That Dreadful "C" Word

Classes started today. Yay?

I get to attend such interesting lectures. With such fascinating titles. Like: State & Economy in Independent Ireland & Europe 1922-2000, which I had today. I nearly fell asleep in my chair. Perhaps I shouldn't sit in the very last row next time.
I hope tomorrow's classes will be better. "Communications, culture & identity in 20th century Ireland" & "Irish Film History" sound more promising, anyhow.
I'm sure you are all extremely jealous of my enthralling classes.

Also, I think it's slightly frightening that, despite all the classes I have to take, I want to take another one. Voluntarily adding another two hours onto an already busy day.
But, the course is Women & Society in Ireland 1750-1937...which does cover part of my thesis topic. So, really, it's justified. And my advisor said that I might be able to get out of the other seminar I have to take. We'll see.

But, really, even with that extra class, I would be sitting in classrooms no more than 15 hrs a week. Which I know I can handle. See -- I did learn something from college. :P

So, as it stands right now, I've 1 hr of class Mon, 6 hrs Tues, 4/5 hrs Wend, 1 hr Thurs & nothing Friday!
I think that's all of it. For now.

I'll be nice & busy this semester. I hope that this is a good thing, but (as the old saw goes,) "the jury's still out."

Also, it's getting rather cold in the evenings. I guess I'll have to dig out my scarf soon! :D
...& yes, I'm ridiculously excited about that.

It's the little things in life, after all, that make it all so interesting.
