First day of classes (part I)

I had my first class today, at 2:00. It was nice to have the morning off, I saw Heather before her class at 9:30 and got some errands and food shopping done with her when she got out.

My class was 3D III (thats 3d semester 3, of four required) with Karen, who I had last year. The class was pretty much what was to be expected, introductions and course description and syllabus and some first-day-back exercises. At Pratt that means cutting shapes out of chip board, not playing the name game and describing ourselves. I think this class is going to be better than last year because we're going to be developing abstract compositions into products (mostly furniture) to present to the people Karen works with at Knoll, which should be a really awesome experience.

There's also a girl in my class, Rachel, who's a transfer student from Glasgow..... take that how you will. She's very nice and Yoon and I gave her our phone numbers incase she has questions, which I know I would appreciate if I were in a new school on a continent I'd never been to before (but I'm not, and I won't be. But if I were, I'd have someone already that I would know when I got there).

My second class, which would normally start in 10 minutes (at 5) was moved from 5-8 to 6-9 pm, and the teacher changed to my drawing teacher from last year (even though it's production methods) Cho, who was really awesome and I'm glad if it had to change from the one I chose, who I've heard is really good, it changed to a teacher I know I like.

I'll probably post again after my class (which now starts at 6, which I've decided is actually good because it gives me time to clean up from 3D and eat dinner) and after my floor meeting at 9. I just saw Derek, my RA, in the hallway and he said we're playing tug-o-war with the two sides of the hallway. Should be fun, I guess.
