This Is College

Yay! I made it through my first day of classes for this term. Actually that's not very hard. All you have to do is show up and listen to how hard the rest of the term is going to be. Actually that is kind of hard cause it can be rather depressing. You come to realize very quickly that you are going to have absolutly no life what-so-ever for the next four months. woo hoo. 8>q Oh well. I wanted to have some responsibility after that long break. Now I have it.
My books didn't cost very much this term. $170, oh yeah. There's one guy in my hall who only had to purchase one book for the term. It cost him like $50. But hey, I'm not complaining. Some people drop as much as $600+, maybe even up to around a grand on books alone. Of course you can always sell the books back at the end of the term. But they only sell for practically pennies. That's business for you. Oh well, the point is this term I came out pretty good.
Tomorrow I have three classes, but the teacher is gone for two of them. I think I heard that a student was going to run one of them regardless, and I'll show up for the other until I know for sure that nothing is going to happen.
Our band and choir are going on tour in February. We'll be gone from the 7th through the 11th. It should be interesting. We are going to have about two performances a day. One performance at a school in the morning, and one at a church in the evening every single day. I've been told that it's not that hard. Hopefully my lips agree. Playing trumpet two performances a day is kind of rough. But it shouldn't be anything compared to the Saturday when we had two performances of both the concert band and Handle's Messiah. That was really rough, but I managed to do a decent job. Anyway, I'll be skipping school for a week, so that's kind of cool. Though that means I'll have a lot of catchup work to turn in the day I get back.
Well, I got to catch some shut-eye. Laters.
