First week status report

Sep 08, 2008 23:23

I have officially survived my first week at Purchase =P. Here's a rundown of classes/other important things.

Monday/Thursday
Traditional China - seems like it will be pretty cool. Its an upper-level history class, and it involves getting used to another language a little, but its work and topics I'm interested in.
Journalism I - Snooze class. Seriously. So far, appears to be like the same class I took at Coby. *yawn* Oh well, at least it should be an easy grade.
Human Sexuality - Another looking like it'll be easy class. You know a class is gonna be amusing when the first thing you do in class is get into groups and have a competition over what group can come up with the most synonyms for penis and vagina. I kid you not XD. Doesn't hurt that there are two cute guys in the class sitting near me ^^; (one guy seriously looks like a younger version of the guy who plays[-ed, omg I am still sad that RENT closed] Roger in RENT on Broadway - aka guy in my Facebook profile pic).

Tuesday/Friday
Development of the US I - Introductory US history. Another snooze class. The only one I have in a lecture hall, but not all that huge. Professor is kind of a dinosaur, go fig for a history class.

Wednesday
Exoticism in Modern Art - I can tell this will be my hardest class, but at least it doesn't seem it'll be boring. And one of my roomies, Nicole, is in the class too - so I'll have someone to study with. Our first readings are mad WTF, and we're supposed to write a response to one of them and neither make much sense to me (hopefully they make a little more sense to Nicole). The topics seem interesting, so could be worse.

I'm also getting involved in The Independent, the weekly newspaper. I believe meetings are Mondays at 10 for writing, and Tuesday/Wednesday for layout and stuff. I forget things easily ^^. Def, def, def joining the Anime Club - Wednesday night meetings so far, and there will be another meeting time during the week added soon. I may have already found a travel buddy to got to actually NYAF with, yay! Considering joining the gaming club as well. And possibly the Art Club too, because that would help me get pieces to boost my portfolio and hopefully get me into the minor.

And of course, there has already been a bit of guy-related drama already, but that's kind of a given for me LOL. But at least the eye candy in my Monday class makes that not such a big deal anymore ^_~. Oh, and my roommate Arielle is a nutjob. Not the good kind of nutjob.

Because a Dashboard Confessional concert is on now on the Madison Square Garden channel, it reminds me. Wednesday is Mikey Day, and unrelated to Mikey Day because Mikey Day is a good day - I will likely end up crying at some point that day =P
