collegian

\Col*le"gi*an\, n. A member of a college, particularly of a literary institution so called; a student in a college; the DeathBug

Yes, I am now officially a student of the Hillsborough Community College. Good times.

Granted, I have to go through Rush Hour Trafik to get there, and there's this jerk in a black pickup who keeps illegally taking the right of way, but it's worth it, I suppose.

On Mondays and Wednesdays, I must take Introduction to Computers, which is so painfully boring that I'm getting tired just talking about it. The first homework assingment? In a paragraph, tell us if you think video games cause violence. Mah brain hurts.

The second class I take on M&W is College Algebra. As many of you might remember, I hate math like...something bad. So, while I'm not thrilled with it, at least I'm fairly good at algebra, as math goes.

The Honors students have a cool lounge with a really slow computer and a fridge. Yay, right? I can bring a luch, drop it in the fridge in the morning, then come back after class and eat lunch while doing my homework. Good times.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have Psychology honors and Hummanities Honors 2.

Psychology is cool; we'll apparently get to argue, do experiments and read about crazy people. Also, Ernesto's in my class. it's a small world.

To make the world even smaller, Julia is in my hummanities class. <3 Hummanities is apparently a study of art, which I am more than likely too uncultured to understand.

After class, I like to go to the gym. Yay fitness.

I would have posted last night, but I got called into work, to man the registers. I'm reminded of how much I love working the registers. I want to be transferred to the registers; maybe James will be in tonight? Maybe I can ask him.

Anyway, I've got to clean up my room and organize my school stuff. And, in other news, I'm thinking of becoming an eBay user.

If you haven't been to Azale at Keenspace.com yet, what be wrong with you?

Thought of the moment: Waaay too many people smoke on campus. So gross.

Quote of the moment: "Tompkins, how you be so short?"

Song of the moment:
