Aug. 4th, 2005 05:44 pmI finally got my information packet from my college! I found out my room, roommate, and classes. My roommate's name is casey Meisenbacher, and I haven't talked to her yet. I like the name casey though, lol ^_^ I got a nice room, all things considered. In the biggest dorm building. It's the only building with carpeted floors, yay. All in all I'm pleased.
Now about the courses... I already knew I had chemistry and calc 3. I just found out that my other two courses are Mathematics and Art, and Genetic Testing. Wow. That's a pretty scientific and mathematic courseload, eh? I'm glad I'm getting some bio in there, I miss bio. The only bad thing is that I have classes either at 8:45 or 9 AM every morning, Monday-Friday. Monday I have three classes (GT is at 7:30-10:30 PM! Isn't that weird? It's only once a week too) but Tuesday I only have one. So I guess that balances out. Thursdays I have a chem lab for four hours in the afternoon, wow. I'm actually really excited about that, I like labs! *geektastic* Also, Genetic Testing just sounds so awesome. DNA fingerprinting! It's just about as close to forensics as I could get. Dude, I could be a csi, hehe.
Soooo. That's that.
Also, it looks like I'm going to be keeping my laptop after all. That's kind of a yay. It would have been nice to have a shiny new iBook, with twice the hard drive space, but it alleviates a LOT of problems. I get to keep Photoshop - YAY! So... that's that, I suppose. We're gonna buy my brother a much cheaper one.

Date: 2005-08-05 11:11 am (UTC)As for socializing, 1) I had nearly flunked out the previous semester due to socializing and not realizing how much more work was required than I was used to; 2) most of my friends were in the same classes with me, so I saw them during class, could eat lunch with them, and we did study groups right after lunch. I'm not sure if anyone else shifted their sleep schedule, but there were lots of naps taken. ;)
