Day 1... Meet the Challenge

As I walk from Old Farm to my afternoon class, I pass the "Meet the Challenge" Bull.  (Full with all his jingle jangles.)  A thought comes to mind.  Can I meet this challenge?  I want to answer this now instead of later.  I NEED to answer this now not later.  University is a huuuuuuuuuge undertaking.  So with this thought, I go to Math.  But before we talk math, let's start from the beginning.  So, I'm up at 7:11 am;  I wallow a bit as I always do in the morning.  (I'm not a morning person.  I'm better than I was.  Now, I can form whole sentences & not just grunt at people.)  Do all my stuff; I'll leave the details to your imagination.  I catch the LTD (or CVTD if you're new school; I old school.).  I arrive on campus at 8:30ish.  I've got an hour to kill.  I walk around a bit.  There's a buzz I've never noticed before.  I could feel something last week as I took care of the necessities, but this was unreal.  I've never been a part of something like that.  I decide to head over to Old Main.  That's where Sociology 1010.  I'm excited to go in.  It's my favorite building thus far.  If you're going to Utah State.  Take a second & look at it.  Now, really look at it.  There's some beautiful stuff there if you take a second.  Soc 1010 was a lot of fun.  The professor walks in in levis, dress shirt, tie, & blazer.  Very professional.  Now, a few more details, the shirt was untucked & the tie was loosely around his neck.  Again, very professional.  (Seriously, no sarcasm.) Just my style.  He's kooky.  I like that.  It was so much fun.  I even raised my hand, but was not called on.  There's a lot of reading, but hey, I like to read.  It's not my romance novels, but it's something.  So, I've got a break from 10:20 am to 4:30 pm.  I'm cool with it.  I walked into every building & found my classes.  It was fun to see.  I'm a people watcher.  So, there...  That's fun for me.  Math 0900 is in the Business building; again at 4:30 pm.  It was fun to walk around there.  That's where I'll be spending a lot of time over the next 4 years.  The class was fine.  Why am I in 0900?  Well, I'm out of "Math Practice".  Being in the work force 12 years, I don't think I used any Algebra.  I may be wrong there.  But it will be a discipline I will master.  A light bulb went on when we started, but it's a good refresher.  Rather take this & not stress out about 1010.  "Knowing is half the battle!"  The only problem I had was the "Get to know you exercises."  I survived though.  At least I didn't have to get up & state my name, where I went to HS, & what I did over the summer.

Now to answer my question, can I "Meet the Challenge"?  After one day, HELL YEAH, I CAN!
