phules gold
Okidokee artichokee, I'm home for the day after my only MW class. Don't think me lazy, I have 3 TTH classes, or will providing I can talk the teacher into letting me into his class, and one 4 hour class on friday. Monday wednesday is my lazy day. Sort of.
You see, parking is such an issue at this bizzare college that I'm considering arriving ever morning at ateast 7:30 to aquire a parking spot, even though my classes dont start till later in the morning. From there I'll probably go into the library and study/do homework ect. I'm not sure if I'm reading too heavilly into the first day speeches of the classes i've had so far, but they seem pretty hard. Pretty hard indeed. I'm gonna need that extra time in he library to study up.
Not much else to say, I've talked to a few guys on campus, two of which were in class with me. No real bonds there yet, obviously, but still, there's hope. Despite the difficulty I predicted, it's quite easy to flare up a conversation with californians. Almost as easy as with a Texan. Speaking of, I find myself really missing some aspects of my old campus, but nothing that I didn't already know that I'd miss. Uncle J.J. for instance, is about 1-10 on the list. He was an awesome prof, best one yet. I have his email, I think I'll email him today just to see what he's up to.
I end on a funny note. Enjoy!
