Defend the Kingdom

So, the year has begun. My fifthteen year of being academically challenged by the education system is underway. It has promise to be one of the better years of learning, seeing as I have finally gotten to the point where I can take classes that strictly pertain to my favorite areas of study.

If you were unaware of what I am taking this semester, here is the list.
Intro to Creative Writing
Graphic Design 1
Intro to 3D
Art History: Rennaisance to Modern
Intro to Psychology

Now a few facts for you to chew on:

1. I am taking the single largest class taught this semester, Psych 101, with 418 enrolled. Now, we all know not that many are going to show up. It is being taught in the largest classroom on the IU campus. The first day we didn't have AC. It was 95 outside. Dwell on that for a while.

2. I get to use the most awesome computers ever in my Graphic Design class. Huge 24" Macs, with the CPU and monitor all as one sleek looking machine. I get excited about using them every time I walk into the room.

3. For 4 years of my life, I went to class knowing there would be nothing but guys in the room with me. Well the coin has flipped. There are 22 people in my Graphic Design class, and there is one guy other than me. That leaves the rest as girls. Thats a new one for me.

4. My Japanese 3D teacher says she has been speaking English for 15 years. I don't believe her.

5. Guster is coming to the IU Auditorium on October 2nd. Bob Dylan was announced, and he is coming to Assembly Hall on October 19th. I'm going to see Nickel Creek in Louisville on the 20th, and hope to see them in Bloomington on the 18th. That is the greatest month of concerts ever. You are jealous.
