So the semester has started, you know what I said about being bored out of my mind? I’m not regretting those words. This is going to be a hard semester, but a fun one if I don’t let myself get overwhelmed by it all. To top it off, my boss at work is working at another store for a month and she called me panicking because their inventory is coming up and absolutely nothing has been done to prepare for it so I’m heading up there in a bit to help her. I don’t want to but I desperately need the money right now so I can’t say no. I don’t want to work as much because there’s going to be a lot of stuff going on this semester, but if I want to be out of the house by June, I’m going to need to work as much as possible and not have a social life.

So how are my classes? Most of them are fine. Most of them… My class on weather and climate is fine. He shows us power point presentations and his notes are available online so that’s fine, but attendance does count as 15% of the grade (which I think is stupid) and he makes us sign in so he can study our signature to make sure people don’t sign their friends in (which I also think is dumb). I take a lot of notes as well because I will remember it better, but I’m genuinely interested in this stuff so I really think I’m going to like the class.

My Theatre History class is going to incorporate some computer science stuff into which I think is weird. We’re going to be using a Wiki which I have no idea what that is but I assume it’s like a class discussion board. However, our first homework assignment (due tomorrow) is to read the first two chapters of a book that’s on backorder, and the professor doesn’t quite understand that…
