now is as good as any

Well, it's been ages! and correction re: my previous entry, that was on the Monday I wrote it, not Sunday night as I'd thought at the time, Lol oh well!
So I went to orientation day and I find out, contrary to my belief we started the following week, I asked and was told we started classes the next day! Well, that happened, didn't it? Lol!
I would have damn well been on time Tuesday but I got extremely lost going to my building. But eventually I discovered where I went wrong so got there. Then didn't know where my room was so K from admin helped. Stories Cultures was good. O teacher was funny! I made my grand entrance and was making everyone laugh with my delightful tales of campus wandering!
We have a lot of the same group for all the classes, though a few of them vary. Public life was OK. Wednesday as I didn't have any homework just chilled here. Was already glad of a day off though! These long days are so tiring! am still ajusting again! Yesterday Learning to Learn was alright. Man we've got a big class though! Word processing was OK. didn't do anything. We set up our Swinburn accounts. So me now has two email addresses, not that I could log in to mine last night for some reason! *grr* will try again tonight and think I'll set it up to forward everything to my TPG one. Also if we know all and want to get exempt from the word processing class, we have to do all the assignments to prove it to her D.
Today, well am just tired! I didn't have to be there til 11 so I had a nice little sleep in. Then I met K at Blackburn station and we had a lovely chat. She was on her way to RVIB. So yeah today went alright. Learning to Learn and Public Life.
We have written pieces due next week for both those classes.
I feel like a different person. I am going to be sooo so so motivated this year! I am surprising myself actually as I am already taking down more accurate notes. and so far it's been great where the teachers will read out what they're writing. So this year, it's gunna be hopefully High distinctions baby! :)
So far, I am a drifter in our group. I'll hang out with different ppl at different times, but at the same time, stick to myself still a lot. That will change though, but another aspect I have changed in. I use to always have to have friends from the start, but now I realize I go there to study and that is number 1 for the time being until I do just click real well with someone.
Most have come out of year 12, some had come out end of 02 and had tried another course last year and didn't like it. and a few are mature aged! But going around introducing each other in Learning to Learn yesterday, it was amazing how many ppl were aiming to get into secondary school teaching!! It was literally like half the class! I was sooo pleased. I mean I thought I'd be the only one eventually going there from this course; but not by a long shot!
So yeah things are going along smoothish though I haven't spoken to the DLO yet. maybe next week! I still just love having no notetaker. I mean all through CAE it was like that, but I dunno, just love feeling like everyone else. Guess Vermont really started to haunt me for ever!
OK in other news Valentines day tomorrow! yeah yeah whatever. i remain hopeful! but that's my second name - Hopeful! lol!
OK I go! just thought I should update this then get on to my friends page. I will break tonight and do my writing tomorrow I feel!
Til Next Time, RdFreak
