College/Life :/

Soo college is not like high school. College is kinda scary. College is making me very concerned about my final grade in Astronomy. Basically I have 5 tests. First one doesn't count towards our grade. Second, third, and fourth count. But the nice part is that our lowest grade out of those three grades is dropped. after that, our final grade is based off of a final exam and the two highest grades we've received. It's a bit of a relief, but I'm now considering everything. And I mean everything, everything. One: College classes are extremely demanding. Although my first Français test wasn't that bad, it will most definitely get harder. Solar System Astronomy is, understandably, more demanding than French and will require pounding with a rock (to keep the information in my head). Two: I need money. Meaning I have to work. All praise be to Athena for creating California's Great America! But, there's always a complication. I cannot work Monday-Sunday unlimited as I previously told them. My last class (Astronomy) ends at 2:45, and with Public Trans, it'll take 2+ hours to get to Great America in time for a shift. Of course, I further complicated things today. I told my boss that I couldn't work until 3pm. As in three o'clock post meridian. (But wait Axanti, you just said that public transportation takes at least two hours!) "Exactly." Three: Family drama. Enough said. Four: Hmmm. Can you give me directions to my social life? It was just here a moment ago, can't seem to find it now... Five: My poor, poor, wonderful boyfriend. We have a hard time with our long distance relationship as it is, and now I'm busy from an ungodly 7:30am to whenever Great America schedules me. I can only hope that he will continue to support and love me as he has been thus far, and not become irritated in the time that we cannot text, call or Skype. Bless his heart for dealing with me for this long. Six: I just felt like typing a number six. As much as I bitch and complain, i have a very good life. I have two loving, supporting parents (who will be celebrating their 20th anniversary next year), my own room, technology at my disposal, a mother that works at Stanford University and a Father that works at Apple's corporate office. (I won't say too much or Apple might have me assassinated, they're very serious about keeping their information tight.) My life is... great. Sure, I picked six things to complain about, because complaining is what I do. I'm a complainer. I hate that about myself, I can't help it, I wish I could change it, but alas I cannot. I complain. I suppose that's it for today. I kinda want to add a picture so that I don't seem like.. I don't know, a pessimist? I'm really not. If you ask me about things that upset me storm clouds will move in and it will begin to rain. But my overall outlook on life is optimistic. I am excited about life, I am on the edge of my seat to see what will happen particularly in the next month and next few months of my life. I'm ready to be surprised. I'm ready to face the world and it's challenges with my support system being the wind on my back. I'm excited! I cannot wait. But.. I'm also apprehensive. Can you blame me?
