Well, I'm officially done with my first quarter at the UofC. Turned in my paper today about ten minutes before it was due... hopefully it'll pass the scrutiny of my teacher and all. I'm not too horribly worried about it, I thought it was pretty good. Passable, at the least. Now I just have to get used to being home again. I think I'll feel better once I see my friends again. Right now, I just feel sort of... weird. Mostly because I want to go back to Chicago, because it's warmer there. I want my darned blasted broken radiator back, because my house is freezing and there's nothing I can do about it! I can't turn up the heat, because it would bother my dad. It feels like it's about 50 in here. Brrr. At least I could curl up in the papasan next to the radiator and... well, I'll have plenty of time to enjoy it winter quarter, if I want. I'm definitely not going to be able to take the drama class I wanted next quarter, at least not the official by registering way. I think I still might try to pink slip my way in. I just registered for Core Bio this morning, which might be fun. I kind of liked Bio in high school, afterall. Plus it gets me out of two track practices a week, both of them those dreaded Wednesday and Friday practices, woohoo! I also miss my internet connection. Oh how I will miss it this winter. Darn dialup. I gues it's not that bad, it's just the convenience of the wireless and such. I was sitting on my bed this morning finishing up my paper, and I wanted to look something up so I switched on the wireless card and then realized.. drat, no wireless network in my house. I'm sort of contemplating trying out the cafe down the street to see how quick their wireless connection is. If worse comes to worse, I bet I could figure out how to hack into the wireless network at the library downtown... they had to put it in because they, hehehe, couldn't get things wired properly.
Bah! I either want to go back to Chicago, or have all my friends home! I also want a warm house! With a Christmas tree! And people in it! Darnit, I've been home for a day and already I've been in charge of dinner twice. They just put me right back to work. Hopefully the movie theatre will do the same. I need money, darnit!
Well, I've got to go pick up my sister in a bit (more driving, yay!). I think I'll go find some less-scrubby clothes to wear, so I don't disturb anyone at my good old high school. I guess at some point this week, I am expected to attend their speech class, too. Hmmm... Ought to be interesting, non? Hopefully I won't be compelled into any sort of philosophical argument, because I fear my brief experience with UofC education has left me a bit more prone to that. And while I can't argue terribly well against my peers, I bet I could take on anyone at my high school (teachers included). Mwahahahaha!
