Summer, oh, Summer ! TerryMay 9, 2011 0 comments

uToday you get to grow stronger by dealing with new and unique challenges ............. Today you can envision a dream and then immediately start working to bring that dream to life.
— Ralph Marston

The above text is an excerpt from today's motivator on the greatday.com  which is one of my favourite sites of all times. Read full motivator: http://www.greatday.com/#ixzz1Ls85YRNl

I got some disappointment in my last semester's grades but today marks a new day, a new semester, a new chance to do better and improve on  my GPA. 

As I read the motivator, I felt like Ralph  Marston was speaking to me, re-enforcing my resolve to get over the B and work towards my summa cum laude goals. I'm shaking loose the disappointment and getting set for abundant knowledge and above all, enjoying my classes.

I had two class sessions and am so looking forward to summer semester. My Poetry across cultures class is gonna be awesome so will Introduction to Print Media . I like lecturers who get one to think beyond what one already knows, lecturers who are open to varied opinion amongst other qualities and the above two possess them.

I'm looking forward to a fruitful semester in and out of class. I can't wait to fly, I'm alive.

I'm off to read Songs of Songs in the Bible. It think the content will be useful for my poetry class.

Adios!

Usually when I start exhibiting signs of inconsistency or 'slow down' it's because I'm experiencing bloggers block, which am not, in fact I have so much to write about or procrastination, which by the way I have since fully recovered, Amen ! but this time it's none of the above rather one of my internet 'switches' blew on Monday probably due to KPLC's random blackouts. The other options have flaws; 3G is kinda expensive, I'm feeling the pinch right now and my phone can't handle large contents, it falls in the category Kenyans call mulika mwizi, ha ha !!
My internet provider has been trying to get the damn 'thingy' hope he gets it tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the beginning of a new semester, summer semester. Incidentally coming up are Kenya's coldest months, so much for summer, huh!
 I miss blogging, can't wait for that switch.

A wonderful Mother's day!
