I think I imagined i'd be miserable here, and would cling to the "I wanted to go somewhere far away but pretended to be okay with UT" thing I do, but now that i'm living the Austin life and seeing all these cool things UT has to offer, I'm really glad to be here.
Which is good, since being glad to be where you are is definitely a good thing.
So here's the breakdown of my classes, for anyone that is reading this/cares/doesn't care:
Biology, Ecology, and Evolution:kind of hard.
Sociology: pretty cool
Critical Issues in Journalism: I want to be friends with my professor because his sense of humor is super dry and makes me laugh too long when everyone else has moved on.
Rhetoric: English class, so good.
...and last but not really least, Modernity, Anxiety, and the Art of the Uncanny: really really freaky. But interesting. Mostly scary. We watch scary movies and read unsettling literature and think about what it is that actually scares us and why. Other than when we had to read Freud, which made me feel stupid, but I'm sure as soon as I stop being terrified I'll like it.
It's so weird being here and accepting the fact that I'm not a highschooler because this hasn't stopped feeling like a field trip yet. I think it's because there are West kids all over the place, so it's like any minute Homez will pop out and be like "alright back on the bus" and I'll have to stop hanging out on the drag and go back to Plano.
Which I kind of miss. I liked knowing who and where everyone was. I liked how it was quiet, usually.
So there's a summary of my life, which I hate doing because I like when this blog goes months and months at a time with angsty post after post. Those are the best.
okay well when I think of something profound, or not, I'll write about it.
Hey Kevin.
