Very productive day that was hitting on all cylinders right out the gate.

Got to the downtown Littleton light rail station right in time to get one of the last remaining parking spots. Hit up the Chase bank nearby to drop off the change necessary to up my bank account to exactly $1000.00 for a nice round number to start off September with. Got back to the station right as the d-line was rolling in. Did have a bit of a hiccup with a young lady pulling up way past the stop sign and blocking the cross walk where the CCD parking lot lets out on to Speer Blvd. Funny though that once I veered around in front of here that she acted like she wasn't the one in the wrong by yelling something at me before driving off. I had the JRE pumping through my headphones though so I didn't hear any of her negativity. Got to the office on time regardless, and was pleasantly surprised by a pretty quiet couple of hours that actually allowed me to get some studying in. Banged out some two chapters worth of psych statistics reading and notes before taking off for some gen. chem. II supplemental instruction with Khan who really helped solidify the concepts of how the intermolecular forces of a molecule shape its characteristics in terms of viscosity, boiling point, vapor pressure, etc. Even got to talk a bit of Muay Thai shop with him, and how I hope to be able to get something going on campus as far as it goes.

After SI it was class time. Bio 3611 is still a bit of a question mark to me since I missed the first two lectures, but today was the first day that I was able to follow along fairly well. Hopefully catching up on all of the reading this weekend will further that along. Psych statistics lecture was a so so class. Aaron is a good dude and does a good job of making the class as lively as he can, but there isn't a whole lot you can do with today's subject matter. Got to tell it like it is that I'm not all that happy with his not letting us pick who we want to work with for the course's major research project, and instead leave it to sheer randomness. Who knows though. Maybe it will turn out for the better. Either way I got to do my best at this point to just go with the flow. Going to have to do a bit of that with making up my incomplete work in Dr. Bruehl's honors gen. chem. I lab as well. Hopefully with it being my unofficial 19th credit hour for this semester does prove to be the straw that breaks the camel's back. I feel good about it, but leery that if I don't stay on top of my game that the whole thing could nose dive.

With that being said... I've got to get to bed if I'm going to keep this ship on course tomorrow, and at least get 6 hours of sleep. Should have been there over an hour ago. I imagine this will prove to be quite the reoccurring theme throughout my blogging about this semester. Nonetheless...

LL&P.
