Man, this is such a busy week. Midterms season is finally catching up with me...getting no sleep, doing navy PT regularly in addition to my own workouts, and doing an insane amount of schoolwork all result in a very hectic and draining life.

Yesterday I met with my personal  librarian and she definitely helped me find the sources I need for my 12 page paper on children that serve in the military.Today I went to furniture class from 9-10:15 and then came back and crashed in my bed. I've been going so hard  that I now always feel really dizzy and lightheaded from the exhaustion and workload combined, but hey - I just get naps when I can and keep moving forward.
I woke up from my nap and realized I slept through calculus....again. But I did wake up in time to head over to my residential college, Pierson, and see Ms. Peggy while I got lunch. I've been doing work ever since lunch, and I'm making some serious progress. My evening has consisted of a heavy amount of research for my paper on child soldiers...and a few fist pumps of victory when I succeed in my work. Once again...celebrate the small victories.

8 days until my girlfriend flies up for the Navy Birthday Ball! Tomorrow I've gotta head over to the Yale Bowl to practice sword detail with our Staff Sergeant... that should be fun!
Back to work now.
