sagesariaDamn. The language lab is booked until 2. Oh well, at least I have laptop.
*sitting in student lounge watching some boys fuck around* I'm surrounded by frat boys already, and I'm not even in a four year school yet. *sweatdrop*
Seriously, does nobody on this campus fucking read? In the picnic area in front of the language lab, there were like...three signs; "No smoking beyond this point" "No smoking in this area" "NO FUCKING SMOKING" (I'm embellishing). And there were at least FOUR PEOPLE there smoking! FOUR PEOPLE! And then on my way back to the campus center, there was another sign, "No smoking beyond this point" and there was a girl standing in the area beyond the sign, blowing ash from her cigarette onto the sidewalk.
If you must put in the coffin nails, don't do it where other people can hear you, people! God.
*meanwhile moves to other side of lounge, away from the frat boys*
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person conscious in my Astronomy class too. Yesterday, I seemed to be the only person taking notes, or something close to the only one. I know for a fact that when the Professor asked a question about something we covered Monday, I was the only person to go "Ooh! *flip flip flip* *raises hand*" I think I was the only person with Monday's notes in front of me at all. *sigh* New school, same people, I guess.
Aaah, my battery is at 65% already! Hold out until 2, Baby! Come on!

In theory you have 4-5 hours on the battery, but carrying your power plug is a good idea.

Date: 2006-09-14 04:37 pm (UTC)Keep talking to the professors. The best advice I ever got was to make yourself known to all your professors. Ask questions, be interested, and be involved. Many professors grade on a curve or include class participation in their grades and if you participate they sometimes will bump you up a grade.
Does MC still have an attendance requirement? If it does, you are going to get a lot of people who are sleeping through class. They are showing up only because they have to. Some of them have already had the information before and may be behaving in a passive/agressive manner about the requirement to show up. They can make me show up but I don't have to participate. Some don't care and will not do well in the class.
It will be interesting to see how the class changes as the semester progresses. One of the differences between college and HS is that you can drop classes. Attendence falls as the semester progresses.
Anyway, go you for answering the question!

Yeah, Dell isn't noted for battery life, even when their batteries aren't catching fire.
