ZzZzZz = College Life

Last night, we had the president's ball, which was fun.

I'm getting an x-ray tomorrow and could use some prayers.  It's not  that I can't make another few weeks of this because I get around really well.  I just miss soccer - alot.

Here is a list of all of the classes I'm taking this fall:

Bio Lecture and Lab
Honors History of Ideas
Honors Rhetoric
Theatre Appreciation
First Year Symposium


Homework is starting to pick up.  This weekend I'm writing 4 papers, but most of them are short.  I really love my classes though.  I'm turning into a nerd because  I never realized how much I love understanding subjects before.  Coming from a homeschooling background, I never had the opportunity to go to class every day.  I talk so much class.  Its pretty funny.  And I've definitely seen that being able to teach yourself subjects has been so good for me in college.

Honors classes are so much more intense than my other classes.  I'm really glad I'm in the Honors program because I am learning so much.  What I especially love is that the professors take the time to make sure we understand the difficult texts or their critiques of our written work.  It's a very learning conducive environment and the people I'm living with are such a great group of smart, silly, and genuine people.  I was sick this week and the way they took care of me was just like I was a part of their family.     People just pop by our suite and we throw parties! The other night we threw a nail/smoothie/bollywood party in our room.

And that's my update on college life!
