i've just returned from my first class at my first day back in school. it is fucking freezing outside. its really the only thing dampening my spirits. i spilled a bit of coffee on my coat as i was walking back to my car, and it didnt even dribble down the front of me, it froze where it fell, right there on my coat. its the coldest its been here in at least 5 years, they say. i guess we were getting by easy. none of us here are too terribly equipped for moving about in this weather. i usually won't leave the house if its under 35 degrees, let alone snowing. oh well, i think im already getting used to it.
in my first class, intro to business, we did the stupid thing that you always have to do at school where you get into groups and talk about yourselves and get up and say something about someone in your group to the class and its just so lame lame lame lame lame. i am always so lame at those things, as are most people. but for the first time ever in my life, i wasn't in the homely shy girl group. it was quite bizarre. i started over toward them when the instructor said to get into groups, but the kids around me turned their desks toward me and i was shocked! wow. i still feel like a homely shy girl though. i feel like i've been removed from my people. this might take a little getting used to.
