Your Standard Gun in a Pen

First day of uni was interesting. I didn't start until 2pm and ended at 5pm, so it was going to be a short day, with only an hour break. But that was just the start.

I drove to uni but despite circling around a few times, there was no parking space for me to luckily park into. So I parked about a kilometre away next to this small park. The walk wasn't that bad, and it'll probably count as good exercise.

The first lecture was supposed to be an hour, but only went for ten minutes. Yes, ten minutes. The lecturer mainly told us about the online WebCT/eLearning thingo, and told us about our textbook. So we walked out rather suprised and with much more time to spare than originally intended. We (as in me, David V, Nishan and Mike) visited the campus bookshop to see the price of the textbook and it weighed in at $140. So yes, quite expensive. I could buy it straight off, but I'm waiting for my rewards card so I get a discount. So asian.

We spent time talking a bit, then headed to the library to check it out. Now I now the Cumbo library is probably tiny compared the main campus, but it was still hella cool. All the books, journels and magazines on pretty much all the health sciences offered at Cumbo. I could seriously spend some time just reading. Now I know why we have to get degrees from Uni and can't just go on Wikipedia. Ah well.

Last lecture wasn't really a lecture. It was more explaining on the course outline, and eLearning. Saw My Hoa (Vision Sciences) at that lecture, because a whole bunch of courses do the same on. It did go the near full hour, but that was because the lecturer was being more thorough in explanation. I stopped quickly for a Pepsi and then drove home. It took a bit of time due to traffic and wet weather.

I have to buy a labcoat soon for the practical lessons to check out dead bodies. I've seen pictures of what the dissections look like, but I know it's nothing compared to the real thing. So quietly nervous on that.

Bah! 8am start tomorrow. But I'm out by 3pm, so not that bad I guess.
