Another quick update.

I don't exactly know how many people actually read my blog but here comes another post. 

This quarter is coming to an end. Week 10 is this upcoming week and I'm meeting with a couple people from one of my classes later to finish a quick group project for presentations on Thursday. This quarter has gone by extremely quickly. I would like to say I've done a lot of work this past quarter pertaining my internship and my education. I've gotten pretty decent grades, I can only hope that my most recent project turned in and my second major paper receive just as equally decent grades. Decent being above a 3.5. Although I am a little disheartened that I did not get a 100 on my second Crime and Punishment midterm, I did get a 98. I can only work to do better for the final - Hopefully for the final, I score 95 or above. That'll get me in the 3.9-4.0 range for the end of the quarter. With my other two classes though, it is really hard to determine the grade I will end up with there. Partially because they are two of the hardest classes I have taken in a long time consisting of A TON of readings. Hopefully I end up with decent grades for those classes too. 

Regarding my internship, I am learning a lot. I've been assigned several cases to work and I think I am doing fairly well. However, the last two internship days were cut short thus pushing back my progress on the cases. I hope to be able to finish my stuff soon. 

Yes, it seems like my life revolves around school and work. However, I am trying to balance it out. Anyway, I have a ton of readings and stuff to catch up on… but I will be doing that after watching House of Cards - I want to thank my U.S Race and Ethnic Politics professor for getting me started on watching House of Cards, it's a really great Netflix series. 

Aside from that, I haven't really been updating this blog mostly because of my hectic schedule, which won't seem to clear up anytime soon. I will try to post at least twice or three times a month on this blog to update it. I've mostly been keeping a journal on events regarding my life… I have found keeping a journal to be extremely therapeutic, however that means that I have neglected my blog - which I will not do anymore. 

Last point, it's really hard clearing up my schedule for just anyone. So please do not take offense if something in my schedule comes up causing me to cancel plans. I don't want to burn bridges, but trust me, I will if I must. I cannot stand people who do not understand how high I hold my priorities. If you do not understand that, you cannot be a part of my life, why? Because I do not need someone holding me back instead of pushing me forward. 

Anyway, that is all I have to say regarding this quick update. I'll try to post again sometime later this month… probably and most likely after finals!
