Back to School :)

It's that time of year again. Yes, it's back to school time { everyone between the ages 6 to 25 moans}. Yesterday was my first day of class and my body turned traitor on me and I came down with the flu. My throat felt raw and my I was sure some one had hit me in the head with a hammer because my head was hurting so badly. Thankfully, today was better but I still haven't felt great. Anyway, I like all of my classes but I have a feeling that my mythology professor is going to be a stick in the mud. He gave us assigned seats for crying out loud! Are we in pre-school or something? I can't remember the last time I was assigned to a seat. What really annoys me is that I'm in the third row which is second to last. In the second and first row are all the tall guys so I can't see the blackboard, which is going to make things interesting. Other an Mythology, I'm taking British War and Immigration ( a required English class for some weird reason), Health and Wellness,  US Reconstruction, and Pathophysiology. I feel like this semester is going to be rather dull because most of my classes are General Studies. Since I still haven't taken my TEASE test, I won't be entering the nursing program till the winter term. A note to any freshman reading this. If your going to change your major do it early or you will wind up going to school forever like me.

Besides school, I had a nice encounter with guy a local bookstore and I realize I don't flirt very well, at least with guys my own age. I haven't really felt attracted to anyone for a while and he was fairly cute so I thought I'd give it a try. I guess I don't completely make an idiot out of myself since he asked for my number but I'm not sure if anything will come of it. But it did get me to thinking that I need to get out more. It's been 2 1/2 years since my last real relationship. I'm not really looking for extremely serious but I think I am ready for something... just not sure what.

A Coffee Day

{ Kitten wakes up, stretches, and stumbles to get a cup of coffee} I like getting up early but I'm not an early "doer." I much prefer to rest, sip coffee and enjoy a little me time before getting started for work. Today is one of those days where I have to start my school work, alas, so I thought I'd procrastinate a little and blog :)

I'm so glad essay 3 is finished. I felt so stupid because I screwed up the assignment royally and I didn't realize it till after I had submitted to be peer reviewed :( I felt really embarrassed because it was such an essay assignment and the professor had stated exactly what we were supposed to do. For some reason, I didn't argue my point; the paper was mostly factual....ok it was all factual. My mind was taking a vacation on a tropical island while I was writing it apparently.

Lil Sis and I have a sleep over planned Thursday! We haven't had one in a year I think and we have a lot of things planned. It makes me think about sleep overs we have had in the past which makes me a little nostalgic. I miss being little and not having to worry about a thing. I want to be carefree again!!!

It is officially August and in a little over three weeks, the Fall Term will have started. I want to take Modern Britain but I would have to drop a class and that class would be only an elective while all the others I am signed up for are classes I need to take. But its with Land (one of my favorite professors) and I like Britain. It would also go nicely with an English class I'm taking called British Immigration. I'm not that obsessed with England but it was either Brit. Immigration or Baseball! Would you believe they have an entire class devoted to literature on baseball!

I've been meaning to look for some foreign music to post but by having to redo essay 3, I haven't had a chance but I did find an interesting one. KurtHugoSchneider, is one of my favorite channels and he made this medley of songs by Rihanna. The singer is Matisse and I had never heard of her before but she has an amazing voice, so...
