it's a pretty nice schedule i think. the walking is a bit much, and i'm never early enough to get a good seat without crawling over people, but it'll have to do.

Italian is interesting. It's been a long time since I've been in an introductory language class and it's a bit frustrating to be stuck learning phrases like a tourist instead of the nitty gritty grammar stuff. Ah wells. The professoressa is a nice lady and the class is full of decent human beings insofar as i can tell. No annoying people yet. :] score.

Biology 11 is an introductory Biology class for nonBio majors. The professor is tall and lanky with a slight accent that i really cannot place. But he's white. He also said that if we were looking for an easy course to boost our gpa's, this wasn't it. oh joy. It should be ok though, considering how every couple years since seventh grade I've been force fed some form of biology.

MCB 50 is an immunology and disease course. The first third is about the immune system. The second third is about infectious diseases. The third third is about non infectious diseases. Sounds awesome right? ^^ My professor for this one is smart and fast paced. He doesnt believe in homework, we have no textbook, and he explains things really well. He's a good teacher, but its hard to take notes in that class since he moves so quickly. He's kinda funny too. Seems like the kind of teacher that I would want to be if i were ever to be a teacher.

History of Art R1B is a writing course. We look at art and write about it. My instructor is an Indian woman with a British Indian kind of accent. Her focus is on Asian art, especially Japanese art. There are quite a few papers to be writing, and I already have one due on Feb. 1, but that is to be expected since it is meant to fulfill the second half of my writing requirement.


I need to apply to L&S. (college of letters and sciences)
remember that I am still technically in the college of chemistry?
I think i'll go do that now.
Then i'll cook dinner for myself.
I hope it stops raining soon.
