Something Called School Started

First day of class for the Fall 2006 semester. It's rainy, cold, dark, and absolutely perfect. This is exactly the weather I'd love to wake up to almost every morning. I still hope Josh will get a job somwhere on the northwest coast, Seattle or Portland, so it will be like this all the time.

Argument and Debate is going to be time consuming, but beneficial because it will teach me how to argue. I need all the help I can get in that department. Critical thinking and logic is something I need to sharpen up on. Most of the students in that class are Comm majors and I am familiar with them. Comm people I can deal with, they're more on the side I would consider "normal" socially.

As for my English classes, not so normal. Literary Analysis shouldn't be too difficult, but the class is full of English majors whom I consider quite strange and almost annoying. In high school, all my English classes were full of "unique" people, but no one too strange. It seems at the college level they are just plain wacky. Most who I come in contact with severely lack social skills and don't make up for it in any other area. As you get into higher level English classes, they get a little confidence and turn into pretentious socially inept stiffs. A prime example is my Film Analysis class. I can pick out the pretentious ones, the ones who don't know a wide angle from a triangle, and the silent but deadly on paper ones. Lorne and I fall into the latter category. Ugh, English majors are almost as bad as Comp Sci majors. I don't like the people in there yet... but it's only the first day.

July, July, July

It Never Seemed So Strange


For some reason this year has been a year of forgetting to post. Unfortunately, I skipped February and now July. I've had this thing for a little over 3 years and it has evolved immensly. style has changed in my posts but I still refuse to get a new blog. I'll just continue to revamp and recreate it. When I'm 40 I'll laugh at my all the ridiculous things I said about Josh when we first started dating. I laugh now at all that mushy gushy crap. Ew.
