Another Good Day

It's really not as bad here as I've been making it out to be. There have just been bad days and they are usually the ones I write about, but today I had a pretty good day.
I only have one class on Tuesdays and Thursdays; Criminal Justice. We had out first test today and it was on chapters 1-4, I only studied for about an hour and I got a 92, pretty good lol. My friends Derek and Kristin are also in that class with me. Derek is a CJ major and I was so determined to get a higher grade than him, but he ended up getting the same grade. I tried to study with Kristin, unfortunately Raisa and Lisseth came in and distracted us so I left and studied on my own for a while. Kristin didn't do so well on the test and I felt really bad so I told her we would actually study next time, we'll go to the lounge or study quad or something so we don't get interrupted.
After class I came back and decided I was way too tired to do anything so I took a nap, only to be awakened by a fire alarm. Gotta love those lol. I was so disoriented, for some reason I thought I was in Raisa's bed and I couldn't figure out what was going on. Amanda and Raisa were in here and they were yelling at me and laughing telling me to get up, I eventually did after a few minutes.

Last night was a lot of fun too. The FYMs (first year mentor) have to come up with certain programs for us and stuff, so Andrea deicded to put on this thing called Risky Behaviors. Bascially she made us go down to hte lounge and some guy from hte health center gave us candy and condoms and we went over "risky behaviors". At the beginning we had to introduce ourselves and say one embarassing moment, so when they got to the pimpettes we gave each other's embarassing moments...Raisa said mine. I guess she finds it funny how I jump up every morning when either one of our alarms go off and I pretty much fall out of my bed in doing so. A couple times I actually have fallen though, my feet get stuck in my sheet sometimes lol. It was fun.

I've also decided that sociology isn't the course I have to worry about this semester, as long as I do the reading and pay attention in class. It's actually becoming one of my favorites. Philosophy is the one I'm not sure about. The professor is awful, he honestly does not know how to teach. I sit with Denise and Adam and we just talk about how he is an awful teacher and can't explain things at all. So I basically have to teach myself. Denise and Adam help a lot, they know more about what's going on than I do. After I get the first 2 grades I'm going to decide if I'll go for the pass/fail option. It won't count toward my GPA but I'll get the credit if I pass, and it'll show up on my transcripts as a P. So I might do that, but I really don't know yet.

Char and I have been thinking about transferring and we are probably going to finish out the year here just for convenience reasons, but if it gets to be bad for either of us we'll go next semester. Things are still in the air on this one. I guess that's it for now.

10 days until I go home!! :-D
