Impatience. It's a common trait in my typical day currently. But it's joined by the feeling of not wanting time to pass. I feel like this is the typical feeling of most college kids when the end of the semester is in sight, but there are still a multitude of projects, papers, and tests standing in the way. This semester is worse for me though. Not because I'm graduating, but instead it's because a mere 3 weeks or so after (maybe a little less?) the end of the semester I'm leaving the country. I'm spending a bit over two months studying abroad this summer, and this is of course stressing me out for all kinds of reasons.
There are all sorts of things that can go wrong with study abroad. From plane delays to creepy homestay families, I don't really know where to start on my list of worries. Although the big one is probably "WHAT IF I RUN OUT OF MONEY?" Because I mean, being abroad is really expensive. And not only that, but I'm going to be staying in Paris and London which are some of the most expensive cities in the world. But it's also exciting. But first I have to finish paying for it, and then there's the whole figuring out what to pack and... Let's just say I have pretty far to go before I leave.
I feel like some of my professors are bored with these projects, and it's kind of hard for me to be interested if they aren't. I can handle a lot, but how can I focus on making logos when I have to focus on building the perfect Parisian wardrobe?
I'm dragging my feet, and I can't seem to focus. I've done nothing outside of play pokemon, pet my cat, and look at some illustrator documents that I haven't worked on since last weekend even though I have a full ad campaign, catalog cover, contents, and sample spread, invitation, and website due for this project. I haven't even been to the letterpress studio since class, and I have to have my first color printed by tuesday. And I still don't even have a name for my beer app.
Basically I suck, and I'm currently a horrifically unmotivated student.
