Classes, Life

After attending every class once, I can tentatively look forward to the rest of the semester. I don’t know if I’ll necessarily enjoy all of my classes, But I know one thing – my schedule is awesome.

Done by 2pm Mon-Wed-Fri. No classes before 11am. My Tues and Thurs are alittle out of wack, but who cares.

It looks like I’ll be enjoying my one politics class the most, again – race issues in the US. The professor seems good so far, he was recommended. My writing classes look a tad weak. German will be arduous again. “Environmental Ethics” could go either way. But hopefully I’ll pull some better grades and boost the ol’ GPA this semester.

Books only came to about $350 this time around. Quite a bit less than last semester, or the one before that.

I’ve been getting tired really early lately. Been going to sleep at ten, eleven. It’s odd.

Dining hall food is bad, but comfortable.

It’s snowy, slushy outside.

I don’t like the way the blog is turning, always more personal, always less political. But if I don’t have the chance to post a whole lot of politics, then what’s the alternative? There’s nothing worse than visiting a defunct blog. I’ll get around to it sometime. Classes look like they’ll inspire me somewhat.
