i'm thinking wow
that freshman orientation was overwhelming, it took like five hours to sign up for classes
food was expensive, the seminars were boring
but phew i made it back in once piece
which is very good considering having to drive on the interstate home during a torrential downpour
eh and of course all the statistics talk of scare yourself shitless rape seminar :O
but I had an okay time
and i was glad that i was able to go down and stay there by myself without having any problems, it made me feel a lot more independant, it was a little unnerving, being by myself in a differnt area where i didn't know anyone
but fortunately the adults were very helpful i was able to get a map and a list of restraunts downtown where i could get some food,
so i was able to find a subway and a nutrismoothie on campus
and i there were people that told me where the cam buses would take me
so i was able to find where we signed up for classes and the dorm i was staying in for the nights,
so i was able to avoid any kind of stress provoked mental break down
yay
i think i succeeded in appearing to be a normal human being and i got to chat with some other normal people and some cool people at least on the first day, the second day i'm pretty sure i looked like a zombie due to lack of sleep
then we finally got to do some fun stuff at night and i played volleyball for 2 hours stright
and needless to say i'm still recovering from that
Jesus Christ volleyball players are tough, that ball hurts soo much
so ya i talked to my student advisor and i told him i was really interested in the environment, and science, but i'm not very strong in math and chem
so he recommenced that i major in geography
i don't really know much about majoring in geography, does anyone here know much about it?
because i told him when i think of geography i just think of maths and crap, (although i am pretty good at finding countries on the amp)
he said there was a lot more to it
so i've been googling geography majors and it looks like i might be able to do some cool stuff like ii guess meteorology and like oceanography is kinda involved, which i makes me glad because i took some classes on that my freshman year in high school and i did pretty well in it and i enjoyed it.
of course i haven't been able to see the course requirements
which makes me a little nervous even though i still have like7 more semesters left to
picking and choosing the classes, and being able to actually get the classes you wanted was so ver tedious
it feel weird because my major is going to involve science, that i really like and really want to study, but i was unable to take any science classes
so i don't know it's all very strange
but the group leader was pushing CIC or courses in common which i guess is good to meet people
wait i just remembered i'll be taking some kind of exploarations in math science and computing
eww math and computing nasty
i talked to someone who said it should more fun than like a hard math class oh god i hope so
(it's required for my housing, i don't want to be kicked out of my residence hall or i'll be homeless)
my cic is interpretaions of literature, and social psychology
so ya about all this you can tell i'm scared shitless at the thought of failing at college
becuase ya it's very iportant
and i feel like if i don't do this well i'll be skrewed for the for the rest of my life
* tries to suppres urge to hyperventalate*
i mean so many questions
can i handle the course load and work
will i able to be able remember my schedule,
can i do the laundry without ruining my clothes or the machines ( or room)
and am i mature enough to be a college student despite the fact that about 20 minutes ago i was doing that stupid thing little kids do ,where you're listening to music and you make your teddybear dance, and it's real cute
*facepalms*
god i am such a child
and a sleepy child thanks for listening to my qualms everybody
