First Class
Tuesday. 6.15.04 11:26 am
Just got back from my first class this morning. Multivariable calculus at 8 am M-F. What was I thinking? `` The professor comes in, puts his stuff down, and looks over at the clock which says 8:00. He then shakes his head and says, "Damn." Everyone started laughing. At least I'm not the only one that doesn't like to get up so early. Set the class off on a light note. His name is Ismar Volic and he has some kind of accent but I can't place it. Kind of a cross between an Arabic and an Italian accent if that makes sense. Its not too strong so you can understand his well, which is good because I worried by looking at his name. Its just enough of an accent to make it interesting to hear him talk. The way he says certain words, it's cool. He passed out an attendance sheet to sign and while it was going around he was like "I don't know what possessed you people to take a math course during the summer. I mean, I get paid to be here, you are paying to be here. Doesn't make sense to me." Everyone got a good laugh out of that. The class being 2 hours and 15 long wasn't bad at all since he takes two 10 minute breaks. So the whole thing ends up being three 45 minute or so sections. But we move *really* fast. Just today we did 3 sections in the book and that was including the 20 minutes at the start of class he wasn't teaching to go over the syllabus. So material is going quick. Must do the homework to. There's like 30 or so problems assigned after every class period and they're all due at the end of the week. So.. slack off on homework for the week and we're stuck with doing 150+ problems Thursday at midnight. Not a situation I want to be in. `` I shalt not procrastinate on homework. That would be murder.

I also start my part time job today. I'll be working at the help desk here at UVA providing tech support. I really hope it goes well, I'm kind of not looking forward to it. *crosses my fingers*

Later. *kiss kiss*
