uphill, downhill

I think I'm coming to the rather terrifying realization that I could get by with doing far less work in college classes than I'm used to. I could probably get away with skipping a lot of the reading in both of my most advanced classes, which are fascinating but easy enough now as the work for those don't pile up until later. I'm frankly suspicious by how smoothly and quickly things are going right now - ah, the joys of taking only social science classes and being almost done with my psych major. [livejournal.com profile] eyepice_simile probably wants to strangle me because I don't have problem sets and far fewer long papers than I used to.

I don't know how this works - I'm a junior now; isn't this supposed to be the hardest year? (Let's not think about how far behind I'm on recruiting mentors for work.) I'm really tempted to fill the patches in my schedule by working on a new research project for another professor examining the relationship between depression and heart disease because my inner nerd needs something to occupy it.

I've officially started the paperwork for grad school. Navigating the red tape is challenge enough for now.
