Week 3- No Business Like "Snow" Business

     I haven't been this anxious since I was 12! I would stay up late, fingers crossed, listening to Magic 107.9 (as quietly as I could without alerting anyone in the house) for the eleven o'clock announcement of the local business and school closings. Fast forward twenty years, and the exciting, knuckle clenching anxiety still overwhelms me.

     Snow.

     On the flip side of my childlike excitement, is the engrossing adult related responsibility piling up. I know that the longer we stay out of class, the more work has to be done. This week is supposed to be our preliminary round of sifting through films and UNCW abstracts. The great part about a class like this (I know it is more than a class, it is a full on Festival & Conference, but for ease of classification and word space, I am saying class) is that the work load dissipates as the semester continues, which is the opposite way a typical class runs. The only problem with that is experiencing a situation like we are currently going through. Our initial semester work schedule is very heavy, so I hope that we don't miss anymore class.

     I will finish evaluating the first round of films after I go spend some time in the icy tundra.
