| ||THE 3 AM WAKING UP THING IS GETTING OLD...|| |

So, yeah, I've been busy. o_0 I went and paid for my classes on Sat, and found out that Monday was the first day of classes. So, Monday morning, I was up at an ungodly time in the morning- after still not having slept well the night before. I went to the school, registered for classes, got my new ID set up, got my fin aid done (mostly), ate breakfast, had a bottle of soda explode on me, had V bring me home to change, and still managed to get back to school in time for my first class at 11.
I like tables, so I'll make you a table of my classes. ^_^

And, on Fridays at noon I have the Theater club- which I am sure has a name but hell if I know what it is- until 2, which I intend to actually go to this semester. Oh, and I let V convince me to join the Student Activities Counsel >_< which meets Mondays right after my class until... when ever the hell it ends apparently. The good news about getting sucked in the SAC with V? They like my suggestions. Like the idea of having a WizRock concert on campus the same weekend they're doing HP5 for thier Friday night movie. The bad news? They now espect me to figure out how to get that done. And V was the one who brought it up for god's sake! But she went and volenteered me to be the chair for that event if they can afford to do it... *grumble* Well, at least it'll be something fun to plan! Right? Right. Wrock rules. ^_^
I actually want to audition for one of the shows this semester. o_0 It's called- hehe I love this- it's called "Fat Pig". Here is the blurb about it:
Could your loved one's weight actually impact your relationships? Your career? Your own self-esteem? These are but a few of the questions raised in Neil LaBute's fascinating and provocative comic-drama Fat Pig. Tom, a handsome young career guy, meets and starts dating Helen, a bright sexy librarian who happens to be plus-sized- and then some. As Tom reluctantly begins to fall for Helen, his co-workers tease him mercilessly about his new relationship, forcing him to come to terms with his own preconceptions about the importance of beauty and conventional good looks. Can you guess what part I want to audition for? ^_^
Seriously though, it sounds really interesting- a different view of an issue I know quite well, and I'm very interested to see it if nothing else.
Ok, so back to the classes. I think I'm going to like my Intro to Theater class a lot better this semester. Not nearly as much group work- still not a single play to read on the syllabus, but what are you gonna do? And the teacher seems to be... not so much of an idiot. Intro to Bus. Admin. looks like a fun class, but it actually does look like a lot of work. o_0 Say wow. We even have to do a "Career Interview" with someone from either our chosen profession, or just someone who really loves their job. And we get to do a marketing project. ^_^ I'm excited about that one.
My Stagecraft class.... I already know that I like the teacher as a person, I'm just not sure that I'm going to like him as a teacher. But, as my father pointed out, I'm not REALLY gonna like any of the theater teachers here because I've only got Collins- who I despised- and Mark- who's a push over but adorable- to compare them to. I'm trying to keep an open mind, though I have a inkling that a major part of the reason I haven't liked theater classes here yet isn't really the class material or the teachers, but the fact that I know I' not going to walk into a class of 15 girls and already know and like all of them. o_0 I miss my girls... *sigh*
ANYWAYS. Accounting I am not going to like. But I have to take it, so. The material is stuff I already know, and the teacher tries to be real nice but just comes off as patronizing. I can't tell you how many times in the first class I wanted to be like "I am not an idiot, so stop talking to me like I am!" But, eh, it's the only class that I'm pretty sure I'm not going to like this semester, so I think I'm doing ok.
I wanted to get into World Religions, but my father waited until last Sat to get me the money to pay when classes started this week, so it was full by the time I registered.
Um... I paid the deposit on the cabin at Wrockstock! I've got a ticket for the weekend reserved already, and I'm letting one girl from Wash State crash at my house the day before and after! So it's official that I will be going! I told my sister that I couldn't take her because she's under 16 and therefore needs a parent to go- which is true- and now she's trying to convince her mother to come along.
Cause that's just what I want. The bitch who accused my brother of molesting my little sister and pretty much ruined any chance of a real relationship he'll ever have with her to crash my HP-love filled weekend. I'm going along with it, because I don't want there to be issues, and I already know that I won't be staying in the same room as them cause I'm in a cabin full of the most awesome chikas! I told my father about it, and he a) doesn't thin that Wendy will actually fork over the cash to go, and b) said that even if she were, he would have a conversation with her, reminding her why he has yet to allow her to be around me with no one else there. I am very nice and polite to Wendy when Jacki is around, but I am the only person in my family that has ever spoken my mind to her. I do not like her. I do not respect her. I think that the only thing that she has ever contributed to this world is Jacki- and I think that other than the actual labor, my father did most of the work there. I think she is scum and it actually makes me feel dirty to have to be in the same room with her. And I have told her as much. Loudly.
I don't want to know what I might say/do to her if you get a few butterbeers in me- and yes, we will have real, honest to god butterbeer! Butter Schnapps ad cream soda! Sounds yummy! ^_^
Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if the tickets sell out before she gets around to it. They are going fast! ^_^ Makes me very happy. This is going to be an awesome show! And! I don't even have to miss class for it! Though I most likely won't make it to Theater club that Fridays. o_0
I think I like this 'sign up at the last minute' thing. I've already got all my books and stuff, all I need is a couple new notebooks and a business calculator and I'm set. There was no week-before-classes-start-mad-dash this way. It was actually less stressful! I won't be doing it again because it's too much of a risk that I won't get into the classes I need, but it worked for this semester.
Ok, other than saying that I have been knitting like a fool (just started on a HP scarf the other day, which is going to take forever to get done because of the friggen knitting-in-the-round and the switching-of-colors, and I've already got like ten inches done on it! I'm a movie!Ravenclaw apparently. ^_^ But really only because it was the cheapest yarn in the store that would work.) I've got nothing left to talk about! So I'm gonna go get ready for school...
Later!
