Whoo-Wee. Thanks Giving has been nice. I spent the night with Riahl, and Katlyn, and Megan's dog Roni(e). At Riahl's I played me some go, winning 27 / 6, which was an improvement. Riahl heated up a burrito for me, and we went over to K's. She made nachos for us, and gave me a slice of her wicked awesome coffee-cake.

Ah studenty bumming around. It's nice this time of year.

On the downside, I didn't get much work done... I should do that later on today. I've got some mad: Ancient Philosophy, Pure Math, and ASL to catch up with. Okay. We're not staying in bed until 13:30 today... That's for sure.

ASL yesterday was incredible. We had our first silent class, which was fascinating. The dynamic was very different. My finger-spelling seems quite strong compared to the other students. We learned some facial grammar, and simple concepts like COPY, UNDERSTAND, FORGET, useful stuff. I like signing with my prof, she is intensely playful.

Then I went out and saw 3:10 to Yuma. Riahl and Drew went out with me, and it was incredible.

Today, the first day of school, was absolutely awesome. Very enjoyable. I had: Ancient Phil., Multivariate Calculus, Introduction to Pure Math, and Phil. of Science. There is an awkward pause between Ancient, and the rest of my classes, but I took the time to go and hang out with commandantrobot.

Classes are becoming more and more narrow, and my friends are aggregating upwardly. Most of my philosophically inclined buddies are in Ancient, and the mathematically inclined ones are in Pure of course. My prof.s are pretty awesome too, though the Calc. guy is a little hard to understand. My Science prof is very fresh, and a wee bit awkward. Luckily, he gets bonus points for being adorable and incredibly attractive.

In other good news, I got the marking job for the math department. So now I'll be marking Zhou and Tanese's MATH110 quizzes and assignments.

I just feel like I'm spreading myself too thin. I've got two jobs, attend two post secondary institutions, and am seriously over booked. When I get my schedule to Prof. Yassawi, it'll be full up. Hah.

Wow. I just found this. I've been wanting to study ASL forever, and I think that this is such an incredible resource for students like me. I think I might wind up taking ASL in September anyway, but what a place to explore! Thanks LifePrint.
