school: day one

yes so 'twas first day of school for moi. jason woke for a run at 6+ and i woke around 730. our first lesson was gonna be at 130pm. why did we wake so early? we had wanted to get advice on our course subjects with the professors and whatnot. so we walked to school. anybody can enlighten me if it's actually appropriate to refer to the university as "school" here? jason had a teensy bit of headway into what he could choose for his subjects. and he basically found out what i had to do as "compulsory" he could choose to do... which mostly he did. hahaha... but i didn't have a clue. the people i wanted to look for weren't available or not around. so we sat down in the "lobby" area to login to the intranet with our laptops and clicked around. i sent an email, and jason did his checking of the subjects to register the tutorials/lab lessons there online. and it drizzled abit. and it cleared. we walked home before the sky decided to pee somemore...

i had the urge to have instant noodles so i cooked mine, while jason made his linguine. and we hung around till 1+ and headed off in the car. it drizzled but cleared again! grrr... the parking was horrendous! we had to queue to enter the "temp parking" and drive up n down for a parking lot. we were kinda 5mins late i guess... but when we were seated there were still quite some ppl coming in. the professor talked about what to expect for the subject and halfway thru i already had the urge to doze off. XD but i roughed it out and that was it for today. jason had to talk to the fella after the lecture and we left the campus.

next stop was neighborhood shops. there was a mama shop. it's under the "Independent Grocers of Australia" aptly named IGA. if they're independent, why are they in a group? i know i'm stupid to ask this so shoot away... then they have a butcher shop! so cool! we bought some meat and we headed home.

so i had to map out my timetable and get organised. i'm having consecutive classes... lectures before/after labs/tutorials right away, meaning i have 10mins to go between buildings before the lesson starts! gee... and the fact is the person i was looking for today was the course coordinator. apparently she's not around. mondays are her "research days" which means she's not available either. so i sent her an email. of which it's 11.30pm now and she's not replied yet. i'll check again next morning.

oh and i left my original tp transcripts at home.
