OVERWHELMED.

Ahhhhhhh, so I had orientation.
It was okay. It went better than I'd expected. At least I had Alec and Dezi with me for a lot of it.
There were some boring parts, but it was good.
I started to feel really overwhelmed and unsure by the end of it, though.

There were certain things that were kind of funny though.
I liked all of the Computer Science guys. They were hilarious.
There was one super tall freak (I'm talking 6'7''...), one who talked to himself all throughout registration, one who had a severely sunburned neck, etc.
So entertaining.
I will enjoy them.
I also enjoyed being informed that so far I'm the only female (who's gone through orientation yet) going into Computer Science....not.
It doesn't really matter, but it'll be WEIRD.
I just want to go about my business and learn some computer shit. xD I don't want people to think that I'm trying to make some big feminist statement.
I'm just there because I love computers....srsly. That's it.

I like how I'm in the College of Science & Mathematics and I'm absolutely math-retarded. Like, it's appalling how horrible I am. I really am terrible.
MATH. It WILL be my downfall, no doubt.
I have to take too much nasty MATH and related subjects for my major, like Calc I, Calc II, Discrete Mathematics, Probability, and Statistics. WTF. W.T.F.
Why did I think that Computer Science was such an excellent idea?
I'm an idiot and a slacker.
I don't see this turning out well, but I guess school hasn't even started yet, so...
I should probably just calm down.

I'm pretty okay with my schedule so far.. I guess it's tentative, but I'm pretty sure that this is how it'll be..

Mondays: English 120 (8:00-8:50 AM), Pre-Calc (10:00-10:50 AM), and Computer Science I (12:00-12:50 PM).

Tuesdays: Computer Science I (12:00-12:50 PM), Pre-Calc (3:00-3:50 PM), and Intro to Psych (6:00-8:30 PM).

Wednesdays: English 120 (8:00-8:50 AM), Pre-Calc (10:00-10:50 AM), Computer Science I (12:00-12:50 PM), and that University Studies required class (2:00-2:50 PM).

Thursdays: Computer Science I (12:00-12:50 PM) and Pre-Calc (3:00-3:50 PM).

Fridays: English 120 (8:00-8:50 AM), Pre-Calc (10:00-10:50 AM), Computer Science I (12:00-12:50 PM), and University Studies class (2:00-2:50 PM).

I think it'll be okay...
My classes are located mostly in the same sort of area, and I know what/where most of the buildings are already, so that really helps.
I don't have any classes right after another, which could be nice. I don't know.
I think it'll be fine...if I don't DIE in math or computer science...
Overall I'm neither dreading college nor looking forward to it.

I'm excited for all of the computer nerds, though, I have to admit... I only got a small taste of them at orientation. There were only like...6 or 7 other ones.
I'm especially excited for the University Studies class because I'm taking it with all Computer Science majors, so that should be a HOOT...a righteous HOOT!

I'm okay with staying in town now...for the most part.
Part of me still wants to be a Drexel Dragon, but whatever.
It'll be fine.
I'm still really stressed though...but I'll try to enjoy the rest of the summer, especially Harry Potter 6 and Nationals! They're coming up! x]

Today was a pretty bad day overall, though.
Sure, it was nice to see Alec for the first time in a while, and I mostly had a good time with Laura and Josh, but ughhhhhhh......I got so overwhelmed by the end of orientation, and then I returned home to some great news from my parents. I guess my dad has cancer. All in all...awesome day for sure.

I think I was acting pretty strangely tonight.
I'm like...ridiculously depressed, but it's different. It's really weird. I can't explain it. I don't actively feel like, "oh life sucks, I feel horrible, fuck this," but I'm just in a general majorly down mood. I doubt that really makes any sense, though...

Well.
That's about it.

First of all, Stats=easiest class ever!! So dont worry about that one just yet haha! We might end up taking the same math classes too if I end up doubling majoring in elementary education and math education, so we can both fail together :P nah we would probably end up helping each other out haha =)

Im sorry you had a bad day and Im sorry to hear about your dad! =(

love,
