Ce Semestre

About a month and a half into this semester, and classes are no less exhaustive than thrice before since I started up again. What makes this semester different though is living in Farmington and consequently having to spend the vast majority of my day away from home. The first three semesters, when we lived just down the street from the U, I was able to stop in, hang out, maybe even get in a nap before going into work. But, this semester, ce semestre, je n'ai pas beaucoup de temps de visiter ma famille, and I often, souvent, go into work early and work on my homework, which can, yes, be a good thing but which also, ultimately, wears me down to the point de presque quitter.

Le semestre started off strong, mais j'etais fatiguee rapidement parce que school and work are the only things I've been doing since I started classes again. J'espere que I could work less and be at home more avec ma fille et mon marie, mais je comprend que je dois de finir mes etudes avant je peut pursue other options. C'est difficile pour moi d'etre away so much, mais je sais que Eric et Colette understand pourquoi I have to be away so much. Apres je finira my degree, j'espere que toutes les choses will be better. Peut-etre nous pourrons acheter une maison. Peut-etre non. Mais, je crois que notre vie soit meilleure que maintenant.

Je ne regrette pas du tout though moving to Farmington. It has been a really great thing pour all of us despite its being so far from Salt Lake. Quelle bonne chance pour nous! To be able to live rent-free for a little while until we can save up some money to be able to buy a house of our own. It has vraiment been very helpful for us, and je ne pense que I could thank Heinz and Nancy enough for the opportunity they have given us.

Pour maintenant, je continue d'etudier et travailler. Un jour, un jour, un jour. One day, peut-etre.
