Stuff to say before the first day of classes and first day of classes

Thought I would list some stuff without really describing them.

College is obviously new to everybody, so it is really cool how everybody is open to see if friendships will work or not.  I don't know how constricted that will get in the next few weeks, but for now you can walk up to anybody and they will not brush you aside.  Still, the majority of people still are hanging out with the friends they have.  When classes and clubs start, everything will change.

This openness means you feel a certain connection.  Like for example, the people on my floor have a connection so feel more obligated to be friendly to each other.  Same is probably true with all the asians I've been hanging out with.  Probably will change later, but the sense of obligation is prevalent the first 3 days.


So this is stuff from the first day of classes.  Wow, I didn't realize how much work I'll be doing.  Only the first day and I have so much homework.  Japanese was a small class and we just went over basic greetings.  Econ was huge with 500 people and the professor just introduced stuff.  The same is true with the 250 person commerce class.  It is college, I should have expected this.  More classes tomorrow, so even more homework.  What fun...
