Well, things here in Austria seem to be moving along at a more reasonable pace, as I am beginning to find a balance with living/school/cultural integration. As I have stated in my last few postings, life here continues to challenge me. And outside of the continued life challenges here, my schooling remains equally challenging. There is the omipresent importance of "time management", which has been a bit of a crash course for me lately. As many of my other former Peace Corps volunteer might agree, when living as a Peace Corps volunteer there is an abundance of time. Attempting to fill each day with meanful tasks was a job in and of itself. I remember reviewing my entire list of tasks and spreading them out over the course of a week, which in a modern society might take only a few hours to complete. Now, my life is again scheduled to the minute, and having a daily planner is the only way to keep track of the many projects/assignments/homework that I have to complete each week.
Other than that, I received a summary report from each of my classes yesterday. It appears that with all the quizzes, assignments, homework, and discussion board submissions, I seem to be in the "B" range. It's not easy to get an "A" average at this school, and they say that if you are found in the "C" range than you can be very proud. So, I'm feeling good about my "B" average. I think once I can get a handle on the work-load and find a balance between quality/quantity, my grade scale will rise. Hopefully! ;)
