jengh Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 And I'm nervous as hell. My first class, sociology, starts at 9am. First of all, why the sh-- would I sign up for such an early class!!!? So, that right there is my scariest issue. Second..this is the first semester where all of my gen-eds are out of the way. thereforee, I'm actually STARTING "real" classes and this is sort of the beginning, in a way. I guess I'm just really nervous and having some anxiety. Today, I have Soc, 2 psych classes and a history-writing class. -DEEP BREATH-... someone send me good vibes. I'm really nervous Not to mention sick... Link to comment
Tigger6145 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Good Luck today! The first week of classes is always stressful. You will make it though! Link to comment
Siriana Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Good luck. I wish I could choose sociology on uni. And other classes you're taking - you'll have fun. Everything will be fine and great. And don't forget everyone is nervous equally as you are. 9 a.m. is not early ;-) Link to comment
IphigeniaSaysHi Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Good luck!!!!!! I am in your same boat in a couple days and I am not looking forward to it. MAJOR Senioritis going on. I could care less to even show up at this point. lmao We need to motivate each other, girl! Link to comment
big greg Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 man, the first day of the semester was always my favorite day! the classes are nothing more than just a meet and greet and you have no homework, and you get to see who you'll be in class with for the next 16 weeks. Link to comment

Somehow, though... I always end up with a ton of homework the first day. FAIL. lol! Link to comment
big greg Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 For real, that's a Total fail!!! I would have quit going alot sooner if that were to happen to me! The first days of semesters were what kept me going for so long.. Link to comment

The first days of semesters were what kept me going for so long.. I know. Hence my malfunction. haha! It seems like there is always 15 chapters to read and a writing assignment in each class. ...ew I hate school... lmao Link to comment
laisla Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 aww good luck! we have similar classes today i have disability studies, race & ethnicity, and community psychology. they're all back to back from 11-6pm! eek. man, the first day of the semester was always my favorite day! the classes are nothing more than just a meet and greet and you have no homework, and you get to see who you'll be in class with for the next 16 weeks. haha we only have school for 12 weeks, then exams.

jengh Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Thanks for the replies, guys... I'm having BAD anxiety. I know it's just class... and the first week is the easiest.... but I can't help it. I forgot my stupid concerta and kdjsfkjsafljs. I'm just... a bundle of anxiety. PLUS, my mom's still in town. Sociology went alright. It's set up weird. Apparently, there's some method to their 9AM madness. 4 profs run one Monday lecture and then Wednesday and Friday, we break off into smaller sections. Makes sense, I guess. I have another hour to kill. I went and got a coffee but now I'm mad I didn't get a pop. Haha. The things I complain about. I just feel like I don't belong in college... I've been at this particular university since Jan 2007. So, 2 years. I was sitting in my 300-level class (not high, I know, but it's not an intro) and looking around me at everyone saying HI!!! How are you!!!? And I knew NO ONE... I just hate that feeling. Link to comment
IphigeniaSaysHi Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I have been at my University since September of 2004. I STILL do not know people. Darn commuter school. Don't feel bad. And boy do I feel old. But I'm a super senior. 5 years, woot! Link to comment
jengh Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 ^^ That honestly makes me feel better... I'm going to be a super-super senior too, don't worry. I'll be 22 on Saturday and just NOW decided I want to do SW. I'm sooo behind. Some kid almost nailed me in the face with his crutches (okay and on a side note...if you're not going to USE the crutches, but rather carry them, WHY bring them?) Link to comment
ProtestTheHero Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Some kid almost nailed me in the face with his crutches (okay and on a side note...if you're not going to USE the crutches, but rather carry them, WHY bring them?) It's a status symbol, like House's cane. It's pimp. I too started my first day of class at 8:35 AM. Early, but it was chill. It's Spanish, and the teacher is like 23 and a grad student...super cool and apparently all the females are into him so that might add an interesting dynamic. On Tuesday and Wednesday I have one class done by 9:30 AM and no class on Friday. That's hellified awesome right there. I suck at the whole meet and greet stuff...what I do is get to know my section or corner of the room and just talk with them. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I start tomorrow. I signed up for Spanish just so I could have the min 60% courseload while I was on the waitlist for another class, but now I am contemplating taking Spanish. This was NOT in the plan! I really don't need it for Journalism... but I've always wanted to take it. Link to comment
IphigeniaSaysHi Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I start tomorrow, too... but didn't realize it until just now. Great start! HAHA Link to comment

That doesn't sound like a bad schedule. I just got home. Done til 6, and then I have it til 9. Just one at 6 tomorrow. Done by noon Wed and Friday. Meh. I'm HORRIBLE at the meet and greet stuff too, I actually dread it every semester. I also seclude myself to my little corner Link to comment

It's such a useful class to have. Even an intro will help you out in today's world Link to comment

Jeremiah Johnson Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'm envious. We don't start till next week. I'm starting at a new school and I can't wait. Think of not knowing anyone as an adventure... just be watchful for opportunities to jump into conversation and then go from there. It's gonna be fun! Link to comment

redrose85 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yup. So many young teens in my classes. I'm 23 and will *gasp* be 24 this summer. Oh well. Link to comment

Retard #2: "oh my god, you like SO are... but isn't he like..OLD?" Retard #1: "Yeah, he's like 23!!!!!!" kldsjflk;j;dlskafjlkfjl;jfldjs Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 ROFLMAO!!!! I'm turning into the girl in class who turns to the twinks and gives the stink eye, so they will shut up already. Your mommy and daddy may be paying and you may not want to be here, but I work hard for this, and I do. It's equivalent to "hey kids, get off my lawn!" I'm glad I work with mostly 30+ people at my job lol Link to comment
