One Week Down, 15 To Go!

The first week is done and I'm still enjoying it...a very good sign. All of my instructors seem pretty cool so that will definitely help. I have already found some annoying people in my classes, though...the ones who want everything handed to them and don't seem to have the initiative to go find the answers. Isn't that why we're PAYING these people to teach us...to learn and think for ourselves? Oh well...nobody's perfect. And no, not all of them are 18...some of the bigger whiners are closer to my age!
I'm not complaining...just surprised. But it's Friday, I'm off work for the day and have a few hours to get in some studying (have two quizzes next week). For those of you off for the holiday weekend, have a blast! For those of us working, it's worth it, right? :) I know it is or we wouldn't be doing it.
Have you heard the latest regarding the Presidential race? Obama chose a white dude for his VP and McCain chose a chick. No matter who wins, it'll be historical. Hopefully the right one will prevail...of course, I'm still trying to figure out who that will be. I did see a quote this morning in the news that is pretty close to where I'm at...something like, 'If McCain wins it won't be so good, but if Obama wins it won't be so bad.' Looking forward to the next several weeks to see what these two guys have to say...and how much of it I believe.
I know by their profiles a bunch of my friends on Facebook have definitely made up their minds. I sure would like to be that confident and sure of a candidate...and I haven't been for a long, long time. Just remember...if you don't vote, you can't complain! :)
Happy Friday!

1st Day of School

Well...don't expect too much college craziness from this post. My first day consisted of one 50 minute class that was really just a 'here's what to expect from this course' kinda thing. My A&P professor is sort of a hippie chick (which instantly makes me like her more!) At least no one was wearing pj's to the first day of class. What is it with people and their pajamas anyway? Who said it was okay (fashionable? No!) to wear them out in public...no thank you. And it started with girls doing it and then the guys jumped on the bandwagon. Are you too lazy to change out of your sleeping attire before leaving the house? Then don't leave. Stay at home and play some more Guitar Hero (I am totally NOT dissing Guitar Hero...excellent game!) I do NOT want to see your lounge wear in front of me at the grocery store. At least the 'kids' who I have seen wearing pj's to class opt for the flip flop over the house shoe...I'm very appreciative of that! Of course I can't say the same thing for the 'adults' wearing them to Wal-Mart! Just one of the many reasons I try to go there as little as possible. Grown women with children...dressed in pajama pants and slippers...at the store. I know the days of getting all dressed up for the movies are long gone, but come on! Can't we still differentiate between street clothes and bed clothes?
Okay...that is my rant for the day. I hope I haven't offended any of you, but if I have...you might want to put on a pair of jeans! :)
