Monday: The First Day of School!! :)

I've never looked forward to the start of school, and college is no exception.  Despite the depressing thoughts school brings, today went well.  I dreamt that I missed my first class by an hour.  Fortunately, that never happened and I awoke with plenty of time to have breakfast.  My first class (Western Civilization) began at 8 a.m. and followed by U.S. History at 9:10.  The good thing about the first day of class is that the professors ask you to introduce yourself and explain the syllabus.  After the first 2 classes was chapel.  Since it was the beginning of the school year all the professors dressed in their robes and offered a message on convocation and prayed for all the students.  At 11:30, it was time for logic followed by lunch at 12:45.  I love my schedule because by 12:30 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, all my classes are over.  After class, I decided to study outside.  It was a gorgeous day with temperatures in the 80s and full sun.  After dinner I had a class in Research & Writing at 6 p.m.  By the time class was over I decided to take a jog around the lake.  I kicked off my shoes and ran barefoot around the lake for 3 laps.  It felt so liberating to feel the cool grass beneath my feet, and the wind rushing into my face.  :)

Here is where I sat for the afternoon.  The sunset is just gorgeous.  

Then when they began to mow grass I began to study my logic beneath the acorn tree until the sun set.  

School has officially begun.  :(  However, it won't be so bad as long as I can study outside. :)
