Overwhelmed!

Overwhelmed! That is how I feel right about now. I have officially been to all of my classes (Except Chem Lab) for the first day of the semester and the stress & LOAD of work that each entails is just now coming back to me (I tried to forget about it over the summer!
).
First and foremost, you need to make sure that your bill has been paid for, whether by scholarships, loans or straight up cash/check. And if you have loans, you need to contact lenders, your school and 10 other random people to make sure that everything is set up correctly and you are following all of the necessary steps. If you have scholarships, chances are you find yourself getting called into a number of offices, needing to write multiple thank you letters and marking important dates on your calendars for special donor functions. And then again, if you are taking some money straight from your bank account, you get to watch as the numbers go down, down, down...
.
Yet, despite all of the craziness that is going on, I know that going to college, challenging myself and getting a good education is well worth the time & effort. Getting overwhelmed is going to happen, folks; However, don't let it take over for too long. Life's too short! Make a list and just take it one line at a time. Now get out there and enjoy the weekend!
