And So It Begins... ^_^

Woke up excited for my classes. ^_^ I know that a lot of people get all sad at the thought of having to go back to school but for me... I just love school. :P Can't help it and though I may complain of school work etc., I still love it all!

Erin took the day off so she was the Kanais' chaffeur, driving them around so I didn't get the car. She was nice enough to drop me off for my first class though. It was good seeing Mr. Cassity again and there were a couple of familiar faces in History 281 class though nobody I knew very well. The teacher gives about five minutes for us to team up with a 'new face' and get to know them better. I paired up with this really nice guy named Jaco who turned out to have lived in Osaka a few years and speaks fluent Japanese (with a very strong Osaka accent)! So we spoke mostly Japanese to which Mr. Cassity was laughing at. :P

Since the class finishes at 12:00, at the SAME time my next class starts, I had to leave a few minutes then run aaaaaalll the way across campus to make it to Exercise in Sports and Science class. Made it in time and was so glad that Maki gets there early so she can save me a seat; it's a really, REALLY crowded class and if Maki hadn't saved me a seat, I would have had to sit way in the back or something. :S I prefer sitting at least towards the front where the teacher talks. From the first moment I really liked the teacher, Mr. Crowell. He's half-Italian, looks it, but talks local. lol! It was so funny when suddenly in the middle of his lecture he used the word "genki". lol! The class seems like it's going to be lots of fun; similar to health class back in KCIS but with the focus on each of the student's 'wellness'. Sounds like it's going to be lots of fun. Oh, and on an interesting note, the teacher it a Christian!

So, as you might have guessed, I don't have any lunch break at all so by the end of the ESS class (1:15), I was starved! :P Maki and I walked home and I immediately made myself a quick lunch. Naomi and I then left soon after to a jewelry store we go often which specialized in Hawaii jewelry. I might be getting a Hawaiian necklace so I'm hoping it works out. ^_^

Picked Maki up then Naomi dropped us off for our 3:15 Speech class. Much to our surprise, a classmate of ours from our very first semester is in our class! I saw him quite a bit on campus last semester, too, so we got to talk a bit afterwards since we walk the same way 'home'. The teacher, Mr. Johnson, is a really nice older man; very pleasant and 'jolly' (seriously, that's how I would describe him). Looking forward to this movie, especially since we're going to get to see some films in class!

Went home and fell asleep (by accident) on Naomi's bed. :P For dinner, the Kanais and 'us girls' went to eat Thai food. Since I had only a little bit for lunch, I was COMPLETELY starved so the food seemed to taste even more delicious than usual. lol!

Got home and did a little 'preparing' for tomorrow's classes, Psychology and Musical Theatre. I'm so much looking forward to the Musical Theatre class! Till tomorrow... I have survived my first day of the semester!
