Today was the first day of classes! I woke up at 6:30 AM (totally overestimating the amount of time needed to catch some breakfast and cross campus to get to French) and got the day started. One thing that I'm still not used to, however, despite it being only the first day, are those marvelous breaks I have between classes! This morning I was able to return to my room following French, not having another class until Physics at noon. Today's Physics lessons: basically a reiteration of dimensional analysis, vectors, and velocity. This time around, I actually managed to get a seemingly fantastic professor. He's extremely nice, patient, and thorough in his explanation.
Finally, the moment we've all been waiting for: my first architecture studio class... *Ominous music plays while an angelic choir concurrently sings* Today was mostly an introduction and getting-to-know-you class, so it was pretty informal. I've been paired with Professor Scott Ruff, the coordinator of the Freshman architecture class. He gave us a bit of an overview of what we do, how we're graded, etc. He also digressed a good deal. At one point he explained how patience, creativity, and persistence are all needed to be a successful architecture student. Quote of the Year: After all of the work you've done here as a Tulane architecture student, you're really gonna be good at what you do. You're gonna be BAD-ASS; that's a quote I will keep close to my heart for the next five years! Here's to the future!
