First day of classes!

3 classes today, here's how they went.

9-9:50 a.m. philosophy:
I was extremely early because I wasn't sure how long it would take me to walk to the building so I had to stand outside the class for about half an hour waiting, but it ended up not being too bad. Then when the professor got there, he started telling jokes and was really funny and we didn't really talk about too much philosophy since it's only the first day, but he did say we would jump right into it tomorrow.

10-10:50 a.m. history:
This class is in a classroom with theatre-esque seats, making it difficult to take notes and stuff. But the teacher seemed nice enough and funny. The only thing that makes me nervous about this class is that he said we would be doing a lot of debates, which I've never been very good at, but I suppose I have to get confident with it eventually... I'm excited for this class though, because it's american history up to the year 1865, which is my favorite time period of our history to learn about so this will be a good class.

After those classes, I didn't have another one until 3 in the afternoon so I came back to my dorm and dropped off some stuff and rode my bike over to my friend's dorm to meet up with her for lunch. Then we went to english class together since we are in the same class. The teacher in this class is REALLY young and I can't wait to see what sort of fresh ideas he has for the class.

Tomorrow my schedule is a little different. 9-9:50, philosophy. 10-10:50, history, then 12-12:50, university 101, which is a class required for all freshman. We'll see how it goes. Tomorrow I'll be done with all my classes by 1! So glad!
