Classes are yucy and I'm feeling run down. I'm still lost all the time and I have no time to get anywhere between my classes and UGH I don't know. Too much pressure, too much thinking about what the hell I'm going to major in. I'm hating my bio class. There are too many people. If you don't get there like 20 minutes early all the seats in the front are taken. So I have t sit in the back where the teachers never see you and you can't hear anything. Much the same for politics, except of course that Professor Ferraro is completely amazing. 50% of our grade is a website that we have to make about whatever political topic (this instead of a final paper or whatever) and the other 50% is a weekly quiz on world events. So basically, homework is keep up with what's going on in the world. I'm ever so excited. The nly downside is that it's hard to hear when people speak - so debates might be tricky.
I made a tota dork of myself in my bio lab today. Haha it was amazing.It was our first lab so it was pretty low-key - just learning how to use the microscopes and looking at unicellular kinda things. Samples of pond water, green algae, cyanobacteria, yeast (they were supposd to bud, but they just sat there) and also a dead flea and a fruit fly wing (those two were decidely less cool. eww we had to peel off the fly wing ourselves...) But yeah. Being me, of course, every time I saw anything moving I was like WOAH! And apparetly people thought I knew what I was doing, because a few people at my table asked for help and then one girl asked me if I was considering being a bio major. I dunno it made me feel good, like maybe I CAN do this. But whatever, mondays still suck.
I'm going vegan this week because I feel fat.
I need october break like you wouldn't believe. I'm going to Virginia even though it would probably be better to go home, because Erik and I are kind of dying without each other.
