Classes for Day 2

Okay! Hello Again--

Happy Wednesday (again)!

First up this morning we had Natural Hazards *by we, I mean me... and now I feel slightly mental*. My prof for that class is fantastic, I adore her. We didn't talk about a whole lot because it was the first day and we went through the syllabus, course info, and introductions. I'm looking forward to studying the physical processes behind natural disasters as well as the geography of them-- looking at case studies of specific demographics most affected and so on..

Second was Shakespeare!!! All the world is certainly a stage for this professor. He is my adviser, though I had never met him until today. He is quite the funny guy-- reminded me much so of David Tenant the actor from Dr. Who whom is now a prominent stage actor-- featured in many Shakespeare productions now that his role as the Doctor is finished. He switched from his regular accent into British, had a few outbursts to keep our attention and was rather entertaining to listen to. I'm looking forward to more time with him as my professor and to hear his take on Shakespeare as we read his works.

Finally I had the Art of the Memoir. Quite a small class. Last semester the smallest class I had was 11. This class has 4 students. Potentially a 5th, but that is all. I can tell we will all be very close knit as a writing community, and it's going to be interesting. I also really enjoy this professor--  she's down to earth, much like a member of the class as opposed to our lecturer. I'm excited to get started on my first Creative Nonfiction piece for Monday.

Tonight... tonight. I have to get working on homework, I have plans with a friend, and I have to somehow manage to stay awake. Getting back into the swing of classes is rather exhausting.. and I could probably fall asleep right now.. no problem.

Always,
H.Eilene
