First Day Back!
Aug. 18th, 2025 03:42 pmToday's my first day back in class! I'm really glad to see all of my old friends again. Like I mentioned in my last post, it's been pretty awkward since most of my hall this year, including my roommates, are first-years and also besties already, and I feel out of place. So I've loved getting to see everyone. :D I had lunch with one group of friends yesterday and then we hung out for a while, and I had a couple more over last night, and we played Exploding Kittens and Cards Against Humanity with my suitemates! (AKA the girls in the other bedroom--also including in the general category of "my roomates") We did end up going to bed pretty late, but it was really fun.
This morning I had two classes out of five--the other three are Tuesday-Thursday. This morning I started off with Linguistics for the English Language Classroom, which helps both English literature/language teachers and English as a second language teachers learn how to teach English language skills! I know a good few people in that class, and the professor is really cool. (Although there is this one creepy guy that I CAN'T SEEM TO ESCAPE that's in there as well.) It's going to go well, I think, despite the fact that I spilled tea all over my desk and had to run to the bathroom to get towels to clean it up before class even started. And coincidentally, one of my classmates from that class is also in my next class, Pre-Revolutionary France! In which there are only three students, including myself. We have a new professor, as the old one retired, and she's really nice so far. We played GimKit, an old favourite review game from high school, and got to know each other!
I had lunch with an old friend/acquaintance from last year. I thought I was going to have lunch with Forest, one of my closest friends from last year, but then he reminded me he has straight classes for four hours Monday-Wednesday-Friday, which he had told me and I had forgotten. But tonight I'm meeting up with my K-pop club members for dinner and a mini-exec meeting, which I'm so excited about!! I really love that club and all its members, so I'm really excited. ^-^ And I can't wait to give them their souvenirs from Korea!
Right now I'm doing my work-study job, which is working my dorm's hall desk. It's really cool! Although it's actually really hot at the moment, and the main building's AC is screwed up. It's a pretty boring job, but it helps me pay for college, so it's worth it.
That's about it from me for now. Expect more updates throughout the week! Toodles :D
