Party and Math, Not Math Party

What happens when you invite approx 300 people on Facebook to a goodbye party?

12 show up, and you know what? It was awesome. ^_^ We just relaxed and enjoyed the evening. I was able to spend time with some of my friends before leaving and while I didn't get to see everyone I'd hoped, I'm glad I saw who I did. We started off hanging in the courtyard at my apartment building and waiting for people to show up. For about the first hour there were three of us, but once more people showed up we went up to the roof top and enjoyed the view.

This is what we could see of the sunset. The photo was of course taken with my magical new camera, Sally. (Who knows if the name will stick but it sounded good at the time.)

So we sat up there until people became too hungry to endure, and then we went to a restaurant where a friend and I ordered a chimichanga the size of your head! So good! And I took a lot of it home with me for the next day. Yum yum yum.

Much later we walked back to my apartment, some more people came, and we sat beside an outdoor fire. In a fireplace, don't worry! The last person left at 2am and my head met pillow. Well... after I played on Facebook for a while that is. Sleep? Wha... Yea... No. It was a grand old time though.

Now for the math aspect of today's episode: I was looking up what textbooks I'll need because I finally found where to do that, and low and behold, what book pops up for my math class? The text book I used last year for the math class that didn't transfer as a math credit. The text book I just shipped off because I sold it on Amazon.com. The text book that was for an incredibly easy math class. And people at Columbia kept showing surprise when they saw that class, and would say, "Wow. You're good at math." Really people? Really? I know it's an arts school but come on! This class was so easy and it's supposed to be a mid level math class. Oh artsy farts... You are lovely special people. So anyway, I decided I did not want to take that class again so I searched and searched and finally found another class that should count as an elective. On the down side, I'll have 10 minutes to get between classes and I don't know how far apart they are. On the up side, it didn't disrupt my schedule and actually made the days those classes are on shorter school days. Score!

Now all I need to do is to see if I can convince the counseling office to make my previous math class count as a math credit since I can tell them exactly which class it's equal to. Fingers crossed! That would be awesome! So the lesson here is to be ready for some adjusting, and eventually you'll have a schedule you want. Now I just have to finish getting ready to actually go to school. Yikes!
