This is the Beginning of a Beautiful Freindship

Today was the first day of spring semester '09 and it wasn't terribly exciting, sadly. I didn't have class until noon so I got to sleep in, that’s always fun, but I did ride the bus to campus today and of course it was standing room only (being the first day of classes and all) Luckily I only almost fell over twice. I felt bad because I got stuck standing in one of the places that didn't have a vertical bar, so I was standing there with my arm above this chick's head and I kept shifting around (and thus bumping into her) because buses are scary and jerk around a lot. And then she got up at the first stop and we thought she was getting off, so we sat down in her seat, but in actuality she was letting someone else get off, so then I felt doubly bad. Fortunately other seats opened up.

After that adventure I went to my first class of the day at noon! Did I mention I don't have class until noon?! heh. But that class was fun, it was in the same room as its prerequisite was last semester and had pretty much the same people in it, so it felt like the same class, except that it was missing Andy, whose just about the most awesome prof. ever! Also my RA was in that class, which was kinda weird, but kinda cool. He's also in the same physics class as me. I'm beginning to think that maybe he's stalking me. Or wait! Maybe I'm the one stalking him! Gah!
Well after that I ran down the hill to Sloan and had another Comp Sci class, which was interesting to say the least. It was one of those classes that everyone in the major takes and everyone knows each other, and when you take it out of the normal order that people take their classes in, you end up being the only one in the class who knows no one else. That's kinda really lame. Well ok, I knew a few of the people because I had met them at my boyfriend’s place, but I don't actually know them, know them, ya know?
I also had physics today which was packed. I had to run all the way across campus in the 10 minute break we got and by the time I got to Webster there were only a few seats left, so I sat way up in the back, it wasn't until about half way through the lecture that I found the people I had signed up for the class with and saw they had an open seat next to them :( But the lecture was definitely interesting, to say the least. There was far too many demonstrations that involved the rubbing of rods...

Other than that, these last few days before classes started have been a blast. I got to do wild and crazy things with my roommates. We played some DDR and had a sleep over in the lounge while watching Waterworld (during which I was a loser and fell asleep) I was also forced to play some Halo 1 with my boyfriend. He's convinced that I will someday be able to play through it on Legendary... He just doesn't seem to understand that games with guns and I don't really get along. Yes, I am terrible at first person shooters. But I had to play, and I came in last place every round. Although it was a bit unfair, it was me and him versus three other people who were all pretty good at it. But it was still pretty fun. One map we played had a tank. I actually got pretty good at defending our base with it, heh. But I still was epic fail at actually killing anyone... Then my boyfriend’s roommate got pretty drunk and started harassing me until I played some crystal quest on their old Macintosh computer and/or gave him a high five or a hug.... awkward.

So now I am just sitting at work. I always seem to find myself blogging while I'm at work, maybe its because I have so much free time that should be spent studying, who knows. Sadly I have to close the lab tonight, mega lame... But I've had fun these last couple of days, I've tried to become a social butterfly, or caterpillar, or whatever, and am gonna try and survive the next couple of weeks!
