Day Two.

Today was my second day of school.  I am so excited it should be illegal.  I am really looking forward to learning in all my classes. I can't wait to dive in to my communications classes.  For two of my classes I am assigned to read the New York Times everyday.  I am actually quite thrilled about this and don't look at it as an assignment at all {well, until the quizzes start...}.  I was already planning on keeping up with current events and reading the paper and now I have multiple reasons for following through with it.  I think it's neat that I know a little bit more about the world I'm living in than I did yesterday.  I like it.  I would rather  be aware of what is going on around me than live in ignorance and pretend everything is peachy. 
For my Principles of Journalism class I need to get {another} blog to write about current events or things discussed in class and a twitter account.  I'm not sure how I feel about the latter.  I honestly don't really see a point to twitter.  It's basically a page for multiple facebook statuses.  But I can see how it's beneficial because twitter is one way to relay information and spread news quickly. 
I'm pumped for school to really get started so I can delve into my major and make the steps necessary to get where I want to be.
