My impressions of my life in university so far, there's both good and bad in here.
University life
Well, so far...university is like everything and nothing that I've expected. It is everything and nothing that I feared...so far at least...
Let's start; for starters, damn, I'm seriously kicking myself for not taking care of my shit sooner during the summer...all those sheets and forms and stupid ass questions that I could have asked during the summer...I had to take care of now, with all the lineups and short tempers. And holy Jeebus, the LINES!!! >.<
God...I don't remember the last time I saw so many lineups in the same small area...other than government buildings where they give out drivers licences and health cards that is...but oh man...the lineup to get into the registrar's office freaking winds around the outer edge of the meeting place. The lineup at the cafeteria for meals was pretty bad but it was almost as bad in high school so no worries there. But holy shit, the line at the bookstore on campus...god, that thing was almost literally 40 meters long. Holy geez, it doesn't look like I'll be getting my books anytime soon...
Classes...meh, they were pretty normal so far...it threw me for a loop when my Sociology class today had like freaking 500 people in in but whateva, you can get used to anything...
What else....hmm...it's strange running into familiar faces in a new setting you know? I've run into Cher, who I thought I'd never see again after two years ago...Charles was not a surprise, but Frank with him? That threw me for a loop. Run into Mike and Brenna which was cool...and of course, Gloria, my cousin who still finds it strange that I'm in the same school as her.
A funny story? I met a guy named Joe in line for the registrars office, a second year guy. Funny guy, told me some funny shit and a few tips like how to avoid the mealtime lineups at the caf and about keeping a stash of food in your locker just in case you're there late and get hit with the munchies. Told me which washrooms to avoid and told me where the cleaner washrooms were located....also mentioned something about a 'secret' bathroom on the fifth floor of S-Wing that he hasn't ever found but only heard about ^.^ Told me about times he and his buddies had fun times playing Risk while drunk as hell in the wee hours of the night in one of the upstairs study sections.
Another funny thing was the freaking chinese club XD Someone, a girl, tried to recruit me so I turned her down and walked off. Two minutes later, get hit with another person trying to get me to join so I turn him down as well. Few minutes later, a THIRD person asks me but when I pay closer attention, I realize that it was the FIRST girl that tried XD So I shake her off and head back to the caf where Gloria's waiting and I'm startled to hear my name called out. I turn to see Brenna and Mike, what's the first thing they say? THEY ASK ME TO JOIN CHINESE CLUB!!!! ARGH!!! My GOD. Chinese invasion, I swear to god!!
That's another thing, UTSC is like, packed with asians...it's like DMCI all over again. Not that I'm complaining of course...more asian people means that I get to see more pretty faces in the halls and classes yes? XD
. . .
What? Don't give me that look! I'm a GUY, what the hell else did you expect? ^.^;;; Yeesh...all you people are all alike...just because I don't talk about it or mention it a lot doesn't mean that I don't think about this kinda stuff...man, this reminds me of the time I amused my sis for like, half an hour while waiting for a late night movie to start at the theatre by keeping up a running commentary on what I thought of every girl that walked by ^.^ Seriously peoples, no need to be shocked or anything...I'm fairly normal in this sense...just usually not as vocal about it.
But other than that, I pretty much finished most of my paperwork with regards to OSAP and shit today so it SHOULD be smooth sailing from here....well, cept for making the minimum payment and buying books and shit... :P
But one thing at a time...
