HOMEWORK! ARGH!

That's funny, Jace. My sister is known as Pyromanic in our family because she likes candles...and dropped one on her carpet...and set her hair on fire. My title is The Pied Piper. Considering the origin stories for that title it's a creepy thing to call a kid. It has such a nice ring to it; Sinny Regnavi: The Pied Piper.

My first weekend, yays. Sorry I haven't been on much. Technically I have six classes because of the two labs.

Chem: Dr. _____
Bio: Dr. ______
Relst: Dr. ______
Chem Lab I: Dr. ______
Bio Lab: Prof. _____
Chem Lab II: Prof. ______
Histroy: Prof. ______

Yikes, so many PhDs. My plan was to get a PhD myself so this is only good news to me. Dr. Regnavi. Dr. -insert legal surname-. Sounds good with both my surnames.

Oh man, in Chem I have to memorize the periodic table and this list of ions. AND I have to be able to spell everything out correctly. Here's a fun little fact; I spell things how they sound. That means when my mind is in shut down mode, I spell 'of' as 'ove' or 'ov'. Yeah, and I have to spell ions correctly. Oh, there are also some words I avoid in writing if I can manage it. The one that comes to mind is 'pour'. I hate that word so much.

Why?

French. Yes, that's why. French is my mother's first language, I was nearly fluent years and years ago with speaking and understanding it. Probably can't speak so well, but I wonder if I walked in on a French conversation if I could understand? When I first started writing I would use French as some of the dialog. So, I hate the word 'pour'. Pour in French in 'for'if you didn't know. I used to type up papers, hand them in, and get them back with 'pour' circled a few times. I kept putting 'pour' instead of 'for'. So things like 'this is for you' would say 'this is pour you' or 'this est pour tu'. Not good for essays.

Back to classes. Chem lab is alright. We got lectured and did mathematics. Not fun, but it'll pick up. We have a part one that is all lecture about what we're going to be doing, and then a part two were we go off to the labs to do the stuff. I haven't seen the lab yet.

Bio lab could be really cool, except I somehow [again] got stuck with the one table were everyone is a bum. They cheated in out experiment. I was so mad. This might not be their major, but it's mine. They screw this up for me and they'll find frog guts in their binders. I attract these people who are criminal type, or I bring out the criminal in people. That would explain a lot. I slipped in class. I said 'affinity of saturation' when analyzing a picture. Got a lot of 'WTF?'. None of the students knew what I said but the prof. might have. Then again, she looked at me weird too. So I was like "um, I was a film student. It just means everything is really bright. Look, a fish."
--"Like a photography major?" --"No, more like a director...for movies...major...in California." --"WTF!" --"Any other observations? Light source?" --"???" ---"...Yeah...."

If I'm lucky I scared away the table and I'll get new partners. My prediction was wrong [mostly because the people I was working with being stupid and whiny] so hopefully they'll see that as me being an idiot and change tables. Never have I wanted to be veiwed an idiot. The two must be freshmen. They were the most annoying.

I got my name for school. The biggest problem I had coming to a huge college was deciding on my name. I have way too many things I go by. So my name is Siri. Everyone else in IN knows me by that so why not. And with all the Latin I have to learn I fit right in. Siri=dimunative of Sirius=Dog Star [Siri=of the Dog Star]. And no, I don't assign myself nicknames. My nicknames come from the people around me. I have a friend who is huge into Harry Potter. Some years ago [5/6] she noticed me and Sirius (book one, not movie one) had a lot of simular traits, looks and personality wise. So, I became Siri.

And I have a ton of homework. I just don't feel like doing it. -sigh- But I guess I have little choice. I'm paying a good deal of money for these classes.
