First day back and only a slight case of the first day jitters… Seriously though, this was quite a day, jam packed with adventure.

My friends picked me up for school, and we got there early, and ended up running into one of the faculty we all had freshman year. He is currently repeating the class we were in as freshmen (Awakening the Dreamer, Pursueing the Dream), and this only the second time it’s been offered; we were the originals. And he and the other faculty wanted us to come back and “wake up” the new group of freshman by making a surprise entrance on their first day (today) and doing something spontaneous. So my friend Joey and I ran through the class and shouted “I love Joseph Campbell” (a central figure of study in the class), and then as we ran out, we shouted “Copy Cats!” at them. It was so much fun, and I got an email from the faculty and said it went over perfectly!

See, you gotta understand that my freshman core program was really amazing, and pretty exceptional. I am still friends with the faculty I had two years ago, and with many of the other students I had in my class too. I recently had someone ask me if it is easy to make friends and get to know people at Evergreen, and I gotta say, the structure of the school is set up to facilitate making valuable connections between students AND faculty.

So, class was pretty successful, I am really excited to do some art and sculpture this year. Speaking of which, I got together with some friends after class and started the process of getting an art club “student group” status. I can already tell it’s gonna be a busy year, but it’s shaping up to be an exciting and eventful one.

Til next time!
