First Day Back...

...and it started off kind of rocky.

I over slept and woke up at 7:58, two minutes before my first class started. I jumped out of bed, took a quick shower (kicking myself for not washing my hair after swimming last night), skipped breakfast, forgot my pre-packed lunch, sprinted across campus and to the third floor of Peterson, where I landed in my seat at 8:12 - 14 minutes after I woke up. Aye. Thankfully, I am a very low-maintenance person and am not ashamed to wear the same outfit three days in a row. Yes, I said three. My two-day-old-smells-like-chlorine-from-the-pool-last-night-Michigan t-shirt was on top of the pile in my drawer this morning, so it's what I happened to grab in my early morning frenzy to get dressed. Don't worry, it's going in the wash pile tonight!

Class turned out to be okay, since a bunch of my friends were also late because they thought the class started at 8:30. And my friend Jen also over slept, except that she slept through the entire class, so I don't feel as incredibly terrible now. All of my classes seem really good. This quarter I'm taking Classroom Management, Math Methods I, Soc/Science Methods, and Reading/Language Arts Methods II, along with some dumb writing class I need to finish my major. After this quarter, I will have completed my Language Arts major - yippee!! Oh, and I also have a field placement all day Thursdays, which I'll find out about next week.

I also happened to score a free TV today, which has made my day. One of my profs, Dr. McKinney, needs to get rid of it, so I said I'd take it. I'm turning out to be quite good at inheriting stuff - a new vacuum, a really nice desk chair, a few rugs, a microwave, and now a TV! And I got my super-awesome comfy couch for only 40 bucks last year. Now all I need is some bedroom furniture for next year, and I'd be pretty much set.
