Popular Demand

I'm going to attempt to blog some more due to popular demand! Whooo! Or rather, insistent demand by one particular individual who will remain mostly nameless… Chris.

Anywho, here’s the basic rundown on all the important stuff:

Sleep: It’s not that I’m adjusting to living off of less of it… I’ve just learned to rearrange how I get my daily 7-10 hours. Basically, between campaigning, Humans Vs. Zombies, and just general hanging out, I get about 4-5 hours of sleep a night. During the day, however, I take long naps as soon as I get back from class. Fun stuff. On weekends, I basically sleep until 3-4PM.

School/Work: I’m doing pretty well. Still haven’t been able to shake either my procrastination habits or my “ehh, I don’t wanna read the book.” But to be honest, I don’t really have to. I think that if I had a class where I would need to, I would. These are not any of them.

-History: Fun. I enjoy the subject matter. We just got out of the “ancient world” and are getting ready to cover medieval times. Got a B- on the first test because I accidentally missed a class where they were passing out a study guide. I’ll be more careful.
-Art History: Again, love the subject matter. We’re covering ancient Egypt and are getting ready to cover ancient Greece. A- on our first test. Also, got my essay out of the way and now I don’t have to worry about it! Yay!
-Drawing: Pretty good. Got my first real take-home project. It’s a self-portrait. Yuck. I hate self-portraits. But I’m slowly starting to befriend people in the class. Apparently my snaky comments are appreciated there.
-Foundations: Probably my least favorite class. It’s very annoying and we don’t do much in the way of “fun.” But I enjoy talking to some of the people in there. I think my biggest issue is that it’s at 8am.
-Art Orientation: Hit or miss, really. Can be boring as heck or really interesting.
-Math: Not exactly “fun,” but I’m doing pretty well in it.

Social Life
It’s filled with geekiness. I’m either hanging out and having a laugh riot with Celeste (my wonderful roomie) and Courtney (my wonderful “second roomie,”) playing World of Darkness with Jesse, Ryan, Collin, Liz, and sometimes Caleb and Claire (it’s loads of fun,) or participating in Humans Vs. Zombies training missions and such (it starts this Thursday. I’m slightly terrified a little bit.) I’m pretty proud with how I’m holding up so far. I’m not as n00bish as I thought and even if I do get tagged, I enjoy being a zombie, so it won’t be so bad.

Haven’t done much in the way of socializing outside of that. Every Thursday I go to Ballroom Dancing for an hour, and it’s pretty fun, but I haven’t gone to a single party or a single game (and today’s homecoming!) I’m pretty content where I am socially, however.

All in all, for anyone who is wondering, college has been a vastly positive experience for me and I am enjoying it quite a bit. 8)
