Update!
BTW, there will be a LOT of pictures posted this weekend...including ice cream social, tomorrow, tonight, dorm room(!) randomness, sprinkles, Milliken study sessions, hug day, "!", and more.........
Thoughtage
Well, as I sit (sorta lay...whatever) here in Milliken before my next class (starting in 50 minutes) I can't help but to think...so I'm blogging!
First, let's get some things straight, I don't really want to be a bio major....it just doesn't feel right to me. And true, I won't be "behind" but I wouldn't be as ahead as I could (bio major declare-ees were provided the chance to start working on the requirements by taking a higher bio class than Intro to Animal Bio. Moreover, I really do like psychology and I hear that sociology goes right along with it....but before I "officially" declare I will be taking some more classes to bet on my way so don't worry, they really try to make sure that you don't waste too much time. Also, the fact that it is a liberal arts education here at WoCo means that we automatically try a lot of things...so don't worry, I have my bases covered :D
Second, the school blog will be starting soon...I have all the paperwork turned in and today I will be taking a picture which will be the temporary picture (until they can get a professional photographer) for the blog. Then it is just a password, some formatting, and some pictures/typing until I have it ready to go. When that happens, I will be linking this page to that (via a side bar hyperlink) so, just stay tuned.
Third, the weekend! WOW, it feels like only yesterday I was dragging through Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and wishing that the weekend would just come already....and now I feel like it almost came too soon....but I do have 2 more classes to attend and a Humanities paper to turn in before today's academic day is over (plus some meetings I have to go to to become an Ambassador (tour guide). YAY!
So, the plans for the weekend....hmmmmm
Well, Friday, I plan on seeing American Grafitti here on campus, do a movie night (maybe) of Life is Beautiful (depending) maybe going to the library to see if they have some interesting DVDs to check out. And have Chris stay over because he hates his roomie (poor guy!). Saturday includes the Hub-bub junk sale (see hub-bub.com ) and maybe getting a few things....maybe not, depending then on to Venus Pie for lunch (if we have time) and then to the Jason Mraz show at Converse.
And probably some more randomness....maybe a trip to Barnes & Noble to get some more things for the wall....hmmmm....Sunday will include homework, some random dance parties, a Rubi marathon, and some Telemundiales being shown in my room.....and food....and sleep....lots of both of those!
Hopefully, this weekend will be fun (my plans excite me but who know what will end up occurring!) but I know that no matter what....I have 1984 to read and some homemade cookies to look foreword to from Velma
Oh, btw, I got a call back for Wofford on Call which means I could have a REAL job!!!! I know right!? But all in all, I'm looking foreword to my interview...it's supposed to be casual, but I think I'm going to be professional casual because I really want it....but only time will tell.
Oops, btw, Wofford on Call is the group of students who call the Alum for money...YAY telemarketing (Troy, watch out!) And what is great is that it is set your own hours (with a min each week) and there are a TON of bonuses for nightly goals, weekly goals, semesterly goals, top seller, ect. I think that this could be fun and helpful to the college....that plus my blogging and the Ambassadors, Wofford is starting to become the school of Tomas..............just wait!

Bio
So, today we had our first biology lab today. And it made me want to become a bio major....grrrrr this would:
1. Put me behind because I'm not taking the classes I should be for a bio major.
2. Interfere with my current plans of being a psychology/sociology double major with a philosophy minor.
GRRRR...idk....maybe I could minor in bio....or I could jst let go....yea, I think I'm gonna do that

Today
Well...class.....pretty much that's it, oh and a movie presentation here at WoCo that's free, I think it's some type of an indie film...or something like that.....kewl! Update! It is actually a Cannes Film Festival winner called Days of Glory in the US...aka Indigenes, apparently it takes place in France...idk if that means that it is going to be in French or what but I LOVE subtitled movies so....YAY! And I will add a review n such afterwards, depending on the amount of time I have left afterwards including homework.
Bio. toady went VERY slow and we went VERY fast and it was annoying...but I guess we had to move sometime! LOL
Philo. today went VERY fast YAY (thanks Adam!)
Esp. was a TON of speaking which is still odd since in H.S. we didn't do too much of that...but I guess I have to move along and progress at some point....whatever! LOL

Weekend Times
The Beacon is an...experience, one that I don't know if I want to relive again, but will do so if it comes to that. Barnes & Noble dancing in the parking lot is FUN! Southern malls are great! Movie nights that end up in randomness and people falling asleep randomly. The sleeping in until noon and then waking up and kicking people out of my room LOL! The randomness goes on! Then comes the making of the T-Shirts for Free Hug Day (pics to come) and the Game...where I was the "!" YAY! (again, pics to come). WOW...this weekend was great, it was an AMAZING time and a GREAT way to end the first actual week of college....WOW....now I'm going to reflect....off-line....:D
The Week In Review
So...the first week.
Well, there were the three papers that were annoying. There were the massive amounts of scariness that came when Red Chic came out with her class expectations and such which pretty much scared the living daylights out of me...and the rest of the class. Then it goes to Beast who more or less is ADD and has the inflection of a dying stump. Ok, maybe that was a little harsh but EVERYONE in that class falls asleep in the class...luckily Adam gave me the advice of spurring a conversation about the material, he said that it kept him awake in class, it made the class go quicker, and it made Beast like him more. Jean is a nice teacher but after the first two days, she took it VERY fast and made it scary...but whatever. Spreckle is ok...but she is VERY harsh when it comes to pronunciation....oh well tho. I think that I've done ok with it so far. And then there is Mama, she is GREAT she is soooooo happy and she LOVES us....it is soooo nice. She is a breath of fresh air...and I love it.
Now it comes to the social life. It has been GREAT! I have had some GREAT times with GREAT peoples. I love it. They TOTALLY get me! They know EXACTLY what to say (usually) and they know when to come and when to go (usually). I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!
