I don't think anyone actually reads this, but I don't really care.

School has started! I'm finished with my first (half) week of classes for Fall Semester 2009. My schedule is as follows:

MWF:
-9:30-10:20 Microeconomics
-11:30-12:20 Microbiology
-12:30-1:20 Organic Chemistry
-1:30-4:20 (M only) Biology Lab
-2:30-5:20 (W only) Organic Chemistry Lab

TR:
-9:30-10:45 Honors Modern Literature
-11:00-12:15 Communications

Woot. After only 1 or 2 classes, I can tell I'm going to like Microeconomics, Organic Chemistry, and Honors...maybe even Communications. I doubt I'll enjoy Biology, but I'm going to try harder than I did last semester to pay attention to it. Last semester I had Macrobiology. Biology classes are Creighton's largest, with about 250 students in each of the 2 sections of each class. It's wicked hard to pay attention in a class that big. But I have decided this semester I am going to be a better student than last year and it's my goal to come out with a 4.0 QPA for the semester.

Let's see if I can do it. :)

New Start

Hokay, so I'm back. Back to Tall, Red, and Freckled, back to Creighton, back to Swanson Hall. Back to classes on Wednesday... :S haha but I'm actually looking forward to classes this year. They're going to be different: Microeconomics, Macrobiology, Organic Chemistry, Communications, and...wait for it...wait for it...English Literature! Woot woot! That's my Honors course this semester. Well, technically it's called "The Modern World," but that's too generalized. There are two sections of it, and I chose the literature-based section instead of the math and science-base one. Probably not a wise move from the pre-pharmacy academic standpoint, but a VERY wise move from a personal standpoint. I love Lit. My Lit classes have been my favorite here at Creighton, just as they were in high school (in large part due to the fantastic teacher I had: Dr. Dan Cox!).

So. That's what's up with my school life. As for my personal life, I am very much enjoying the week that I'm here without classes. I went clubbing for the first time on Friday at a 19-and-over back to school bash at Club Rojo in South Omaha...that was quite an experience. A little awkward, and a little strange, but rather fun! I'm going back in two weeks. :) I've been hanging out with new(ish) friends and meeting new people (always a good thing), and have gotten the chance to visit with some old(ish) friends too! So glad I got to move in early. And I haven't had to deal with the event I was dreading before coming back...yet. I'm sure I will, but I'm still hoping I never see her...

But I'm making some really great friendships now, so I'll survive. I'll be alright. It's going to be a great year.

Oh, and btw...Ryan's been sweeter than ever lately...almost back to the way it was last summer. Almost. Just so you know.
