After finishing my summer internship and traveling for 3 weeks, I fully expected to come back to school and enjoy a relatively quiet Fall semester. Not even a month into it, I realize that I was clearly was out of my mind. Second year so far has been absolutely crazy with all the activities going on. My classes, though I picked them myself, quickly fill up any time I have. I find that I’m pretty tired most days since I’m up early and to bed late with almost no time to rest in between. Heck, I’ve been chowing down on lunch during class because I often only have 5 minutes to grab something.

So I’ve decided to make a temporary escape this weekend and head to Orlando. Disney World can’t hurt things can it? I’m loading up on a season pass, too, so in case things get hairy again, I can zip down there on a cheap flight and spend a couple of days. At least this sounds like a good excuse to keep looking for the bright side of things.

For now, I’m still deciding on my direction for where I’ll be next August. With some big deadlines ahead, it’s quite easy this year to have a narrow focus on which opportunities are appealing. I also find myself so much better prepared this time around. While it’s frustrating that the whole recruiting bit can absorb a ton of time, it’s reassuring this year since I feel I’m making some good progress.
