Lesson #1

Should have listened to my dad's wise advice years ago and not brought books to class.
They're heavy and probably unnecessary. And even if I need them, they're still heavy.
Good news from campus -- I rode my bike here successfully along Chicago's beautiful lake path, picked up my U-pass (free CTA!), and found my way (at least a little). Now, awaiting my first nursing class.

Weird news from campus -- the guy next to me has two cell phones, connected to each other, and is hunt-and-peck-typing as he surfs eBay. The library has come a long way. He's also wearing slippers, socks, basketball shorts and Marc Jacobs sunglasses inside. Where am I?

No bad news from campus yet -- except for that I'm older than almost everyone I see, under-dressed compared to most people and a little lost. But I've got my trusty map -- it's cool to carry a map around, right?
