I'm sitting here with my cup of peppermint tea reflecting on the past 22 days.
I don't even think interesting begins to describe it.
It's been crazy. Crazy crazy.
Made some poor decisions, made some great decisions. School started, work picked up. I rarely sleep. I need to start sleeping.
Classes? Crazy. Principles of Political Science will be my demise. I severely dislike my professor soley based on the way he presents himself... and the fact that his OCD makes it difficult to pay attention to what he's saying. Plus, he has viewpoints that are a bit off, and has nothing to back them up with. And you would think that as a teacher of political science he would be able to defend his view points.
Intro to Philosophy will be easy. I didn't realize it, but it's a Philosophy through Film book... so, essentially... we watch movies. A lot. We just spent a week watching Total Recall. It was interesting. Not a fan of Arnold, but it's all good.
Abnormal Psychology will be difficult, not because the material is hard, but because it's a lot of reading and a lot of thinking. I've only had one class, but it was pretty awesome and I'm excited. Experimental Psychology is going to be tough. Lots of group work and lots of math-meets-theory. Theories of Personality is proving to be an enjoyable class. I like it a lot.
I like that with all my psychology classes, I am already pretty familiar with the material... as I have been studying it for the past 5 years... It's good to walk into a class and be able to have a discussion about something you already are familiar with. It makes me feel like education isn't a waste.
Work? Work's a joke. I am quite possibly one of 3 competant people at the hostess stand... and I've only been there a month. The other two competant people? Are a woman in her 30's and a woman in her 50's. It's really trying on my patience because I feel like sometimes... I'm the only one who actually knows what we're supposed to be doing. Granted, some of the girls are REALLY good at smiling and being in the way. But... y'know.
I'm so pissed that last night while we were getting coats someone TOOK over $100 of our tips from the coat check. So what did I leave with? Like $30. Sucks ass. Maybe I'll see if I can stay late tonight. Who knows. Last night was just all around bad. Got harassed by an Egyptian guy named Justin. Weird. I know he was just being drunk and silly... but still.
Social life? It's been decent. Seeing lots and lots of Carolyn, had a lunch date with Katie. Lara and Cheryl came out with me to a party at Jaimie's house, Got Thai with Lara, Went to NYC with Lara, Cheryl, Mel, and Carolyn, have seen Ed a few times.
There's 800 ideas in my head and I want to write about them all, but I only have a little while before I have to go get ready for work.. plus, most of them should be private. Maybe I'll have some time tomorrow.
Until next time..
