Ready, steady, go!

Well classes officially started today. I woke up at 7, ate some blueberry muffin tops (thanks for introducing me to such a delicious cereal Jarid =D), packed the backpack, and started walking to campus. I've taken care of all the first day bullshit, all of that syllabus and rules discussion chit chat and such. Found where my classes, so far, are. I even spent 135 bucks on a parking permit for the year. Not bad if you ask me, considering I had to pay 300 something for a permit in the school lot last year.
Started off the day with Mammalogy, the study of mammals and not to be confused with mammology, the study of breasts. I like the professor for this class, had him for Ecology last year. I also share the class with my friend Rick, who although almost more nerdy then I can stand, I'm glad I got a class with him again. After Mammalogy I trecked the vast distance down a flight of stairs and down the hall to my next class, Organic Chemistry. This class I'm a touch worried about. Chem is rather complicated as I'm sure everyone knows, and last year I kind of had to fight to not get a rather low grade. Maybe I'll be fine, we'll see. After that I went off to Biometrics, which is an offshoot of statistics aimed at life. Aka Stats for the Biologist. This is a small class, I mean TINY. There were maybe 8 people in class today. Otherwise I'm not really looking forward to it, math is icky.
After those classes, each about an hour long, I got to walk home, empty the dishwasher and get the sink clear for the first time in probably about a month (only about 3 days that I've had to deal with) and made myself some mac n cheese. Now I'm blogging, watching Wayne's World (sort of) and listening to Passion Pit's "Little Secrets".
I'm in love with this song. I don't actually have it so I've been youtube-ing it and listening to it that way. And I've listened to it a lot. I listened to it probably 4 times before bed last night and I've been listening to it since about 3 or 4 renditions before I started writing this blog. I need to get it so I can throw it on my itunes "favorites" list and mix it in with some other good songs.

And that's my day so far. I still need to go to my night class at 5, which will last to a disgusting 7:45. Hopefully I'll show up there and it'll be cancelled or something. Then I can be a nerd and draft mtg with John at his place! High hopes. I guess I don't mind if I do have to go to class though, I don't really want to pay for a draft.. Well, that's all I got to speak of for now. Until later.

  1. If you ever have organic chemistry questions, ask me! I'm supposed to know them for the MCAT this spring :D
    But seriously, it'll be fun.

  2. Classes already? Hawhaw. Good luck, you college student, you! : )
    PS: Statistics = fun. Statistics aren't like most math. They're applicable to everyday life! Or Life in general, considering you're studying biometrics.

  3. Catey is sooo wrong. Statistics=wayyyy worse than most math. Although they can be applicable. and I had a terrible class. Good luck!
