let it be.

first day of winter term 08. i'd say it went pretty well. =) had four classes of my five, and all of em seem manageable enough. for now. i was actually bored in chemickstry. BORED! and i was enjoying being bored lol. such a change from the barrage of information that flew over my head last term, since i'm now in general chem as opposed to honors gen chem. my learning and memory professor was pretty weird, but funny random weird, which i don't mind in the least. gonna be a preetty interesting class i think. i already have quite a number of items on my "to do" list, and it's growing... but but but i can do this. yup.

so today when i was walking around campus, getting from place to place, i bumped into about 5 people i knew outside of class which is like a 500% increase, yay. =P and in between classes i've been making my way through 'kite runner' by khaled hosseini, which i've heard a lot about and finally managed to lay my hands on, since sean had it and lent it to me. been a really good read so far... welcome respite between classes. not that classes were very taxing today.

oh and it snowed on saturday! right here in eugene! i ran around the house squealing like a jakun (which i was and had the right to be) then ran out and stood in the snow for a bit. it was so cool to look up and see what looked like ais kacang shavings fall on you! hehe. i decided to go for evening mass that day, and walked to church in the snow... we sang a lot of christmas carols, so in some ways it felt more like christmas day than christmas day did. it didn't last long, but it was fun while it lasted.

things've been looking up. talking things out, and being able to talk things out does wonders. and to think it could've remained buried under a bunch of rocks...

there is still a light that shines on me
shine until tomorrow
let it be."

There were so many people on campus yesterday...normally I feel inclined to actually small talk with them, but not today. It was like..."HEY!...gotta go." It was fun, though, sounds like you had a good first day.
