is officially here. In the 60 degree weather with 40 mph winds, I saw about a dozen girls in their triple layer tank tops.

I get the whole shedding the winter garb desire, but 3 tank tops...WTF?  Besides bare arms isn't that just good winter weather layering?  I mean, do you really need 2 other shirts hanging below the main one to achieve the look you are going for?

I am by no means a fashionista whatsoever, my favorite store is Goodwill for god's sake, but I just don't understand a trend that requires adding layers as the weather warms up.

I wonder if it is a safety technique for the 90 pounders? Adding extra layers (weight) may prevent the wind from blowing them all the way to Arthur.
