The harsh reality
It's not all play and no work in College. In my second week reality hit me; kind of hard too. The first lectures were fine. Social studies, politics and even business are subjects I'm interested in and the lectures and the reading seems fine and not mountainiously hard. Today however I had my first lecture in Mathematics and Statistict. I walked into the lecture theatre with the naive hope it would be a bit of charts and tables and hopefully not too hard. An hour later I was back in third year of high school, repeating equations and graphs; stuff I haven't done (and happily so) for one and a half years. Just finished my darn task for tomorrow's lecture and its 12 o'clock at night. Welcome to college I guess. Oh, and if that wasn't all I had my first French lecture too....
But good things happening aswell. I had my first soccer practice yesterday and it was great! So good to be back on the pitch and the practice went very well I dare say. Let it be that the standard isn't close to what I'm used to from IFK Lidingö but I really don't mind. The girls seem enthusiastic and nice and the coaches are relaxed with good skills. I think it will be fun. Next week's our first game (I think) so that's exciting. Furthermore I had my first boxing practice today. My body aches but it was something new. Feelt good too, fun, but now my body's aching. Good crowd and I hope I'll be able to keep up both soccer and boxing. If only there's time.
Also Linda was here visiting my crib. Really nice to have her over. Feels weird that she's in town and neither of us have time to see to much of eachother. Well, she got to see the flat and meet the mates so that's grand. I have to catch her tomorrow before they go back. Grasp that last little straw of home.. (hopefully my mum will be over at some stage before Christmas though).
Now I gotta crawl to bed. Got a rough day tomorrow with a good few lectures... gah! And soccer practice. But live life to the fullest isn't that what they say?
