Back from Chicago and Ready to Rumble

I am back from my long weekend in Chicago. I have to say, mini-vacations are always too short and I could easily use a few more days to rest because I'm still tired. The dog didn't mind being shipped off to "grandma's house" but the birds did not appreciate a disruption in their schedule. I'm sure they're going to make us pay for leaving them behind, even if they did have a birdie-sitter.

I'm ready to start cracking down on my studying as finals are less than a month away. Since I have no more vacations planned, I'm ready to focus on finishing the term. My husband has two more long business trips planned, so maybe I'll be bored enough while he's gone to focus more on my studies than I've been doing.

I did have to sign up for next term's classes. My scheduled registration day was while I was in Chicago, so I had to access the hotel's business center computers to do that. Mildly nerve racking waiting for some guy to finish chatting online so I could hop on the computer. I tried giving him the death glare and loitering nearby but he persisted on using the computer and made my wait agonizing.

But I'm happy to report that I was able to register for next term. I'm taking Wills, Estates, and Trusts; Business Organizations; and Secured Transactions. Sounds so exciting? NOT! I'm sure I will be bored to tears, but hey, they are required courses, so I have to take them.

Secured Transactions is at an inconvenient time and day, so I'm tempted to swap it for another class and take it a different term. But that's hard to do when I'm going into my final year. So I'll weigh the pros and cons for a week or so until the time to change has passed and I'm stuck with it.
