A great to-do list

I'm not looking forward to scheduling classes for the summer and fall. I have no plan and I suck at going to see advisors. I also need to take a math placement exam at Macomb because surprise! I have yet to take any math classes for some odd reason. I like math too, it's something structured when my life is chaotic. I figured I would delay an algebra class because I need to take my GRE come August and a refresher in math is much needed.

I'm also starting to look at graduate programs and applying this fall is a daunting task. Along with the cost of the GRE, application fees go hand in hand with applying. Do not get me started on how much it costs to actually attend graduate school. Is succumbing to the man and getting a job a better option? I don't think so, I don't want to cut my educational adventures short. Before I know it I'll be three kids deep and the whole thing'll be a bust.

For the time being, I'm more interested in investing in my ever-increasing book collection. My latest purchase: Final Exits by Michael Largo is an illustrated encyclopedia of how we die. While at the Borders counter I also picked up a copy of Szunyoghy and Feher's Human Anatomy for Artists for ten bucks, hell yeah! I sincerely believe the cashier was questioning my motives, but trust I have none. I just love books, especially ones on anatomy. It's like a weakness. This past Christmas I received a copy of the Barnes and Noble G'd out special edition of Grey's Anatomy with all the bells and whistles. It's gorgeous. 

It's time to get serious though. I must allocate my funds to impending doom and rejection. Hey adulthood, when did you spring up and start feeling real??
