heattttt
Auuuuuuuuuuuuuugh finally back in my warm happy room
So remember how I lost my iPod in the shuttle? They were still holding onto it, thank god. But I had to go get it myself at the shuttle company's office. The bus didn't get me very close, and it was raining. I was irritated. There was, however, a bus that was able to take me back. Which was nice.
Anyway, important thing is I got my iPod back. Musiiiiiiiiiiiiiic.
Other important thing is first class today. I hadn't realized that writing papers was going to be such a big deal; they expect something every week, on top of the big research paper due at the end. Learning that made me nervous; I haven't written a real research paper in years, and I've never enjoyed them much at all. But then I recalled that this is, essentially, what a college workload is supposed to be like, and I should suck it up because it doesn't mean the class is any less interesting. So I'll just. See how this works.

I found two things that help me with reports. One, take one report at a time and try to forget there is another for the class in X days. And if your professors give you a schedule of the course, copy them down onto a month calender. Test dates, report due dates, major assignments, quizzes, and so on. It helps me visualize and break all my classes down into more meaningful segments.

Ah, well. I guess I'll just have to get back into that when the time comes.
