I have survived my first two days. I didn't sit down in the wrong class room, I have not forgotten a class, have not had my phone go off like a "freshman". This week I start at 11:30 MWF, which has been really nice so far. I have Bio first on those days, beginning with the 140 student lecture. So far it seems pretty straight forward... hopefully review after last year's AP Bio class. Then the 250+ student Honor's seminar followed by the accompanying 25 student discussion. My professor for the discussion is Australian and seems really energetic and will keep everyone interested and excited. I am proud to say that I am on course with reading, finishing 130 pages on the Odyssey in less than 2 days! My Chemistry class seems like fun, the professor surprised all of us by showing up having roughly memorized all of our names! My religion, I mean
theology class, seems interesting and the professor again, seems wonderful and engaged and caring for the students. When he learned that I was a French major, he began speaking to me, IN FRENCH, in front of the whole class. So much for staying unnoticed to the Seniors for the first week... And as it turns out, my neighbor and I confused him as we, the two Abby's in the class, just happened to be sitting next to each other. I had my 3 hour lab this evening, which passed pretty quickly. In my spare time I've been running (quite hot and humid here) and reading lots. I love going to the IC (Info Commons) which is a glass building looking out onto the lake to just sit in a comfy leather seat and ready. I try not to let the lake distract me. I am really really excited about all my classes and to getting to know my professors and other classmates (wonder if I'll say that 2 months from now...) And I am really much looking forward to fall so that the frigid air conditioning will hopefully disappear!
