Essays and Libraries

Summer on our living room wall

I have to settle down and get going on these two essays before the weather gets any nicer. 

At my home university, grades are made of several different assessments. Usually, there's nothing worth over 40%.  It blows my mind that each essay is worth 100% of my grade for each course! It's kind of frustrating because I'm not sure what they expect. The structure and format for the essays are different. They give us an exam date... but we don't actually write an exam. The exam date is the date that our essays are due.

I finally found a really good library for studying. It's right across from my campus. I've been there twice already this week, but I haven't gotten much done yet. At least it's a start...

I'm really glad that Sara is here with me. It's nice to have some one from the same home university that's in the same faculty and taking the same courses as I am. We're both in the same situation, so we have each other to rely on.
