The Journal of CSI_Sanders1129

So, first day of classes is done. I only had 2 today, which is nice. I have 2 tomorrow, too. And then just 1 on Wednesday. 2 on Thurs, and 1 on Friday and then (assuming the weather decides to be nice and not evil), I'm going home for a concert on Saturday.

As for today's classes, first was Early Modern Lit (Renaissance Era, essentially) and it's not that scary. Definitely less intimidating that Revolutionary Era last semester. Granted the Prof is less awesome when compared with the Professor from Revolution Era.

The other class, Civil War & Reconstruction, is significantly more awesome. The professor who teaches it taught the Awesome!Prof back when he went here - the same class, at that - and that should give you an idea of how long he's been teaching. But, in comparison to the guy who NEEDED to retire after teaching for 40+ years from last semester who fucked up my straight-A streak, I'm sad just knowing that this is this Professor's last semester. I'm pretty sure Awesome!Prof inherited a lot of his teaching style (and his sense of humor/lecturing skills) from this guy. I do, however, have to read a 500 page novel (Uncle Tom's Cabin) before next Monday. Which is totally doable, but I am clearly not going to get to read the other two Bay City Paranormal Investigation books for a while and that makes me sad.

Also, it snowed today. Glad to see Frostburg isn't disappointing. And it wasn't even terribly cold out today. :3

So, still sick. Which sucks, majorly. I've had a collective five hours of sleep over the last two nights because I can't stop coughing. It's so annoying. I can't wait to not be sick. I have, however, watched like every Scooby Doo episode ever (Where are You!, Scooby Doo Show, and what was released on DVD for New Scooby Doo Movies) along with most of the movies (Boo Brothers, Reluctant Werewolf, Ghoul School, Zombie Island, Witch's Ghost, and Alien Invaders) along with the only one of the CGI movies I can stand to watch (Mystery Begins). And, no I don't care that I'm 20 years old and watching Scooby Doo. At all.

It was also funny watching everyone freak out over the two inches of snow we got down here. Schools closed all over the place and it was funny knowing that if I were still in Frostburg, we most assuredly would have still had classes. And hearing people whine about 25/30 degrees being cold is just laughable.

Did get a book read in my state of forced-insomnia, though. Seven Tears Into The Sea = Done.

Hopefully I'll be not-sick enough to go to work on Friday.

I woke up at like 8:30/9 this morning so I could go fetch my Soc Sci paper. Even though I didn't particularly want it. Jackass professor. 8:3-/9 doesn't seem so bad, especially since I'll be up at 7 tomorrow, but it seemed horrendous at the time since I was up until 4am trying to do laundry (which apparently everyone on my floor was also doing, but no one was on the floor below us, so I ended up monopolizing their washer/dryer. Guh.

Going home tomorrow. I spent most of today hanging out with paytofay and her awesome roommates. Just finished packing/studying for my 8am final. Then going HOME. And then going to work.

My cousin went home today - it was snowing like crazy here pretty much all day so that wasn't quite a good idea. She texted me about an hour away form here and was like 'The roads are hell. I've almost died like 4 times.' So she called her Mom and had her come pick her up. Fun fun fun.

1. Still snowing. Weather reports can't seem to make up their minds on if it's going to snow on Friday or not. Hopefully not.

2. Got my Kent State paper back today - got an A.
So far grades are:
Literature of Revolution: A
Writing and Research in History: A
Soc Sci Advanced Comp: ?
Philosophy: Ancient & Medieval: ?

3. I have done absolutely nothing today except play DS games.

1. Yeah, I know, the 12 Days of Christmas technically start on Dec 25. But I don't care.

2. It's snowing again. And apparently it's pretty much supposed to snow all week again. As long as I can get home on Friday morning, I do not care.

3. Just took my second to last final. Oh my God, my hand. We were allowed to type out the essay in advanced and then we had to handwrite it in class. Which makes no sense at all. Also, the thing we typed? Had to fit on a 3x5 index card. Mine was 1300 words long. Do you know what you have to do to get 1300 words on an index card? It involves 6 point font, for one thing. 6 point font then involves a lot of squinting. It took roughly an hour of non-stop writing. And ow.


Now I just have my last Philosophy exam on Friday... at 8am.

So, amazingly there was no snow today. I almost feel lost without the snow now. It is, however, still ridiculously cold.

I handed in two papers today, for Soc Sci Advanced Comp (and also left a scathing evaluation for the Evil!Prof (or Anti-Awesome!Prof?) and my Kent State portfolio. Now all I have left to do is write out the essay for my Lit of Revolution exam on Monday and take my last Philosophy exam on Friday. And then I get to go home!

Tonight was also the History Club banquet. Which was just awesomely hilarious. Like my face still hurts from laughing. We went to Ruby Tuesday's (which, yum, food that isn't from the Dining Hall, yay!) and we were there for like 3 hours. And this was after nearly a 3 hour meeting in History Club earlier in the afternoon. So. Much. Fun.

I warned you this song would reappear.

Only snowed a little this morning. I am amazed. It'll p[robably snow again tomorrow. More than likely.

So, it is snowing for the 8th consecutive day now. It is also freezing. As should probably be expected given that it's snowing. We're also kind of in a valley, so the wind just sucks. Frostburg is certainly frosty.

On the plus side, I am officially done going to two of my classes, though I still have stuff to do. I've got two papers (one for Social Science Advanced Comp, and the last version of my Kent State paer, which also requires a written progress report that will take five minutes to type. Those are both due Friday. I've got to write an essay out over the weekend for my Lit of Revolution exam on Monday, and I've got my Philosophy Final Exam next Friday. Almost done!

Still snowing. Still. Classes were late today, started at 10AM, of course. Even if I had class today, I would have been unaffected. Fail.

1. Still snowing... Frostburg is living up to it's name.
