so far so lo


A new beginning for me and everything is so different.

In Highschool, everything is so laid back that assignments do not require as much atention because teachers care and will do what they can to help. In college, teachers do not care, your on your own, and you handle what you have to do. No reminders no nothing. There isn't even the luxury of friends who share the same class with you anymore. Why? because not everyone has the same schodule. Some take morning classes others take afternoon or nights. Some only take classes on Mondays wednesdays fridays and others only on tuesdays or thursdays! I take classes everyday and have a 3hour break between two of my classses and that is where i am right now.

I met alot of people and they are quite nice, except we can not get to know each other because we all have an agenda, college is not an everyday thing anymore that everyone goes throgh, its a path to succeeding in your career. A path only you can take. Dont expect help from others and dont get in their way. People have things to do and places to see. Different classes or majors. Sometimes i see my friends from highschool and want to say hi but what if they are late to something and i do say hi, they may feel obligated to talk and i might get uncomfortable for them because they want to be friendly but they have things to do.

But do not get me wrong, i really like college. Unlike highschool, everyone tried to get into sdsu. Unlike the partiers or druggies or smokers who give up at life, people in sdsu are passed that, sure they still do drugs and smoke but they give priority to school.

Usually during my breaks i am either :catching up on homework, sleeping in the library, or in the computer lab. Classes are getting a little more tough so im glad i have this break time, time for myself and school. It also means that i do not have to stay up at night studying or writing an essay unless it was for my first class. The library is quite convenient, no disturbances excluding people whispering on their phone to tell their colleagues where they are. everyone is here for the same reasons. I can not do my homeork at home so i stay until its done at sdsu.


My classes are pretty spread.


My favorite are my theatre and tfm classes. They are all my kind of people. Right now we are going to work in groups and try to explain a certain problem by acting it out except in geibberish. My group has 1 girl all guys and 1 black guy and me.

our situation/problem was preparing for battle which to me was pretty vague. All i could think of was the rocky theme and "LETS GET DOWN TO BUSINESS TO DEFEAT THE HANS!"

but it was weird. As we were sharing our ideas, people kept competing for the higher voice or control in a polite way so it was understandable but very noticable. Some thought of pretty clever ideas but it was sooooooo weird. For me really cause i usually take control cause my kind of crowd is either too shy to speak up, or just dont care and depend on me. Now everyone is into it! SO COOL! but i kinda doubt our group is going to do so great. They seem to have the mindsets of doing what they are suppose to do, and limit themselves. Why? maybe because they have other classes to worry about, or because thats really what they are made of. I really dont know ima just flow with it for a while.

My tfm class is every monday so i get home around 7/8! =O i know. either that or get home at 10pm =[. But its so cool! basically i watch movies and talk about the history of film which i am really intertested in.

i dont want to talk about my classes anymore haha. But i sure wish i lived on campus. I know it would be so much easier actually building relationships with people but its all good i understand the $$ situation.

i have so much to write but ima stop.
