A New Start

You don't write in a long time and look what happens, everything.

This past week has been very... eventful! :) Between drama with my ex boyfriend that went out of control and the start of classes, I have not had much time to even breathe. But overall it has been a pretty good week :)

Hmm what about the classes?

Well my MENG (Mechanical Engineering) classes are going pretty well. I had one realization that popped into my mind after my first class last Tuesday though... I have the math and science it takes to be an engineer but the hardware part is kind of missing. Welding/Materials lab, here I come! :) This should be interesting.

My Chemistry class is a joke right now. Not only does my professor get off track every 5 minutes, but we are also learning the same stuff that my THIRTEEN year old sister is learning in her EIGHTH grade chemistry class. How pathetic is that?? It will pick up soon, I'm sure of it!

Math= easy so far. Mrs. Brinker was an amazing teacher last year and I feel so blessed to have had her. I know all of the material so far in Calculus 2 so it makes it much easier to do the homework and prepare for the new material.

My history class is going well, too. The only problem is that my professor has a very strong Russian accent... We'll see how much I actually get out of her lectures. After 3 classes, I am now starting to understand her and am able to take notes while she is talking without missing anything. I am slowly getting there. Yay!! :)

And finally, English. Dr. G is amazing! :) She is going to make this English class so much fun. We have spent the past week writing the same paper, but honestly it has definitely helped me understand what my writing style is and what I need to work on.

Apart from school, not much has been going on. I did, however, get some amazing, colorful daisies in the mail from my amazing boyfriend, Caleb! :) Thank you so much. Surprising they are still alive even after a week.

 

See!! Aren't they pretty? :)

This past weekend I was able to go home to see my family and friends. I got to see some movies and spend some time with Caleb, which was great. It is nice to know that I get to go home this weekend for Labor Day weekend and spend some more time with my family, now that they don't have to be in Bernalillo :)

And finally, today was SWAPPING day! :) My old roommate moved out and one of my good friends from high school moved in. Now I no longer have to deal with jumping from random laughter and constant talking of things I don't really care about. Haha. She was really sweet but some things she did just sent me up the wall. I am so happy that Michaela moved in. It will be a great semester now! :)

Well that is all for now.

Goodnight all,

Ali :)
