Yesterday we had our last day of orientation. They had a booth fair up on the track in the gym where all the different clubs and people were set up and talking to us. Groups like Students Union, the Security Office, the Health Center, etc. That was neat, got a ton of free pens! After the booth fair, all new students went to their "Main Hall" (mine is Markham Hall) to have an orientation specific to their major. The Management Faculty got together and we had a guest speaker, then we did a scavenger hunt for information around the faculty. There was also a faculty/student soccer game. I also won a T-shirt and sweater, both with Faculty of Management on them. After that, Daryl (one of my fellow Rookie-campers and a student in the Faculty of Management) went to Safeway to pick up some fresh fruit and teas because my floor is planning a tea party in the coming weeks.
So today was first day of classes and it went really well. My first class was French 1100 and I had to take a placement test just to make sure I was in the right class (still don't have the results back but oh well) so I was in there for maybe 20 minutes. I was also supposed to have a French Lab class but since it was the first day all Labs were cancelled, which also cancelled out my Economics Lab, woohoo! Last class of the day was Religious Studies and so far that looks to be my favorite class, although it may be too early to tell. After supper, my room-mate, some friends and I all went to the gym to get in a work out. I jogged on the treadmill for an hour straight and it sounds lame but I'm pretty proud of myself. If my legs at least aren't in shape by the end of the year something is seriously wrong because there's something like 295 stairs from my rez to my religious studies and geography classes. And thats stairs alone, not steps. But that math is for another night!
