I'm anxious that my FA refund hasn't come in yet, so no textbooks for me yet. That's something I need to take care of this week.
As for school, schedule is great, classes are usually good. Only "mixed bag" is Math, because Math has been the bane of my existence since I learned that there was more complicated stuff than 2 +2.
I'm embellishing, of course, but there's always been this wall I've run up to time and time again when it concerns Math. Hopefully I'll get better with a textbook and a few more lectures underneath my belt.
Political Science and US History are both pretty fascination. I'm not a major History or Politics buff, but they're ran by two good teachers that make lectures interesting.
Philosophy is, by far, one of the most intriguing classes I've ever been a part of. It's only a week into the semester, but I feel like an entire new world of thinking will be opened up by the time I'm through. Since the class is new and the classroom keeps on changing, most of the time all we do is have giant group debates, really fascinating stuff.
Overall, college is a very different, but by no means scary experience. It's actually a lot like I thought it'd be...it's a step up, but it's not this huge thing. I'm pretty confident in my abilities right now and look forward to seeing how the rest of the semester pans out.

It's alright. I've only been in college for one semester besides this one. But I'm a lot more relaxed this semester, 'cause I'm used to it by now.
Photo class: Not bad, very boring when we're not working, as we'll be lectured for over an hour on how a camera works.
English; It's only been two classes, and we've already had a test and an essay. This shit's gonna be tough.
Psychology: Won't start this class til' February, but I'll ace this crapno problem.
Criminology: I've had a few criminal justice courses already, this being the third. It's going alright. Only once a week, and it's at like 7pm.
Yup...It's pretty tight.

School's going great. My favorite class was my Forensics class that just ended. My least favorite is Math because my teacher is 70 years old and extremely boring. We even had another teacher sit in on the class and she was literally falling asleep.
I got a major picked out for college which is Criminal Investigations/Criminal Justice and I hope to get into SUNY Canton. They have the best program for what I'm looking for.

School's Kicking ass this year!!
Although I wish it would go slower. It's my junior year of high school, and it's going by so fast. I just won 1st place in the local competition for SkillsUSA and now I'm going to District's Competition. I go to a vocational school you see. We're learning Web Design, Advanced 3D Animation and Advanced Video Editing this year.
Basically I love school this year, which has never happened before. But unfortunately I only have one year after this before college.

Yeah, my school introduced a forensics class last year. It's really cool and covers everything from blood to hair to fingerprints. For the final, we had a crime scene set up complete with blood, a body, everything. |

I took a forensic science course last year. The content was pretty interesting. For a third of the semester every class we had a guest speaker who specialized in a different field of forensics. They would talk about cases they were involved in and such.

Good. The dances are fun, I look forward to them. Grades could've been better first semester, but I'm stepping up this semester.
