nerdyday + headsup.

so today’s the first day of class for all of us here at WashU, and honestly, i’m a little excited. lol, despite the fact that i’ve had like… eighteen first days of class between pre-K and last semester, i still find it kinda fun. get to know the teachers, get to know your classmates, and hopefully (unlike high school for me where my schedule was chosen for me) all the classes i chose will be interesting. i was a complete lazy-ass and scheduled many of my classes late, so i really don’t have to be out of bed until 10, maybe 10:30 (which means a bedtime of 1 am is now early… though it’s kinda always been), but at the same time, i’ll have REALLY long days… for instance, my last class tonight is 6 – 8:30… super fun shit, eh? but it’s Positive Psychology, so it should be fun. and if everything goes wrong today, i’ll have my laptop with me, so i’ll be able to work on something else for every boring class except maybe MMUF, since idk what the hell we’re even doing in class today, besides maybe talking about the fact that Dustin dropped out of MKHF. but i’m going to be taking notes with Microsoft OneNote for the first time since i was in Abnormal Child Psychology, but this time i think i’m gonna record sound, too, that way i can go over my notes in case i miss anything. i wish my webcam could turn around like Gerald’s does on his Acer, but i’m thankful for my Dell, so i have no complaints. just bratty wishful thinking, i guess.

oh, last night’s MLK Commemoration program was EXCELLENT, the last two before (to me) were very forgettable, but the keynote speaker was AMAZING. i felt bad for the student speaker who came after him, Fernando seemed so mild, ineffective, and politician-like after the impassioned speech of the professor… that speech was meant not to make us comfortable, but to force us to examine ourselves and the TRUE legacy of dr. king. i’m thinking of making a post about that later on, but we’ll see. time for me to take my ass to class.

 

peace.
