It's that time of year again...

This is my least favorite time of year, with nothing to look forward to except spring break, it's hard to keep motivated. To make matters worse, my spring break for high school isn't until April. It's the time of the year where all the students lose their motivation, me included, and the teachers pile on more than ever to keep on pace for the year. My freshman and sophomore year weren't all that bad and I kept busy all year round and kept my grades up, but now that I'm in the second semester of junior year I just can't seem to summon up the will power to do anything productive. This could just be due to the collective attitude of not wanting to do anything at school, but for me it's been due mainly to the fact that I've bitten off a bit more than I can chew. I have to juggle a full day at high school, then run up to UW Sheboygan which leaves me getting home around 9 o clock on Mondays and Wednesdays. That's a fourteen hour school day! In addition, on days that I don't have to go to the campus I go straight to work from school, leaving me with little time as well. I haven't had a day off in months, and quite honestly, it's taking a toll. This was a usual week, and I've been able to manage it well, as it keeps me busy but also gives me some time to do what I want. Unfortunately I've been hit with multiple other jobs to do lately as well. I've been house sitting for 10 days now and despite the fact that it's a gorgeous house, it's nearly impossible to get anything done. Taking care of all the animals and chores, and running back and forth from the house to my house, and to school and work has left me totally burnt out and putting ridiculous amounts into my gas tank each couple days. Not only that, but they have a computer that's too slow to do anything on so anytime I need to use the computer I have to drive 20 minutes and come home. It's just these little individual things that are really getting to me the past couple weeks,  and I think it's about time for a break.

Well, that seems like enough ranting for one day but now I have the blog post to check off my list of things to do and I can go run back to the other house. I suppose my  argument for this is that the time of transition between winter and spring is god-awful and that it's going to be hard to make it through this time around.
