Day 2 of Classes

Must... be... H-Core!!!

Phew, this self-actualization thing is exhausting! Last night I planned on spending two hours studying Genetics, but it was so fun, I did three! I know, I know, I'm a total nerd. But I'm a nerd with flashcards! I suppose that makes it worse, actually... oh well, self-actualization, here I come!

And I got up at 6:30 this morning so that I could go visit a 7:40AM Human Event class and spread the word of Camp Sparky. Remind me to never do that again.

So never fear, no matter how much success I may have at self-actualization, I will always be a spazz- I just did a very interesting trick attempting to enter the library via the turnstiles. *ahem* Grace and poise, Eleanor, grace and poise.

So, out of the 11 other people in my jewelry class, I know, like, four. That's a lot for me. Cool! I'm sharing a locker with Tim, another ceramics student. I sawed copper for the first time yesterday, and I only broke, like, 10 saw blades! (Which, believe it or not, is actually less than some people in the class.) I'm excited about our first project in jewelry, though as yet I haven't the faintest notion what I'm going to do. I think that whatever it is, I want to mount it on a barrette... so I guess I do have some idea. Exciting!

My calc teacher seems like a real weirdo. He's not nearly as cute in that "aw, look at da widdle math teacher" kind of way as my precalc teacher, though that class was, coincidentally, taught in the same classroom. That was two years ago. Wow. Time flies.

I suppose I should stop denying the existence of time.

Also, I already have really scary-lookin' genetics homework. I have lecture four times a week, which means, by rule of thumb, eight hours of studying a week... oi. I may have to drop calc. It seems fine right now, but it's only the second day, and Camp Sparky hasn't gotten rolling yet.

I don't know why that reminds me, but I need to do laundry tonight, I suppose interspersed with genetics reading. I'm going to know so much by the end of the semester!

Oh, and here's a picture of the proto-boyfriend, for anyone who's curious:

It's a kind of old photo- I'll put one of my own pictures of him up if I can ever find the cable that connects my camera to my computer... cuz that would help a lot.
