I was late this morning, by 15 minutes. I almost didn�t go, but I did. And you know, I�m glad I went. It wasn�t the most exciting morning. We had a tour of the different student services (health, counselling, career, library, phys. ed). All our cheers were rather lifeless. We had subs for lunch. I don�t really like subs. At least not normal subs, because I hate vegetables and so I have to pick them off and the sub is then really soggy and empty. Yeah, never been much of a fan of mass-subs. Anyway, after lunch we went to the arts lecture hall where we attended 4 different 20 minute sessions -you could pick which ones you wanted to do according to which classes you have. They didn�t have a session for every single class so you just looked to see when someone was doing a session about one of your classes. I went to psych, soc, and french. It looks like the french is going to be insanely easy and boring for me so I�m going to see if I can switch into a different class. I liked the sessions, I found them informative (really except for French) and a nice length for our current attention spans. After that we did nothing for a while. Tried to work on the team skit for the following night. Yeah� oy. Then we went to see �Single and Sexy� which was well done. It is a play that addresses some of the possible serious issues that a university student (especially first year) can face, drugs, alcohol, abusive relationship, harassment, discrimination.. but with appropriate humour to lighten the weight of it. Yeah, it was good.
After that I went home and quickly got ready for Monte Carlo Night which was a campus wide event, meaning all the frosh from all the different faculties and residences can come. We dressed up and there was gambling (roulette is my favourite), dancing, a live jazz band, and lots of other stuff. There were so incredibly many people. It was absolutely insane. I did manage to see Janani right before I left, though, which was a miracle. It was great to see her! I met Alex, an engineer from the Alberta side of Lloydminster so I hung out with him, he did way better than me with the gambling thing. I ended up with 4 chips. He played blackjack though, and I didn�t. I only played roulette, cuz that's my favourite, like I said before. I'm thinking I wish I would have played some blackjack though, ah well.
