The fall semester has began, and courses have already started. I just received my books today for both courses and am very thankful that ordering them went a lot more smooth this semester than it did over summer. I am guessing that having my books before the semester is half-over will be helpful.

I am also looking forward to the fact that I have a full semester again. Typical grad courses meet once a week, every other week. Over summer, they have a much faster every week schedule, that tries to cram a full semester into half of the time. While the content was definitely manageable, doing it while working full time and still trying to find time to enjoy the summer didn’t always seem to work out the best.

In any case, I am already feeling that the Fall is going to be more relaxed with the longer two week gaps between assignments being due (even if they are much more lengthy assignments).

    I know. It’s amazing, I am taking a class that is easily three times the amount of busy work, but the extra time makes it manageable.
