Classes, Books and the First few days of Uni

Well I’ve made it through my first three days of classes go me. So far my classes all seem fairly interesting. My Math class’ professor is a bit odd, but what can you expect from a math professor.

Both my Micro and Macro Econ teachers appear to be interesting enough. Of course the fact those classes have over 400 people in them does not help at all. They are both in the same lecture hall and the discussion class is held in the same hall and not broken into smaller groups. I’m not really sure why they call it a discussion when there are over 400 people there, since 400 people do not discuss anything all together.

Ancient History looks interesting. I like the professor he seems like a nice guy. He spent the first class showing us the difference between his dog princess and humans. Well 5 minutes of the class but it was still entertaining. That class has 140ish in it but at least those discussion sections are broken down into groups of 20 which can actually hold discussions on things.


So so far I’m pretty happy with my profs, though it is odd to have all male professors, don’t think it has ever happened to me before.

I had to drive myself to class this week since Dan was home waiting for the contractors and such. The parking lot I have is one of the closest there is for student parking. It takes 25 to 30 minutes for me to walk from my parking lot to the student union. Thank goodness for the north campus bus even if it does run every 30 minutes. The campus is huge I haven’t gotten lost yet and feel pretty confident about finding my way around to my 4 classes this semester.

I am glad to report my laptop works in all 4 of my classrooms, no need to ask me how I know this :) .

Oh so my MicroEconomics class requires use of a computer program, not a big deal. Except it is packaged with the new books, well the bookstore had run out of new books so I bought used, and the software costs 60$ alone. Ouch ick blegh. Plus it is only useable for the one semester, so it is $60 one semester use fee. Which sucks, so I’m going to check the other bookstore and see if they have any new copies of my economics book so I can return the used copy I bought.
