More updates. Yay!
Alllllrighty! All of my teachers are pretty awesome, as far as I can tell. And I'm already procrastinating...soo school has begun! :D
A Teacher Recap:
1) Math Teacher. Name: Luc (Luke) Ups: Looks like Hugh Jackman; Downs: ...it's distracting. :) Ups: He's also really funny. Also, being beginning Algebra, I have a vague, if not somewhat limited, concept of what's going on.
2) Argumentative Writing
Name: Sharon. (its weird like Sarah's school. All the teacher's want to be called by their first names) Ups: We listened to a really hilarious podcast in class; Downs: Not every class will be like that. We also talked about Cereal and Sex....an interesting combination...
Least favorite teacher from the bunch. But it's only been one day...we'll see.
3) Psychology
Alright. I already pretty much fail this class: if grade is determined on how to spell "psychology". I just spent like, 4 minutes trying to figure it out.
Name: Rosanne.
.....my first thoughts were "Get me out of here." She's very...I don't even know. Like...gah. I need a face to face description. She's very unique ...But I liked her in the end. She's funny in her own way, but still...her. :P It's really hard to explain.
4) Photography.
Name: Tim
Someone told me he was grumpy. And I expected, you know, figuring the odds, that my last teacher would end up being awful. But, he's really nice.(YAY) I need to buy a camera (yay!/and no!) and he referenced some good, reliable, cheap (Student Discounts!!) sites to buy from. Soo awesome. But since it's digital, the class focuses on heavy editing, which I don't really like. I like...just plain, good, raw pictures. The way they were shot. But *shrug* I can handled it. It would be good to learn the program and use it when I need to, but I think for my own photos I won't use it.
Awesome. SO - classes tomorrow. Math and Writing. I'll probably give you all a schedule of some sort so you know where I am and when, in case you need something or what not....Maybe not. :P I hope you guys are having a good school..days...year. and I can betcha this: College is waaaaaayyy better. :) I love it.
Now I just need to stop procrastinating. ....graahh.
Oh! And Kosy!! Could you post some pictures from camping on Facebook (<-- haha...an anphiboly*) and tag me in them? Or send them in a message? Awesome. :) I might want a profile picture out of them.

*Critical Thinking Lesson of the Day:
Anphiboly - an argument/statement that commits a rather humorous fallacy. My favorite type. :)
Example:
Mr. Wilson shot an Elephant in his Pajamas.
...it can be interpreted lots of different ways. :) hahha. They always crack me up...

The first day of college has begun...
The Ups and Down's of my day.... :D
Down: Sitting in the hall waiting for the door to be unlocked and watching all the Early Honors people pass by into another room. All of them asking: "What class are you taking?" and having to answer: "Elementary Algebra", whilst they walked into the Calculus Class...ahh...the curse of un-intelligence.
UP: My teacher could be Hugh Jackman's younger brother, or a younger version of Hugh Jackman himself. 8D He also says "Super" really, really funny. He's half French and Half German...
Down: My argumentative writing class was switched, thus, my books were switched as well. SO - new books! :( Which are expensive...
UP: I bought the wrong book just yesterday, and didn't use it, so the bookstore gladly accepted it back and I bought my new (but USED!) books for way less and with the return money. :)
Awesome. Now, a haircut, new comics, and homework (<- Down) !! Overall, a pretty good day. :)
