Well, it's been over a week since I've posted. I decided to get off the whole "every Monday" thing... yeah. I'll try to post more, it's just that I've been pretty busy.
Last weekend was the football game versus Arizona State. Oregon State got beat pretty bad, but it was still fun. This weekend's game against Washington State should be a big one, and I expect it to be pretty close like Boise State. Should be fun. And it's almost here!
Classes so far have been good. I'm really happy I took Astronomy, not only does it appear to be very easy (no homework), but it's something that actually interests me. So when the professor announces we're going to spend a whole lecture on each planet, lots of people moan, but I'm like "yay!". Anywho, I'm also in MTH241, or "Calculus for Business." So far it's just review and has been easy. I expect it to get harder, but nothing that will blow my brains. I know a few people in there so we can study together and whatnot.
I also have "Modern American Families" class. It's very easy, and pretty interesting. You basically have to show up and have a tenth of your brain working. The professor is very blunt and to the point, so it's excellent. Upsets the more sheltered in the class, which is fun to watch. Anywho, that class also has minimal homework. I'm also in a "college adjustment" class worth 1 credit with that same teacher. Basically you show up and get an A, so yay.
There is still one class I have not been to. WR214, or better understood as "Writing for Business." It only meets once a week, but for 2 hours and 50 minutes. It starts at 7pm and goes to 9:50pm. So that will be a marathon. But with the quarter system, that means I only have to go to it 10 times and then I'm done. Probably will be my hardest class in terms of homework/actually having to apply myself, but it will be fine. I tested out of all freshman required writing/literature classes by taking the AP English test this last spring. So basically I'm getting my sophomore writing stuff out of the way and will have only one more writing class after this one.
College has been good and I've been enjoying it. The dorm life is good as well, it's not that bad once you get settled in and adjusted to not living in 2200 square feet. We also discovered the West Dining Center, which is a really nice place to eat, albeit a bit of a hike (10 minutes).
Finally Thomas!!
ReplyDeleteI thought you had forgotten about us up here in old P-Town.
Just say the score---and all I can say is Thank God!
Hope to here more from you.
Lots of love and good luck with all your classes. Lena
Sorry about the grammer. I guess it is time for bed!
