Winston Churchill
I've always been the type of person who appreciates a great challenge. That's just how I am. The problem is most classes at Columbia are NOT CHALLENGING AT ALL! But, it's made up for by the absolute funness of all the classes.
I'm sitting outside my Latin American Studies class waiting for the door to open and I"M thinking about how wonderful it would be to meet a nice Mexican boy or girl and have a really lovely chat about being Mexican. I sort always considered myself Mexican, though it was something I had to keep to myself most of my life due to astringent amount of... Well, lets just say not many people would listen to a black Irish girl if she said she better identified with Mexico than America.
I've always kinda looked Mexican. Kids at my high school used to ask if I was all the time. Which is pretty stupid considering my mom worked at the same school and was obviously Irish. I guess they were shooting for a Mexican father or something.
I always wanted to learn Spanish and hopefully this class will give me a better knowledge of it than I already have, which is a little bit formidable.
Truth is I love my school. I love everything about it. I really do. I love the teachers and the students and did I mention there's a class completely devoted to Harry Potter? Did I mention I'm taking it?
Tomorrow I've got my English class at five and my Scientific Investigation class at 6:30. And then it's off home for sleep and hopefully I'll get at least a good seven hours of sleep before my 7 AM wake up call to head off to Harry Potter.
