First day of classes.
( first day of class stuff )
More about that on the academic filter later if there's time, but so far it is looking like better than last year. I actually LERNED something today, even if it was very easy it was new stuff that nobody has specifically taught me before. W00t.
This evening: no Aikido for me *sad face*, I have waaaaaay too much work to do still. There is BigScaryForm. There are the two assignments from last year that I still have to do by Friday. There are many students to phone, it's been really quite difficult to get in touch with them this year. There are hairs to wash, and dishes to wash, and foods to eat. And although I did practise and I did compose, I haven't had any real exercise today, nor have I been outside properly, so I need to go for a walk or a run or something. Maybe a run, it's faster. And I really need to start working on theory curriculum for my students, and get in touch with Louisa, Mihailo and Andrew from the Suzuki group and find out what they want me to do, and scan in my schedule and receipt and stuff so I can send it off to the bank in Canadia so that they can send me All The Munny. And I need to look properly at my academic schedule and e-mail my dad to say when I can come visit. And sort out the bloody passport form.
And that's without going into the stuff I'd like to do (like a few different LJ posts on various topics, and a shitload of reading, and all the gardening, and tidying beyond the damage control level...)
No rest for the wicked.
Spoke to my mum last night. My brother is apparently all settled in. It's really odd to think of him as being old enough to leave home, but time flies (like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana). Anyway it's good to hear that he's doing well.
