First Day of Classes

So I am back to classes. I know it is sad that I am gone and I realize you are probably pining my absence. But I am very happy to be back. I have my routine again and it is nice to have a schedule and something that challenges my brain again.

I got in yesterday afternoon and my roommate was sleeping. So I left my stuff in the room, spent 15 minutes trying to find a place to park my car and then went to lunch. One thing of note. We watched a movie that evening and then at 11:00pm some guys decided to go to Palamini's (a restaurant in downtown Bellingham that sells Russian Dumplings.) I was roped into going and was designated as driver. So, the point is, it was very fun but I didn't get to bed until 12:30.
This morning I got up at 7:00 and got ready for the day. My roommate and I have opposite schedules so he is usually in class when I am not and visa versa. It is rather nice to wake up and have the room to myself every morning. Anyway, at 8:00 I had my first class, Beginning Weight Training. It should be a good experience, learning how to properly use equipment and so on. Also, it will get my blood flowing and brain working early in the day. Later today I have Psychology, Calculus and Chemistry.

The first day of classes is very slow. Most of the teachers only use about half the time, and spend it talking about how the class will work. So here I sit, with over an hour before my next class. (which will also end early, leaving me with time for lunch)

There was snow on the ground this morning as I went to class. The temperature is fine as long as there is no wind. Once the wind picks up then it is bad. It cuts right through your clothes, dragging the warmth from your very bones.

I must admit, hearing you talk about classes starting makes me ready for mine again... though I do have work this next week for my uncle to keep me occupied :D!!
In regard to the ads poll, Google Ads uses keywords from your blog to put four text ads either on the top of the page or in a sidebar. My blog generally ends up with ads from Christian T-shirt places and stuff; but if you do it, you are taking a risk that some word in something somebody says will cause Google to pull up something distasteful, so it kind of depends on the odds. But I've never been particularly bothered by them.
