The Work Load begins...

So officially my week of classes is over, and finally the work load begins. All my classes went well, they just take some getting used to I think. Unfortunately I am rather swamped for the weekend. For Shakespeare I have to read Romeo and Juliet and take notes on it (but it does help that I have already read it a couple times before). For American Postmodernism I have 4 handouts to read and take notes on. British History I have to write another 500 word paper on "Why has Dover Castle been called "the key to England"? How successfully did it defend England between 1066 and 1945?" and I have to get my paper on Thomas Becket back either Friday after we get back from Dover or on Monday. For Ethics I have to go buy the text (it costs 5 pounds) tomorrow and then I have to read the first 2 pieces and answer the questions posted on Blackboard. And finally for Modern Britain I have to pick a topic to start analyzing and organize my first 2000 word essay which is due on the 13th. So busy busy. We are going to Dover as I mentioned before on Friday adn we should be there for most of the day, our itinerary looks like this:

Leave Canterbury 10:00am

Arrive in Dover 11:00am

Depart Dover 4:00pm

Arrive in Canterbury again 5:00pm

Now it's wed. and I have 4 days to do all this work, but it's just sort of overwhelming me... I just need to take a deep breath and take it one assignment at a time. And before long it will all be done and then another week of assignments will come and go... etc. And pretty soon the semester will be over and I'll be flying home (which reminds me I should consult with mom about how I'm getting home)

Anyway I need to write a mass e-mail and some postcards. :)
