On Getting Ready to Go Back to School

I went to campus today to get the one book that I could not get online. I was struck by how much I did not want to be on campus. Two years ago, I could not wait to get started. Now, I cannot wait to be done. I am trying not to have a bad attitude but it is hard. Most of the kids I had come to know are no longer there. My favorite professors have all abandoned me!
Here are the positives about going back:
--I will only be on campus 2 days a week.
--I am only taking 3 classes.
--I am taking Jane Austen. This is my saving grace. I cannot wait to immerse myself in her work.
--I have 2 of the best professors in their field.
--It is my LAST semester.

That is as good as it gets right now. Maybe once classes start in 2 weeks my attitude will be better.
