So today was my first day back to school.

I slept through my alarm clock and woke up right when I had intended to leave. This forced my daily hygene ritual to be reduced to deodorant, toothbrushing, and getting dressed. I am pretty positive that I looked even more like a scrub than usual today. So an overview of the classes that I gave you an overview of last night.

First, Mathematical Modelling in Human Affairs: It turns out that this class is about mathematical modelling in human affairs. It’s also an introductory level class and should most definitely be an easy A. The professor is old, but a cool kind of old. He’s not quite as funny as he thinks he is, but he made me laugh a couple times. There was also a cute girl who came and sat next to me, so that was cool. I was too shy to introduce myself, but she told God to bless me when I sneezed, so that was cool too. Another very cool thing about this class: neither attendance or homework count, and those are the number two things I hate about school.

Next was Introduction to Computers and their Applications. I think that this class is going to be a lot of fun and really easy, I probably won’t learn too much, but I’ll be able to review all the old tricks from Microsoft Office that I had forgotten about, and also get to brush up on my HTML. The professor is young, probably late 20’s I’d say, he also seems to be really cool. He was another who the class didn’t seem to think was as funny as he thinks he is, but I think he is and that it was just the 9 o’clock in the morning dragging everybody down. But yeah, that should be cool.

Organizational Behavior was cancelled by my professor. On the first day of classes. Why? I do not know… There was just a sign on the door which said class was cancelled today. Awesome. So I went to the commuter lounge at school to hang out, and the cute girl was there! And I sat opposite to her, and we exchanged a bunch of awkward glances over the next hour or so, and then I never went and said hi to her. Sometimes I’m tempted to give up on myself… other times I think I already have.

Fourthly was International Trade. The professor was just as boring as ever and I manage to fall asleep on the first day of class. I need to remember to bring my laptop next class, so I’ll have something to do. This class might be a bit more difficult than I expected, but it should still be alright. The only really disappointing thing about it is that now after six absences he is going to start decreasing my grade. Which sucks, because I was absent at least ten to twelve times last semester with no ramifications. But oh well.

That’s about all I really have today, except for this: Things I’ve Scanned. Things I’ve Scanned is my brand new blog of things I’ve scanned. I just started it today and plan to update it at least every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of each week, and hopefully more. Right now there’s only one thing that I’ve scanned, but more stuff will keep coming up the more I scan stuff. So make sure to check it out.
