No me gusta escuela.

Where to begin! So classes have started and they are CRAZY but I still love being back at college. I like being busy again it's so nice, when I look back at the past few months I can't figure out how I lived because now when I'm stuck in my apartment doing nothing for a few hours I start to go crazy.
Classes... well I'm taking 14 credits so it's not too bad but I hate lecture type classes and most of them are lecture so it's way boring. I'm taking...
eng312 and everyone in my class is mearried (I guess I should have figured that when I signed up for a junior class) but considering English is my least favorite class it's not too bad, the teacher is pretty nice and we do a lot of group projects which definately has it's down falls (when there's 9 people in your group all with different schedules it's difficult to meet outside of class to finish projects).
rel121 which is the first half of the Book of Mormon, it's not bad and really relaxed which is nice because I've heard too many stories where someones religion teacher was crazy and they had pop quizzes and major tests all the time, none of that so far:)
arch100 which is a lecture class and so amazing oh wait all I do is sit there and learn stuff I don't really need to know (most of the people in the class want to be architect's or something like that, an interior designer doesn't need to know all that stuff but luckily it's a class of over 50 and there's only about 5 girls, NICE).
arch102 the lab that goes with the lecture, you would think it would be better since it's not a lecture and more of a hands on but so far we're just learning the basics so it's a lot of busy work, I'm hoping once we get past learning terms and such we can start drawing floor plans and fun stuff.
soc112 sociology is a kind of hard and boring lecture class but everything I've learned so far is really interesting, focusing is the only problem I have, mainly because I just get distracted too easily.
art220 is a cermaics class and won't help my major (I'm taking it as a fun class) but a 3 hour long class sure goes by slow, I have it twice a week and one of the two days is lecture (way boring) but luckily the other is hands on and sooo fun! I've already made a vase and a jewlery box (well my own version of them, the vaze looks nothing like what you think a vase is but I made it to hold flowers so that makes it a vase and the jewlery box doesn't have a lid and is in the shape of a flower not a box but I made it for my jewlery therefore jewlery box).
Wow... so that's my life currently, that and sledding, tubbing, movies, games, walking around in the freezing cold (it was -35 degrees when I left for class the other day, with the wind chill, 12 degrees is my new warm, SCARY I know), and most importantly dating:) Oh yeah and every once in a while I try to catch some sleep but that's the last thing on my mind.

So where are the pictures????? We want to see your ceramics, friends, roomies, "dates"...etc. Hang in there with the boring classes thing...it'll get better (or you'll get use to it).

Hey - great to hear all the details about your classes. The only prob was we didn't get to hear about the dating scene?? I haven't been on gmail for a few days so I'll check and see if you've sent me an update on that?
