poo on pre-reqs

I love being a transfer student, let me tell ya'.

Even though I have 2 years of reporting experience they won't let me get out of the class or take it while taking a different one. So looks like I will be here for 5 semesters instead of 4.

Poo.

The end is near

My favorite time of year is upon us all. Classes are once again resuming at whatever institution you have deemed your home and I love it. I love the buzz and the people and the moving in madness and all the lines everywhere for everything and I love seeing people again. Plus I am a weirdo when it comes to classes and note taking and assignment books and agendas and all of that fun stuff.

Classes, for me at least, start tomorrow. Mostly on Wednesday, but tomorrow I have choir at Parkland. 

Tuesday is Quad Day! I need encouragement to go audition for "No Comment" so drop me a line, a phone call, an e-mail or a postcard until I am almost forced to face my fear of auditions. Plus, on Quad Day I will get to meet some of my sisters, which I am both deathly afraid and highly anxious.

This week will be great (I'm surmising). 

I'll let you know at the end of the week as to whether or not I am right.
