#obsessed: American Boy (ft. Kanye West) — Estelle

This is a bit of a #throwbackthursday — I honestly don't know why this song has been stuck in my head. I have no idea where it came from; I don't think I've heard it anywhere recently, but, "Take me to New York I want to see LA," has been repeating in my head endlessly. Nevertheless, I thought it would make a good #obsessed music post because I haven't blogged much recently and these are generally short posts.

Aside from that, a few life updates, mostly good news. First and foremost, I am officially enrolled in all of my classes this semester! I am settling into a routine and I enjoy the content of every class so far. There is an identifiable point in the near future where I will be completely caught up with everything from previously waitlisted classes and will stay on top of the new assignments coming in. I'm about 78% caught up with that work, and what will help even more with that this weekend is that my PS191 professor gave everyone an extension until next Tuesday for the essay. This gives me a breather so I can blog right now and I don't feel as harried by the due date and time constraints. I can avoid getting burnt out and finish everything by this weekend.

The apartment search for next year is going well; while walking to the grocery store, Anisha and I stumbled upon a cute little house with two units listed, both of which were a) larger and b) cheaper than what I currently am living in. Last but not least, archery has started again, which makes me very happy. The only downside of that is that my arms, shoulder, and back are sore again from moving up a bow weight. Overall, however, I am looking forward to the rest of this semester and I am incredibly optimistic for how it's going to go. ◊
