Hope Road

First, a quick technical note: my domain name isn’t working. So I’m back to annakristine.wordpress.com for the time being. Sorry for the confusion; I’ll let you know when it’s working again. It will only cause problems if you’re reading in RSS. Otherwise, don’t worry about it.

I have two classes down and one to go for my last first day of school. This morning I had Theology I and Advanced Grammar. I think both of them are going to be really good. This will be the first theology class I’ve ever taken, which is strange because I’ve studied and thought about theology so much on my own. One interesting conundrum has popped up in my head already.

Advanced Grammar is exciting. No, really. I love grammar and I’ve never taken a straight grammar class before. I dislike diagramming and some of those participial problems, but other than that, I’m looking forward to the class.

Tonight is my night class, which meets once a week, and it is *deep breath* Advanced Public Speaking *groan*. I’ve already taken Speech Communication as a freshman requirement. I sort of enjoyed my last speech, but I am so bad at public speaking in general and I get so nervous that I am having to pray for a lack of anxiety about this class. So far I’m not worried about it, but I know that once I get the syllabus and the reality of all this public speaking smacks me in the face, I may experience some more anxiety. I’m just hoping that I’m not assigned a speech right away!

I haven’t been feeling well… what else is new?… so prayer would be appreciated. I wasn’t able to finish unpacking because I had a massive headache for most of the afternoon yesterday, and I was busy all evening. So I’m going to get to work on that now, then run some quick errands and eat dinner before class.

I got a babysitting job already, and that starts next week. Hopefully my work study job will start next week also. The nice thing is that I have every afternoon and evening free this week, so I have plenty of time to get organized, buy books, etc. If I ever get off my blog and start being productive, that is…
