Craziness Ensues

Ha! I am just laughing at my last blog entry. My life is obviously two extremes because now I am going CRAZY with too many things to do. Here is a typical day in the life of an optometry grad student:

6:15 am- Alarm. I can't complain. Dan's woke up (and woke me up) about two hours ago and has already left. Stumble to the kitchen to let the dogs out.
6:45 am- Off to catch the metro train. This way I have a 40 minute commute on the train and I can get much more don than being stuck in traffic.
7:45 am- Arrive at school for my 8:00 class.
8:00am-5:00pm- Listen to lecture after lecture without more than a 5 minute potty break (except an hour for lunch when I chat and study with friends).
5:15- Catch the metro to come back home.
6:15- Arrive at home. Laugh at my puppies as they get sooo excited to see me.
6:30-7:00- Dinner. Dan and I usually watch a TIVOed Jeopardy and compete against eachother. We don't actually keep score, because when we have it gets ugly (dorks, I know).
7:00-12:00- My five hours of studying. Maybe fit in a work out. I'm not sure if this is standard for all of my classmates, but I've found this is about how long it takes to barely keep up with things. Sometimes during this time I will do something around the house. This schedule shows me just why my house is a disaster most of the time. It's depressing to feel like you are always sprinting and never quite keeping up.

So, as you can see, this is why I don't have much of anything exciting to blog about. This is my oh so predictable life. I love it most of the time, though!
