Here We Go Again...

Rough day, but it helps having this view

Congrats to everyone for making it through the first week of school, hopefully others were more graceful about it than me. With it being my third year at SBCC most would probably assume that I'm pretty good at adjusting to a new schedule since I'm so familiar with the campus, but leave it to me to make some classic freshmen mistakes. This morning was a prime example. I started off the day by sleeping through my alarm and not waking up until my friends somehow managed to get in my house and drag me out of bed. I should also probably mention that these friends woke me up 15 minutes past the time I was supposed to pick up them up for school. The time it took me to get out the door was rather impressive but I suppose there wasn't much time to primp my hair with only 20 minutes to get from Isla Vista to the school. I surprisingly found a parking spot fairly quick and was only running about five minutes late, which wasn't too bad considering the circumstances. But then my next rookie mistake occurred. While rushing to class from across campus I got the room numbers mixed up and ended up walking into a lecture hall with about 100 people quietly listening to the professor, and in my flustered state it took me several steps to realize that I was in the wrong class. Next came the embarrassing walk of shame back out the door, but this time they weren't so quite; I now had an audience of 100 giggling college students and an old professor of mine shaking his head. After making it the proper classroom I naturally had to endure some comical ridicule from my professor with his jokes about how he had already dropped me for being so late on the first day of class. Once I got through that I was finally able to get my morning rolling, and luckily didn't have any other major plot twists throughout my day. Hopefully I don't have any more mornings like today this semester!
