After an 11 week hiatus, i'm back to updating. after all, who wouldn't want to know about my oh so routine school life?? here's my schedule for this fall
Monday: 12-1250 Psch 242 lect, 1-150 Bio 484 lec, 2-250 Chem 344 lec; 4-7: Chem 343 (lab)
Tuesday: 12:30-1:45: Psch 100 lect
Wed : 11-1150: Psch 242 disc, then same as monday
thurs : same as tuesday
friday : 12:1250: psch 100 disc, 1-150 bio 484 lect, 3-350 chem 343 disc
It's a very sleep friendly schedule cause the earliest class on most days is at noon. and i like the mostly empty space on tuesdays and thrusdays. Yesterday's classes were okay, except for chem 344 (physical chem for biochemists). the professor is a visiting professor from U Chicago and he jumped right in to Quantum Mechanics on the first day. and he has a thick greek accent and goes through all the math stuff very fast which makes it very difficult to understand him. Chem 343 is the physical chem lab, which looks okay, plus i'm friends w/ the TA thanks to my research connections :) Psch 100 will be my blow off class and i'm looking forward to that because i haven't had a blow off class in a while.
i also applied for tutoring job thing. it's officially called a "peer-stufy group leader" where i'm supposed to help incoming freshman develop good critical thinking and study skills. I'm a bad person to learn study habits from, but we'll see how it goes. i think it'll just be a few hours a week, but good enough to get some cash, which i'll need after havning to buy my books and pay my tuition myself. damn parents don't gimme my freedom or any money! i suppose that's not completely fair cause they have been paying until this semester. but still.
hopefully, i can get in to a routine quickly and this semester will pass by smoothly.
