Well, I guess technically it’s not; it’s the day of. It’s nearing 3am and I am unable to fall asleep. I tried thinking of nothing… thinking of work… thinking of the dream house… all to no avail. So I came out to the living room and played some Counter-Strike: Source in the hopes that maybe violence would somehow rid of my nerves. Killing computerized terrorists would do that, right? *sigh* So here I sit, still unable to get my mind off of what’s to come. Mortal Kombat is on TBS: SWEET! J
So what’s my deal? Why be nervous? I’ve done this before, so why isn’t it easier? A part of me wonders who else out there is going through the same thing. Anyone? Maybe I’ll ask some people tomorrow.
I’ve got 3 on-campus classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays: Intro. to Mass Media Comm from 12 – 1:40, Japanese (of course) from 4-5:40 and Intro. to Interpersonal Comm. from 6 - 9:30 (only on Tuesdays). I also have an online class: Intro. to the Teacher’s Education Program. Upon reading over the syllabi for two of the classes, a part of me wonders if they are going to be as difficult as they seem. Are the professors going to be cool or are they going to suck? So far, the professors have been outstanding! Here’s hoping that trend continues…
It’s the unknown that gets to me. I guess after tomorrow things will be easier…
Here’s hoping. The final battle of Mortal Kombat is about to start. Then it’s off to bed for me.
I’ll keep ya’ll posted…

Hey Stranger (well, actually I'm the stranger, lol). I'm Pam , the online student from last semester. How've ya been? Welcome to another semester at UIS. I feel you on the issue of being nervous even though you've 'been there' before. I think it'll always be that twinge of first-day jitters of the unknown when beginning a new semester. There are fresh 'faces' of new classmates and professors to meet and greet. It's fun, yet nerve-wrecking all at the same time. I get that way, too until I start to get a feel of the classroom dynamic between the students and the professor.
Looks like you've got a pretty interesting schedule that'll surely keep ya busy. Have fun this semester and I wish you peace and blessings in your classes. :)

HEY PAT!!! :D I was wonderin' where you've been. *sniffle*
Hooray for updated profiles! AND PICTURES! :)
I'd love to tell you more about the life of the dispatcher. So far, there hasn't been very much super exciting stuff... but I'm anxiously awaiting that day.
How has your summer been? What have you been up to lately?
Thanks for comin' back to my blog and keeping in touch!

LOL...so glad you remembered me. My summer was cool (ok, it was hot but you know what I mean). I didn't do as much as I wanted to do because of higher gas prices this year, but it was all good, though. My daughter, partner, and I did get the opportunity to still go on our yearly vacation into the city despite everything going up. I'm glad to be back in school, but now it's getting pretty busy for the second week.
Let's keep in touch since I have a Blogger profile now. Maybe you can keep me updated on campus life since I'm an online student and of course, I'll keep you updated on my online class status.
Oh, and I'm sure you'll experience that day when you get to see the excitement on the job.
Holla!!!
