Not for me since I've been there for three weeks and I have two huge projects to keep myself busy with but it was for the other programs and melbUni. This had several consequences for me through out the day.
First I had a lazy morning and didn't get out of bed until 6:03. This means I got to the tram stop just as it was pulling away. I decided not to take my computer today because the weight of my laptop has been giving me back pain. Ironic huh. (yes this is situational irony because school is supposed to be allowing me to alleviate back pain, not causing it) Don't worry though I did homework on my phone during the tram ride. The sad part is I'm not kidding. I got to Uni just in time to be late for my exercise class. Luckily I just barely made it in. Then after a quick shower I was off to class, since it was 830 there weren't too many orientators yet. We sat down and started our lecture on introductions to stem and leaf plots. I think I did these with Mrs. Warner in 3rd grade. Throughout the class people kept trickling in. They would look concerned try to sneak to the back sit down and realize that this was an actual lecture and not a welcome speach. Then they would again try to sneak out. They were very disruptive and extreamly bad ninjas. That class ended a tad late which meant that the entire class was 15 minutes late getting to the next lecture across campus. Luckily we move as a mob so it isn't me showing up late by myself. Unfortunately the lecturer had an engagement at 11 so our presentation on energy sources in exercise was abridged. It was a good lecture too, I'm sorry it had to be shortened. For anyone who is wondering taking carbohydrate supplements during a long run will enhance your performance but decrease the process of metabolizing fat. This means if you're running to win, eat gels. If you're running to lose weight, don't eat them. At lunch I met with my group for the Dookie farm project. We wrote up our terms of agreement and divided up the research. After that Marsha(my group member from guam) and I went to the orientation carnival.
I got a free bag of goodies that I haven't really looked through yet, free coffee, a free spinach burger, a free slurpee, free ice tea, wasabi peas, and fried rice(in a bag, I gave it to Katie). Afternoon class was just as exciting because in addition to the people accidently walking in half of my class had picked up balloons. Then I headed home. I couldn't get full texts but I started looking up Journal articles on my phone. Unfortunately I was too late to do bank or post office stuff so I just got to work. I looked up and summerized 3 articles and that was my day. Sorry guys I think until I turn in my first project on March 9th that is going to be my schedule. Gym, class, 4 hours of homework, bed. I promise to try for pictures and some exciting stories.
