Summer dreamin

I keep having to double-check my planner. I always have had trouble with dates. I still can't believe its 2011. I usually type 2010 on the top of my papers, sometimes even 2009. That's more of a personal problem, though. I'm slightly more concerned about the fact that this is the last week of April. I stare at my iCal asking how can this week be the last full week of classes?

The only upside to this disturbing news is that my favorite holiday, Foxfield, is only four days away. There is far more troubling news to be dealt with. First, exams are approaching, and although these dates have been in my planner since the beginning of the semester, I stare at them, unprepared, in denial and disbelief. Second, I'm nearing the end of my second year. There's no way I'm halfway done. I always can go to grad school, right?
