time for a change

so... yesterday was the first day of my phys 12 course. we had a practice quiz today and i didn't finish answering the question... i swear i didn't have enough time...

anyhow, i think it's really weird how easily we transition (or at least i did) into lecture mode from high school lessons. going "back in time" is really weird. we take attendance and do classwork in groups and get breaks to practice doing some examples... it's weird. i even got my lab group "in trouble" today for talking too much. by "in trouble" i mean the teacher asked us to show him what we'd done so far (which wasn't too little... or toooooo much) but yeah we had done SOME so he was like, okay. he seems nice yet annoying or else like a hardcore child pornography-obsessed crazy. haven't decided yet.

it's a lot of work. i've got class 5 days a week now (3-6pm for phys and wed & fri at ubc from 930-1230) and the class is right in the middle of the day so i can't take any weekday shifts at work for now. might be a good thing... i can actually study..? i work weekends exclusively. every saturday i get a cashing shift (from around 10/11 to around 630/730) and every sunday i close in the bakery (230 to 10pm). i'm getting okay at it. i don't get sore, really, anymore.

and i don't know about you, ann, but disneyland was a hell of a lot funner than what i'm doing... ugh. 5 days a week!!! it's amazing in a disgusting way. but yeah. this is a definitely a working summer. shit, i can't wait till i'm done this. i believe i'm going camping for the first time ever and also dan said his mom wanted to go to the islands and rent a cottage thing and that i could come! i hope so. let's definitely go to playland... because i haven't gone in a long time. if we're doing something on the weekend though i need to request the day off 2/3 weeks ahead of time so let me know...

okay, i'm tired. blah. sorry i haven't posted in a while. i just had my first macroecon midterm today and i was studying for it for a while (really!)...

i know i only need to pass phys to get the high school credits (the mark isn't looked at, as far as i know, because it's only a high school record and i already got accepted to ubc, of course) but like... i don't know. it's still really stressing me out. :P not good.

okay, post back!
