I’ve had a pretty good day, which is great because recently I’ve felt very stressed because of my calculus test. I took that today, though, and I think I aced it. There were only five questions and they were easy, so hopefully I didn’t make some stupid mistake. I really think I did well, though. We just finished a physics study session for the homework that’s due this Friday and I’m feeling okay about that. It was nice when I figured out one of the problems Jess and Tiffany had given up on; go me. We’ve still got several left, but we plan on meeting again Wednesday to finish.

Last night was the last straw for my Spanish class. I was already stressed about doing the homework for it because I knew that I should be studying calculus instead of figuring out which verb goes where in a paragraph, but then when I logged in online, I saw that the six exercises that had been there the day before were gone. My professor never posted due dates, so I hadn’t known that they had to be done by, apparently, before yesterday. I decided to drop the class because of that, and because every time I was in class or doing homework, I felt like I was wasting my time because I could think of so much other stuff I could be doing that would be related to my major. I’ll take Spanish sometime over the summer when if I don’t take classes I feel like a bum, but I don’t want to kill myself with all engineering courses. I only have 15 hours now, which feels like a tiny amount. I had 15 my first semester last year because they didn’t want freshmen to take any more, but then I had 17 last semester and I was fine. I probably would have been fine with keeping Spanish, but all the extra work for it was frustrating when I know that I can learn the language on my own without having to spend money and valuable studying-physics time on it. I hope I made the right decision. It’s been bugging me all day today (I dropped it last night) because I hate giving up on stuff, and that’s what it feels like. I hope this doesn’t affect me adversely in the future. Argh…
