First day of the quarter..

Apr 01, 2003 07:08

   Monday was the first day of the quarter, and already my life is hellish busy. Good times. Got like two hours of sleep Sunday night between working on numerous things. Proceeded to fall asleep in my english class.

I'm waitlisted for half my classes, but right now I am signed up for: RUS3 (Russian), ENL5F (Introduction to writing fiction), HIS131C (History 1650-1800, "Ancient Regime"), and COM6 (Myths and Legends). I'm waitlisted number two in ENL5F, and two people currently enrolled didn't show up on monday.. so hopefully that'll work out. The teacher is an uber-hippie. Her name is "Eve Imagine," needless to say thats neither her nor her husbands original last name. She repeatedly referred to herself as an "artist," which I thought was a bit.. pretentious. I mean who asserts that they ARE an artist, REPEATEDLY. So yea.. I found myself trying to do a psychological breakdown of her, in what she said about her life it became quite apparent that it was of overriding importance to her that everyone recognize her as an artist and the perfection of bohemian ideals.. so I was trying to figure out what specific inadequacy or type of incident could lead one to have such monomania.
   Which isn't to say I don't like her. I think it looks like the class should be interesting.

I'm waitlisted number seven in HIS131C. So I don't know if thats gonna work out. I have that class for the first time today (and COM6 as well). So we'll see how those work out.

And Russian class of course is like being in high school: its the same people every quarter, just a new room.

Between my classes yesterday I showed my mom around campus a bit. I wanted her to try a COHO burrito but she wasn't hungry enough, maybe today she will. I then slept for about three hours in the afternoon, being dead tired; but had to get up at seven (pm) to go to the "MUNSEC" meeting (Em Eu En Secretariat meeting). We had to juggle the car, as mother is still using it primarily, and she's staying with the aunt and uncle. So she drove over to my place, we drove back to Ben & Bev's, dropped her off, I drove to the meeting... repeated in reverse order thereafter.

Finally checked my grades from last quarter. Having had no books save one reader, not taken ANY notes in class, and not studied for any tests save the finals, I got straight Bs. Yes I'm awesome!

The Dominion of Blehtahepdakorum is now classified as a "Corporate Police State." Go figure. My environmental standards are still "stunning" though so.. whatever.

mother, classes, blehtahepdakorum, ben & bev
