She dropped a tear more rare than pearl

I can­not help but feel sheep­ishly guilty that I’ve neg­lected to post any­thing – any­thing – at all. Having elided details about the first half of September until now, I hope I can write down some of my med­it­a­tions here.

I feel slightly over­whelmed by my course­load this term, but I’m not sur­prised in the least. It is just as, if not more, chal­len­ging than I had pre­dicted to juggle so many courses. I can’t really say which courses I enjoy the most, but I feel that I have a rather well-​rounded group of instruct­ors. If I weren’t so eas­ily intim­id­ated, I would love to meet them personally.

My extra­cur­ricular activ­it­ies have kept me rather busy. I can’t really say that I didn’t expect it, but I’m sur­prised by the intens­ity with which they come at me. I worry that calls for my resig­na­tion are merely pending; I fear that I hear whis­pers of my incom­pet­ence echo in the hal­lowed halls. I hope I don’t disappoint.

Work! It’s taken so much of my time, but it’s really rather reward­ing if frus­trat­ing. I’m cur­rently on the fence about tutor­ing – I feel as if I don’t have the time but I really enjoy doing it. I’m sure my stu­dents can find other tutors but that thought doesn’t assuage my guilt-​ridden mind.

At any rate, it’s time to keep my chin up and get set for a very inter­est­ing term indeed. I bought a lab coat today so I finally feel as if I’m a real sci­ent­ist. Huzzah!

Optimism pre­vails!
