a new semester

Well, a new semester has started.  It's hard to believe that we are already in the spring semester of 2011.  I had my first day yesterday and my professors kept me the whole class time in all my classes and I already have homework that is due tomorrow.  What happened to the first day of school where you went and the teacher just called roll, gave an overview of the class and that was it for the first day?  I guess we just have to get as much as possible in every semester.  We will see how the semester goes, all I care is that it is easier than last semester.  I will never take 17 units, work and be involved with a ministry ever again.
