Oh Time How You Escape Me.

Wow...I know it's been a while. Things got a little crazy on me and I've neglected the things that I've considered not as important. So here's an update:

I've changed my major to communication studies.

Business law just didn't cut it for me. I just wasn't going to have another crazy professor like her. I have new professors that I like so much better. Although, I'm still kinda skeptical about one of them. He like to ask us why a lot. "Why do you think that is?" "Do you agree? Why?" And sometimes he just sits there staring at us until we answer. I do see what he's getting at, but sometimes I wonder if he just wants to argue with us. Someone gives him an answer and it seems like they are always on the defense. Sometimes it's a little too stressful because I don't know why I believe what I believe, it's just what I believe! But it's ok because anything is better than crunching numbers or learning about laws that don't really make sense.

And so now I am currently waiting as patiently as possible for the hint of spring to arrive. The heating bill has gotten to high, all my long sleeve shirts are dirty, and we have been running out of hot water from the many hot showers/baths us roomies have been constantly taking. I've decided there is nothing good about winter, except for that picture perfect scenery that is just outside my window. But the moment I step foot out of my door, the frosted trees and the snowy ground have lost their perfectness in my eyes and the cold air seems to taunt me. I just want my sunshine back. I'm tired of waking up to yet another cold frosty morning. Oh winter, how you trouble me so.

Thanks for updating! I like reading this.
Igor is not the only teacher who acts like that, but luckily, there aren't more than one or two others that will do that to you.
I hated it when I was in classes like that, but the important thing to realize is that there is no merit in avoiding argument. In the end, we're all in the same boat, trying to find the truth. These classes will end up helping you develop necessary dialectical skills and whatnot. Let me know anytime you might need help!

yeah! Communications Major! It is perfectly YOU! Here is your challenge.....learn how to "communicate" with your favorite professor. Try this.....become the reporter....answer the question with a question. Inquire, be curious, it's all good.

And I soooo know what you mean by the winter months. I was so excited yesterday when I noticed that it was light longer in the day. Yeah for Spring!

If it's gonna stay winter here, it might as well snow again. That way I can actually get some good sledding in!

Good luck with your class, missy. I'm sure you'll do just fine. :)
