vvvexation | A surprisingly non-lousy day

Managed to get through my first day of classes without running for the door. I'm tempted to think this is a good sign, except that in my experience I start out most semesters this way, thinking "oh, this isn't bad at all--I can do this" and then a few weeks later finding I'm just not keeping up. So it seems awfully premature to hope this time will be different...but at the same time, I don't want to crush this optimism quite yet, as it's the first time in a while that I haven't been feeling like shit about school and everything remotely associated with it.

More details about my classes later, perhaps.
