So, I've started classes for fall 2008, and after a little more than a week, I think I can give a general overview, followed by more in depth analysis of my first impressions regarding my instructors.
I am taking a total of 5 classes, or 16 credits. They are all in the linguistics or Teaching English as a second language program.
All of my classes on Tuesday and Thursdays (4 of them) are in Folwell hall, in fact I have two classes in the same classroom with a mere 15 minutes of break in between.
On MWF, I work until 1, then go to a class at about 1:25 in Rapson hall, the architecture building, which is about a block from Folwell.
I have 2 repeat professors I've had before, and many familiar students. This is not surprising as I've mentioned before that Linguistics is a rather small program at the U of M.
A major change to my daily life is that I get done with all obligations at 3 or 3:45, meaning that I can be home by 4 or 4:30 if I simply take the bus home. This gives me more time to do class readings at a relaxed pace.
News for me:
1. I'm sort of interviewing for a 2nd job today, something about promoting the Minneapolis city Wireless network.
2. The game/toy Spore came out on Sunday, and I have plans to buy it sooner than later.
3. I plan to continue my 'about 8 posts a month' strategy with this blog, so expect something like bi-weekly updates.
