Semester Preview

Today was the first day of spring semester.  The whole day was very good, despite my initial nervousness.  I woke up a few times last night and had trouble getting back to sleep.  I felt better as the morning went on, though.  I got my schedule printed out and got to wear my favorite yellow shirt (the one I coordinate with my pointy yellow shades, because I'm cool like that).

My first class of the day was developmental psychology.  It's not exactly "second-level" as I had described it, but it is my second psychology class and it's more in-depth.  I really dig the professor and my classmates seem really friendly.  The same also applied to my second class, accounting.  I can tell the professor really loves accounting.  The sort of love that says, "If loving accounting is wrong, I don't want to be right."  All in all, both classes should prove to be challenging, fun, and fruitful.

I had a few minutes between classes to eat my lunch.  It was tasty.  After my classes were over, I still had to wait for Josh to get out of his English class.  I spent the following hour and twenty minutes taking pictures of myself with my iPod and manipulating them with various photo-editing apps, because that's what all good students do their first day.  Josh had a great day, too, and with that we headed to a nice little Chinese restaurant in Oak Ridge.  Countless pieces of shrimp and several Altoids later, we're just relaxing at home.  Neither of us have school on Fridays, and we're going to be off Monday for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.  Today was just a little "preview" of the rest of the semester.

Despite the tempting idea of playing The Sims 3 until my eyes melt out of their sockets, I should probably get to bed.  I'm usually a night person, but going to bed early and getting up early is the chillest feeling ever.  I like to make breakfast for Josh first thing, then follow it up with doing laundry or the dishes.  Everyone should try to do even a minor accomplishment first thing in the morning.  I don't know about you, but it always puts me in a relatively good mood.
