Today could only be described as an auspicious day: my first day of college classes. Its cool to think that college has started for real now, until I realized that this means my crazy adventures will probably be reduced in number and frequency for a little while. Especially since I’ll be spending a ton of time reading a bunch of classic novels (for this week, its Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein), writing countless papers, and solving endless amounts of physics and chemistry problems. Luckily for me, I’m going to be loving almost every single second of it. Because I’m super weird like that. Anyways… I walked into the wrong lecture hall today for physics (which I share with Stu). I went from having a great seat -left-handed desk, right near the front of the hall- to having a crappy seat –right-handed desk literally at the back of the class- which sucked, but not as much as being told that I lugged my physics text book for a mile for no reason. And that I have to purchase another $60-$90 of material for classes. Yeah college…
My
Carrilon course was alright, until we were assigned to read 68 pages in two
days… and chemistry was really exciting! Then I checked the assignment
schedule, and I felt an almost physical pain… But I’m still psyched for school!
Especially since I get to be assigned even more work tomorrow with my next day
of classes! Hooray! I’ll move on to talk about other things instead of focusing
on the negative…
Today was my first trip to the
all-you-can-eat 251 North, where I ran into a bunch of friends from high school
that are now sophomores at College Park, though the real joy was confusing and startling
Stu, Chaney, Q, and Co. when the Urbana kids crowded an old drum major from
marching band, making a public seen. After dinner, my mom came down from
Frederick to bring me my bike, and help me get a shelf for my room, amongst
other things. Off to IKEA I went! Now I have a 50 lb. package of high stakes
LEGOs sitting under my bed, needing to be assembled. Upon returning, I had
found movie night was in full swing, with tonight’s selection being Big Hero 6,
a heart-warming film that blatantly ignores the laws of physics and chemistry
and biology, never mind air traffic control regulations when they were flying
around that futuristic San Francisco, an area that I can only assume to be a
strict no-fly zone.
Well, I need to sleep, so it’s time
for bed tonight…
DFTBA
