I dislike my posts lately. I feels like I used to have so much more to write about, so much more opinions to share and so much more that I wanted to think about and go over. Lately, I feel that all my posts have been pretty meaningless. Maybe soon I'll get back into the old swing of things...
I had my second official day of classes today. I'm taking five courses again and they are : Intro to practicum (social work with the 4 hour stage), legal problems of the poor (social work), Anthropology of development (focuses on india, indonesia and costa rica mainly), intro to psychological statistics, and introduction to the history of africa. They all seem to involve a lot of reading but most of them do not involve papers. In a way i am happy about this because with social work, i have enough papers and last semester I really had papers coming out my ass. All of them except one seem like they will be a lot of reading. Now the one that doesn't seem like a lot of reading is kind of scaring me. History of Africa has no textbook, no notes on webct and it's basically just about taking notes in class. Should be interesting, I haven't had a class like that in like... well I'm not sure if I've ever. The teacher was born in Madegascar (island beside african continent... part of africa) and he lived in India. He sounds British and I can't help but feel like I am at Hogwarts in that class (harry potter school), i feel at any moment he is going to conjure something up or tell me how to do the same. Hehe It's really awesome and I think i'll be able to listen to him well.
What else did I want to write about? I am really cold right now. I've been freezing all day. Maybe because I came home in the middle of a freaking crazy snowstorm..
Oh, with my family I donated 50$ for the tsunami aid. Although it isn't much, i feel happy that I did it. I told my granny and aunt I wanted to and it was nice that they did it with me. I would gladly go there and help if I could but I figure since I woudln't know what to do, it's best to give money, so the people who are already there can have all the resources they did. I'm kind of proud of canadians too, we've donated like 35 million or more by now, just people, not the government. It's stuff like that that still provides me with some faith in the human race.
