so now that ive settled in more, i guess its time for a more comprehensive entry. Since now i actually have things to talk about.
i ended up having to drop greek 3 weeks into it. i really just wasnt cut out for it. as a result of that, and of my advisor not believing me when i say that after gov school i really can pick up a pretty good courseload, i only have 3 classes. 3. how insane is that? im using the extra time (i have wayyyyyyyyyyy too much of it!) to try and do beyond excellent in the classes i am taking, and start forming the basis for some tutorials.
tutorials are basically classes that you design with a professor on anything you want (as long as its academically acceptable), and then its just like a regular class except theres usually only 2 to 3 person in a class. I just need to learn enough about the areas i want to do tutorials in to be able to know what exactly im interested in, what directions i want to go.
im really lucky that i got the particular advisor that i did. evidentally its next to impossible to get tutorials with her because shes in high demand, but since im her advisee i kind of have first dibs. shes the go to person not only for lit, but also for anything involving queer and feminist things.
sweet.
I really like my roomate/room situation. bianca is really great/easy to live with. we have alot in common, but are absolutely opposite. shes.... hard to explain.
i have a lady friend. thats actually a very very new development, as in somethingdefinitivefinallyjusthappenedlastnight development. i really like her though. Its just kind of strange for me, because im used to being the innocent one, im not used to having to make the first move, etc. im the first girl shes ever kissed, and she said she wasnt really sure at all that she liked women before she met me. so thats really different from anyone ive ever been involved with before.
anyways, more on that later.
(her name is jess)
...
i really like where my life is right now. even though i am really worried about some people back home.
also,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAHCATOE!
