Grassy Knoll

Well, I am super-officially a University student now! I went to my first class today, one I was waitlisted for, and got in! Thankfully I was only #4 on the waitlist anyway, but the three before me on the list showed up too so it was a close call! Only one or two didn't show up for the first class, but the professor allowed us all to join anyway. Yay!

I even got in his good books already, as he was having difficulty trying to find Powerpoint on the computer he was using as a projector, and I stepped up to help him. I find it very odd that a professor who's been teaching this class for years (apparently) was only using the projector PC for the first time this semester, but oh well. After a moment of hesitation with it, he said, "Okay, where's a computer guy?".. meaning a guy in computer classes, I guess. I ignored his obvious blunder (assuming only guys would be in that kind of class) and was the only one to put up my hand to offer help. So there. :P He also made reference to his God a couple times, and I sure hope he didn't offend the others in the class who aren't Christian. Personally, I can tune out references like that, or try to understand the larger picture of what he meant (he was talking about how God made the earth, mankind didn't do it)... but he really should watch his terminology in class.

He doesn't seem like a bad teacher though, and I'm sure as long as one is able to ignore his faux pas, it'll be fine. :)

I won't bother going to the second BUS 100 class I was waitlisted for, so I get to sleep in tomorrow! yay! I am still going to go to the BUS 120 class, even though I'm #19 on the waitlist. Highly unlikely that I could make it in, but we'll see. What really sucks is I woke up sick today, so that put a damper on everything! Sore throat, stuffy nose, headache, dizzy/woozy, the works! But I still went to school early today to take in the BBQ action (music, flyers, info for new students) and check out what's where.

Sucks having class until 7pm though cuz the night buses are annoying. Oh well. Oh.. and the Grassy Knoll is the outdoors hang out spot where ppl were hanging out listening to the DJ and eating their BBQ today.
