i am getting to grips with the classes and am reaching a sort of understanding as to which teachers want what out of us as students. all except my microanatomy class. he has SO MUCH info to give us he kind of tends to go off on tangents, then refocuses and says "thats a detail you dont need to worry about." huh. well, which detail of the last 20 minutes speech was the one i don't need to worry about? i am gonna hit the studdy session tomorrow and see where i am and where i should be for the class from the TA. hopefully that will help settle my mind a bit. other than that things are going swimmingly.

i even dared to try and drive a left-hand shift manual car. i did get it to actually move, but between it's not having a floor under the driver's seat and the engine needing to "warm up" in a tropical rainforest i gave it a pass. another one will come my way eventually, maybe even one with an automatic transmission! i think remembering to drive on the right hand side will be enough to conquer without having to worry that my gimpy left hand hasnt got the right muscle memory.
