Today turned out better than I thought it would.
In spite of the weather I made it to campus on time. I first stopped in to have a chat with the campus Parking Gods to see if I could add a new car to my account. It so happened that the vehicle had already been added, which saved me the trouble of having to remember silly things such as the make and model and number of doors (I only use one, so why should I pay attention to the other three?). I then went off to my extra help session with the Chemistry professor, and not only was he very kind to me, and not only did he have the courtesy to laugh at all of my jokes, but he managed to answer all of my questions in less than a half an hour.
I arrived in class only to realize that I had dragged along three very large books and plenty of pens, but no paper. I found a few sheets of scrap paper, and by some stroke of luck I was able to make them last for two class periods. Calculus was mildly confusing, and I saw many undergraduates rest their heads on the desks in frustration, but I had a lot of questions answered after class.
I am now in the middle of an attempt to select classes for next semester. This is proving to be more than cumbersome, as I would like to have all of my classes and labs on the same three days of the week-and it does not seem like I will be able to. I do not know what time labs take place, and I do not know when physics recitation-whatever the devil that is-take place. Luckily, I was able to make an appointment with my advisor for this Wednesday. Perhaps this will straighten things up a bit.
*Sigh.* I am very overly-stressed. I am not sure what I will do if it is impossible to have all of my courses when I need them- I certainly cannot drive to Burlington five days a week.
