School Begins

Ah, another semester has begun. Bright and shiny faces show up early prepared to learn and soak up the knowledge our elders are enlightening us with. Little do the freshmen ("freshpersons" for you feminists) realize that nearly half will not finish one of the easiest semesters of your college career. Most will find freedom and use it to booze up or sleep in.

My 100 level history course is packed with post-high-school students. It will dwindle over the next two months and lose at least a quarter by mid-term. It looks like it will be a rather intense semester for me though. Arabic and Pre-Calculus seem dooming to my GPA. If I pull a 3.4 out of this semester, I won't gripe too much.
