Classes Begin

With 18 hours of class and 15-17 hours of work a week this is going to be a busy semester. There might be a chance that i will not be sane, but the Lord knows what is up and will see me through it.
As the first days have come and gone and I have been to all my classes and seen all the new syllabus, i must admit, i am in a state of Syllabus Shock. For those unaware of this disorder, or who have been out of school too long to remember the effects of such a disorder, allow me to explain.
Syllabus Shock is the dreaded disorder that comes on hard and fast upon the first day of class. As the professor hands you the syllabus and directs you through all that they anticipate for you to complete in the course, you may find yourself feeling dizzy and light headed. Some may say that it feels as if the world is on your shoulders and there is nothing to do about it, for you are unequipped to begin. An undescribable, and sometimes brief, state of cloudiness just kinda rests on you for a bit. The disorder, if not cared for properly, could cause serious mental problems, such as loss of sanity or the inabillity to think clearly. It usually lasts anywhere from 1 day- 2 weeks.
Well, having been hit with this 6 times in a row, i can now say that the panic is easing, the dizziness has subsided, and now, after taking the prescribed medication (organization), i am feeling much better about it all. Still remembering constantly to not think too much about it but to just take one step at a time. It will be brilliantly worked out by the Lord and im just gonna enjoy the ride. It shall be a fun one!
