First day

So, I've had two days of classes now. Yesterday was my first day of Macro Economics, which I'm looking forward to. The teacher said that we would all have to get a subscription to the Wall Street Journal though. Not that I'm opposed to that though, mind you, because I've been looking for an excuse to get one for a while after all. The class was interesting, with a lot of talking and debate. One student in particular lead a bit of the discussion, and I was kinda sad that I wasn't able to put in my two cents before we moved on, but that's okay. The class seems as though it will continue to be very discussion oriented, and that's what I crave.

Today was my first day of Intro to Theatre. I had to buy 130 dollars of books for it, but that's okay. The professor seems to have the "only class" syndrome though. You know, when they believe that they are the only class that is important, and give you hours and hours and hours of work to do outside of the class. Most of it seems okay, but gosh, it sure is a lot of papers for a introductory class. The worst part is that I have to have my topic chosen for my research paper chosen by next class, chosen off a list of names of directors and actors that I have no clue who they are. So, that's going to be interesting. The best part about the class though is that it is forcing me to go to four plays. I'm a fan of plays, so that's not a bad time, I just never go. But now, I have no excuse not to, and I can even set them up as dates with the ladies. So, do any of you lady-ish folks want to go to a play with me?

Tomorrow marks my first training shift for overnight. I have to be at work at ten (after getting out of class at nine fourty-five) and I will work till three in the morning. So, it's not a full overnight yet, but it will come. Yesterday marked my last day of service though, because I even convinced my manager to put me on shakes today.
