I'm already pissed off at Blogspot and thinking about moving back to the old, but dependable, standby:Livejournal. Andrea, Morgan, yes no? I hate how you can't reply to each others comments nor add specific readers as friends. Faulty I say, FAULTY!
So I just finished up my first poetry class and she let us out about an hour early. I t was kind of nice as I woke up late. I actually woke up very early and then decided I was to cold to get out of bed and waited for my alarm to come ringing into my brain, reminding me of another day. Sadly, I fell back asleep after my alarm went off and woke up only 45 mins. before class. I jumped in the shower, threw my hair back in braids, and ran off to class. It's raining buckets here in Monmouth, I would venture to say more then in Tillamook. It also snowed for a little while last night. The weather in this town is BIPOLAR. I'm praying for better weather days.
Back to my poetry class. The teacher is...intense. She tells it like it is, emphasizes on how easy it is for her to fail you and the ways you can ease her into not doing so. Beyond her gruff first impression, we went over a few poems today and she really exposes some light to the literal and metaphorical meaning to each piece of writing; interpretations I never would have thought of. I'm thinking her and I could be a love/hate relationship. Love when she feeds me good poetry and exposes my eyes to unseen meanings of one of my favorite forms of literature and Hate when she kicks my ass and makes me work hard. We shall see, I have her again on Thursday.
Right now, I'm sitting in Academic Advising waiting for an Advisor. I'm a little concerned about my classes and how they apply to my major and need to find some sort of chart to explain to me what classes to take in the next few years. It's all so confusing!
Confusion is not only the "Word of the Day", but I'm feeling as if it will be the "Word of the Month". I'm cannot explain how cranky it has made me not being able to find buildings. I literally stopped at one point today, trying to find Academic Advising, and just looked around me and realized I had no idea which direction I was going. I finally tapped a short, stout student from one of my English classes and asked where I was and where I was going. I got directed to a building which then directed me to where I am now. I have decided it takes, on average, two different stops at two different buildings before you end up where you need to be.
After this I'm off to buy more sticky tack for my walls as my enormous dry erase board fell off the wall at around 2am this morning as well as everything below it. I also gotta pick up some WOU gear for Kyle so he can sport it proudly :). Then I need to activiate my ID as they didn't do it right the first time and then I will be able to eat food.
Somebody send me some mail to.
shit! they are here to help! Bye
