KEEP SOME DAMN DISTANCE
Monday was my first day of school. Social-Legal Work. I finally got my confirmation only five days before that, ordered my books right away and they arrived last Tuesday. What I didn’t know was that they’ve stopped taking first-year students, so I’m in the second year and have to do everything from the first year as well. Busy year this is going to be.
I’ve got five subjects this year, plus about five from the first year. Law and Press & PR are probably my favourite subjects so far. English was ridiculously easy so I’ve been given other work and I can do my exams whenever I’m ready for them. The problem is that I’ve got other classes before and after English, so when I’m done with English I’ve got an hour and a half gap in between.
There are only ten of us, four first/second-years and six actual second-years. It’s a fun group so I can’t complain. There’s really no reason why I shouldn’t be able to finish this and finally get another diploma. Rob will kill me if I quit again, so that’s a good reason to do my absolute best.
The one thing that I’m not terribly excited about is driving 50 kilometres to school and 50 kilometres back twice a week. I’ve been to school twice so far and I can already make quite a list of asshole behaviour that people tend to show in traffic.
Don’t tailgate me for ten minutes and wait for me to turn off the motorway to speed up. THERE ARE TWO LANES SO THAT YOU CAN PASS ME. Also, tailgating me when you cannot pass me will only cause me to slow down and annoy you more so KEEP SOME DAMN DISTANCE.
Don’t take a roundabout the wrong way around when you see someone else coming. I would’ve driven right into you and collected your insurance money if I hadn’t been driving Rob’s car.
I could go on for an hour. I’m sure the list will only grow as the year goes on. Wait for the book next year.
