Now that I've had one of each class that I'll be taking this spring semester, I thought I'd recap my first week (more like semi-week) of the spring semester. Long story short, I'm taking 3 classes, one of which looks like it's going to be - let's just say, a loooooong semester - and the other two which look like they'll be loads of fun.

Bet you can't guess which one looks like it's going to suck butt.

Studio, or 4.024, or 4.115:

This is the only class I'm taking this semester that's within my major (the first time this has happened since freshman year!). So far we have been given a mapping exercise, where we look at different aspects around the site given (such as traffic patterns, history, wind pollution, etc), but we haven't actually been given our project yet, so basically literally everyone is confused about what's going on.

So far, the professor has given all of us a pretty terrible first impression - she doesn't pay attention when we present our ideas to her, she talks over everyone, she goes on ridiculous tangents, and she's just rude. I really hope it'll get better as the semester goes along.

French II, or 21F.302:

It's French 2 and my professor is possibly the cutest person ever. We've had two snow days and she emailed us saying that she hopes we're staying warm, drinking hot chocolate, and watching French films. (I have been staying warm but I haven't been drinking hot cocoa or watching French films. I've been watching a ridiculous Korean reality TV show and reading Le Petit Prince and sleeping.)

Psychology of Gender and Race, or WGS.228, or 9.75:

Honestly, I took this class because I needed to fulfill my HASS-S requirement (I tried to do this once by taking 9.00, or Intro to Psychology, and I gave up on it because I hate memorizing) and because my friend strongly recommended it. But I've only had one class so far and it looks really good! I'm actually really excited about it, despite it having an exam to look forward to at the end of the semester....


Unfortunately, I can't really say much more about the classes because I've only had a couple sessions of each (or in the case of WGS.228, only one) because of the snow! Boston has been in major shut down and I haven't left the house at all, save for one trip to the grocery store today. And rehearsal later, I guess, for ADT.

Speaking of which, I'm super excited about it because I got into the dance I wanted to get into!!!

How has the snow been treating you? Are you in school? What classes are you taking and are you excited about them?
