<p>I guess I'm getting kind of nervous for tomorrow. I thought I would be fine but I guess it's finally sinking in lol.</p>
<p>Any advise on how to survive the first day or any words of wisdom?</p>
<p>Thanks for helping me calm my nerves!</p>
<p>Go walk all your classes today (as if it were tomorrow). It will save you time and stress tomorrow trying to find where the rooms are and you will learn how long it takes to get from class to class.</p>
<p>Thanks for the quick response! Keep them coming! Also what should we plan on bringing with us. I was just going to bring a bag and a notebook and something to write with. I don't have any of my books yet because I want to wait to hear from the teacher. But is there anything else we should bring?</p>
<p>In Florida, I would recommend bringing an umbrella.</p>
<p>Spoke to daughter, two of her classes met only briefly today to give out the syllabus, discuss the class in general and then they let out. Looks like they are starting things off slowly. Thank goodness Fay has finally moved on!</p>
<p>My S's first class professor informed them he'll be gone the next two weeks; don't bother coming to class. Intriguing start. <g></g></p>

<p>Yeah, my anthro teacher told us if we don't want to come, don't bother. He lectures directly from the textbook.</p>
<p>So far the whole small-honors-class thing is not a very sunshiney part of the day. It's very awkward having 15 kids in a class.</p>
<p>My professor was very nice, so I expect to enjoy his class. He was my only class today, except for symposium. We went over the syllabus, and by the time we were done, it was time to go.</p>
<p>One of my honors' classes only has 7 students. While it can be awkward, it can also be pretty cool. If you try, you can make some friendships with the kids in the classes pretty easily, since you have multiple things in common, such as that class, and being honors students. </p>
<p>And, honors classes, atleast in the past, have had a small budget ($50?) to throw a party with near the end of the semester. The only classes where I have been invited to professor's homes for dinner have been honors classes, and the teachers I still talk with from classes a year or more ago are generally the ones who taught an honors' class. </p>
<p>Plus, you get the free printing and computer usage in the Honors Computer Lab, which is generally less busy than the Library computers.</p>
