So far, I can already tell that algebra is not my thing. It probably never will be my thing. It’s just not something that my brain is wired to do as well as… say, some of my friends — not just one, but two of them have breezed through the class. Whereas I caught onto Statistics rather quickly and got it to the point where I was effortlessly able to map everything out, I have to sit there and think about things for awhile with algebra. Maybe it’s just getting back into the swing of doing math on an almost daily basis, though… I’m not quite sure.

I’m still tempted to say that it’s because I’m not good at algebra, or because it sucks…

Art class is also going fairly well, although that class runs for two and a half hours because it has to allot for studio time. But we can take breaks whenever we need to, as long as most of the class time is spent working on whatever it is we’re working on. I just have to keep tuning out the most basic of instructions, because I’ve drawn as a hobby for years and I do some of these things in my head — I don’t expect my fellow students to be like me there, though. Of course not! I understand that people may take to art just as I do math, haha.

All in all, the first week of school kicked off fairly well. Now for the second!
