Monday:

History presentation.
Proceeded to spent 5.5 hours in the library working on another presentation. Most likely scared some of the library cafe patrons with my twitchy-ness and being a zombie.

Tuesday:

20 minute presentation in a class of 100 something students at 8 AM. For someone who lacks much public speaking skills, it’s pretty damn terrifying. And [...]


Interesting thing that came to my attention when I visited my old high school, which was that the school’s athletic field has been shut down since 2007 (meaning after I graduated, because we still used it until then). The reasons being that the field was uneven and buckling, which would eventually cause injury to students [...]


I have come to a conclusion that all (or at least, the vast majority) of Spanish teachers are nuts. I swear, all of the ones I had since seventh grade to my first semester of my sophomore year of college have all proved to be a bit… out there. I sometimes wonder what goes on [...]


Gym class was never really a class I was fond of. I think of it more as a torture chamber for nerds and the uncoordinated. It was a way for the “golden” athletes to act more like douches and of course the gym teachers just love them. Not so much for the nerds. And if you saw [...]


This will be a quick one, but I’m done with statistics for the semester (and hopefully never have to take another damn stats course as long as I live). Stats was my most brutal class thus far in my college career and it has done a few things to me. There is only so much [...]


I have a theory that my school is trying to kill me. What is this crazy theory about this time?
Because my school didn’t update the history minor core requirements. One of the requirements is to take an intro class in European, American, and class in either African, Asian, or Latin American history. However, on the [...]


The infamous crappy weather in the town where my school is located has returned. I believe my friend who wears a certain hat only for winter jinxed it by putting said hat on a couple days ago. In addition to being miserably cold, it’s also windy. And raining.
Cold + wind + rain = pain.
Also, I [...]


I hate stats. I hate it with a fiery passion.
It’s a particular stats class just for psychology students. Why didn’t anyone inform me of this gawd awful course? This wasn’t really discussed in any of the orientations until a few weeks into intro to psychology. Granted, I have a professor who is awesome and knows [...]


The freshmen girls in my hall… they kinda scare me. Even though I was a freshmen last year, there were some things that these girls do that just baffle me.
Such as their ability to go the bathroom with bare feet. We share a bathroom in the hall. There are a lot of girls that use [...]


This is not any of the boxes, crates, or suitcase I need to pack with stuff for moving back on campus. Nope. As I start my sophomore year this semester I have various things I am looking forward to and not looking forward to. Let’s start things off on a light note, because usually crappy [...]
