I have to admit, it's a lot harder to vent, open up, and expresses my stresses, confusions, and concerns on here when I have the potential of running into my readers on any given day. It's much "safer" when I'm 10,000 miles away from anyone and everyone.
Having said that, I'm feeling in over my head, to say the least. I'm not going to pretend that I have anything more going on in my life than anyone else, but I do know that I'm not doing a good job of keeping up and balancing everything. I am so scared that I'm going to do exactly what I did the last two times I attempted graduate school ... fail! And I'm feeling more and more like I'm on that track every day. It seems as though the things that keep balance in my psychological, physical, and social life (relationships, photography, running, climbing, SLEEPING) only get in the way and drag down my academic life. However, if I don't include those necessary aspects of life, I don't do well with school either because I feel so stressed and out of whack. It's a catch-22. I'll be amazed if I manage to get the mandatory B- or better in this class. If I don't, I'm officially free from school ... and from my job! If I do maintain the necessary minimum GPA, that just means that I have a potential additional 3-4 more years of suffering through this hell. AND THIS IS ONLY ONE CLASS!!!!
Life was so much easier when I was a Colorado snowboarding bum!

I have a lot of days i feel like running off and becoming a bum, but instead I just stay put and be a bum.
Hang in there, make lists, outlook your whole life, it helps you realize what you don't have time for.
You can do it.(think rob Schneider - Waterboy)
Keep at it Jeff. So far so good.
