Fnyah, I don't start college for another week but I have my enrollment day tomorrow, which from experience is all the formal stuff, and then them luring you in to a false sense of security that you made the right decision applying for the course, before you actually start and realise you hate [I]everything[/I] about it.
YAY.
On the topic of finding people to sit with at lunch: Last year was hell because I had a different lunch period everyday, while most of my friends had just one the whole year. I had to cycle between 3 tables, one a day because of this.
Hope that will be different this year, but if it isn't at least I'll know what to expect so I can know what's going on everyday.
2010 - July - Gain Qualification in Production arts
2010 - September - Start university course in Film and Visual Effects
2011 - January - Realise course is going nowhere due to shit tutors and university's lack of organisation
2011 - February - Apply to new university
2011 - March - Give up on course and fail in style
2011 - September - Start University at SHU
To say that I managed to get into university before the new ridiculous fees
and beating the mountain of competition because of the new fees.

3 classes of unfinished AP work that I plan on doing in a day. School starts on the 6th, I don't have enough motivation to start the work yet..
I'm glad to be done with it this year.
Graduating with a ~2.5 GPA at best :suicide:
Started school, got none of the classes I wanted.
However the new Yearbook teacher asked me to join yearbook because the one last year recommended I do it because how much I helped out last year. I felt good about that.
But oh man, I got put in a remedial math class that I don't need. I NEVER ASKED FOR THAT!
I was so embarrassed walking in and seeing a bunch of stoners and jocks just sitting there bullshitting.
I hate schedule screw ups. :/

Are you... serious? I wouldn't talk to you if I was a stoner/jock either with that uptight attitude.
My first day of real school started, and I've got to say, it's better than I thought it would be.
I'm ready to get a cow pregnant!
[edit]
and by a cow I mean the animal. Through artificial insemination.
...I don't have sex with cows.
Starting on the 6th, finding someone to sit with at lunch is going to suck.
First september.That's real soon, feels a bit shitty, but it's not that bad
I heard that my class is going to be split up, I'm actually exited about this.
Man, KTH is great.
Sometime in October we'll "hire" an entire ferry that can carry ~2800 students.

You know what will happen on it.
Staring on 5th September, I don't care

Don't care about what?
Got a typing class instead of Journalism as an elective, I'm sure I'll have loads of fun all semester. Nonetheless, taking a typing class is required to take other computer classes, so this pays off at least.
Started school. And one of my AP classes already has 5 test grades in it (which all are 100). The way my school determines your overall grade is the 70%/30%. Test grades count 70% towards your overall grades, homework/daily work is the 30%. It works well if you're a good test taker or can write a good psychology essay/finish projects on time. But if you're a lazy bum you will probably fail.
Thankfully though, 5 test grades that are all 100's pretty much lock your grade down.
I would have to try really hard to make below an 80, and to fail the semester exam in a few months to get below an 80 in that class.
P.Cool if you ask me, seeing my goal for this year is a 3.5+ GPA.
i hate math
this means that i will never get a job in the real world
tough
Oh man, Oh God, Oh Man, Oh God, I have no school supplies and have only about a quarter of A Tale of Two Cities done my history teacher will have my ass!
Going in tomorrow for one measly hour to get my booklist and other some such
I'm in what's basically first year of high-school (5th year)
well i just found out the first semester i have got only 2 classes to attend to (well in October i will be at my co-op place so it would turn into 1 class, which is boring religion.)
My summer felt like it was extremely long and I just found out that I have more credits then required to finish highschool so I will be going home 2 hours earlier then everyone else.
First day of class today.
Swear to god my personal defense teacher is Bill Cosby.
And holy shit. The women.......wow.
I like it. Classes seem to good and met some cool people already.
Started second year at college a week ago. False fire alarm, 6 in the morning, first day. Three more were to be had for the remainder of the week. So far it's been a bit short from abysmal loneliness coupled with tedious professors.
You know what, I need to vent.
First year was a blast. I remember meeting great roommates and friends, amazing project group from English class, fun club activities and floor parties. Sure, some of the classes were hard, but the professors were engaging and made large effort to keep students interested both in and out of lectures.
Now I suddenly found myself hard to keep in contact with last year's friends since they were displaced all over the campus, and I frequently ended up eating meals alone since my roommates all hung out in different circles and were out most of the day. It's only been a week, but I sometimes end up spending an entire day speaking nothing besides the usual good mornings and hello's.
Lectures haven't been all too interesting, either. Nothing but reading and writing assignments, some more painfully pointless than others. Math sucks even harder now I can't understand what my professor and TA are saying through their ludicrous accent.
And to top it off, I had a vicious argument with my mom over the weekend. Again.
But no, I won't have this frustration again. I'm going to have fun even if it kills me.
Right after I do 70 pages of reading. And math homework. And essay. And... oh dear, this could be a problem.
I'm the only double bassist in a 42 person orchestra. We have 35 violins. We only have two cellos and four violas.
What have we done?

Exactly the same over here.
Senior year is going to be easy. All my classes are subjects I'm good at, except British literature. Fuck you Shakespeare.
Starting my sophmore year of college this Saturday. My girlfriends getting an apartment so I can tap dat ass without worrying about her roommates busting in.
And all my basketball team buddies are living in the same hall as me. Gonna be hella sweet
I'm from italy, so to be honest i don't know what to expect from this english college.
if some bully pisses me off i'll just put a horse head in his bed.
I've been putting the thing away for a bit now. But I just found out that we start on the first instead of the sixth this year. Bummer.
