School Roundup

Jan 14, 2008 20:43

I'm seeing ghosts on campus. Every time I turn around I see someone and have to stop myself from yelling at them, because I know the person I think I'm seeing has long since graduated or left the university. It's a strange sensation, but I think it mostly stems from the fact that I feel out of place and highly uncomfortable at NKU, and probably will continue to do so until my time there ends. I feel like an outsider, like I don't belong. Like I threw away the chance to be there and now I am slouching back to it like a lover jilted. It's strange. I know I should be celebrating the chance to learn, but instead I'm seeing shadows of years past. Maybe Charles Dickens should write a book about it.

Classes started off nominally today. I'm actually looking forward to my classes this semester instead of the eye rolling of the semester past. Maybe I'll actually learn a thing or two in the coming months, but at the bare minimum I should come out of it with some good reads. My break from 3-6 today went over quite well as I read a book and a half and listened to a few cds. I tried calling up some friends, but by the time they got out of class and responded to my calls I was more or less dead to the world. Sorry again Rob.

So tomorrow brings the other two classes, which should be fun as well. Then the book buying, and then starting on the homework that is due Wednesday. Hooray!
