Winter is Coming
13 November 2007 10:51 amIt seems to me that all the leaves fell in the course of one evening, the night before last. I was walking around campus on Monday and realizing that there was suddenly so much more sky visible than there had been. Leaves have been falling for a while now, but it suddenly seems that there are hardly any more left in the trees. If I look out across the pond, there is still color, but it's muted somehow, a portent of more bleak views to come.
This impression was also reinforced last night after fencing practice. On the way to fencing practice, I noticed that the whatever-it-is tree by Tyler had dropped all of its leaves suddenly and without warning. On the way home from fencing practice, a cold rain was falling. Luckily I had the coat that sort-of doubles as a raincoat, and my sneakers somehow didn't get to wet.
Since it seems to be time to post class schedules, here's mine:
SCIENCE FIC? SPECULATIVE FIC? - ENG 208, 9-9:50 MWF
ADVANCED COMPOSITION - SPN 244, 11-12:10 MWF
LITERACY IN CROSS-CULT PERSPEC - EDC 210, 1:10-2:30 MWF
COMPUTER SCIENCE I - CSC 111, 9-10:20 T,Th
COMPUTER SCIENCE I Lab, 1-2:50 T
Which I'm pleased with. It's what I was hoping for. I'm not as thrilled about it as I was with this semester's schedule; I suspect that it will be more boring, but I also have the impression that the increase in boredom will be tied to a slight decrease in challenging-ness and how much work I need to put into the class (particularly if SPN 220, taught by the same prof, is any indication).
I'm not best pleased with the free hour between 10 and 11 on MWF, since past experience has shown that I don't utilize that hour effectively when I have it, but there's a work shift from 9:55-10:55 at the CMP, and maybe I can fit that in.
