Summer Addendum/First Week Back/One Year Blogaversary

There's one thing I forgot to add to my post about the summer that I must add at the request of my mother. When we were shopping in Bozeman, my sister and my mom saw some guy shaking hands with some other guy saying "Nice to meet you!" or something like that. They both thought that was kinda weird, but then the guy turned around and said "I just met the Fonz!" Yes, ladies and gentlemen, my mother and sister met the man who met the Fonz, aka Henry Winkler. My sister tried to get a picture of him, and ended up getting the back of his head.
Oh well.
I've had "one week" here at KU. Classes started on Thursday, and I've had four out of five of my classes. I had just Math 111 (probability and statistics) on Thursday, and Russian 212 (a continuation of last year), Geology 101 (yup, that's what it is), and Psychology 104 (yup, that's what that is, too). So far, so good. I have Journalism 301, a continuation of my hopefully increasing number of journalism courses. Since that is my major and everything.

And now for a big annoucement...MY BLOG IS ONE YEAR OLD!
Yes, one year ago today, I started "Life as a Jayhawk" to keep my homies apprised of any breaking details. Let's have a look back, shall we?
On Friday, August 19th, 2005, I wrote:
"Two days of classes done. Russian looks fun...except for the annoying TA. She doesn't really know what she's doing...she just kinda wings it it seems like. She goes way to fast when teaching us pronouncation, but we catch up. J-101 seems fun; the prof is a goofball. Yay! Speech looks okay...it's a grad student so he's pretty laid back so far. English looks just like A.P. English except with a lot fewer papers.
Hallelujah.
How are things on the social end? Non-existant. I haven't really done anything with anybody yet. I'm hoping the Navs thing on Sunday will solve that.
That's all for now."
Ah, to be a freshman. No wait. That's not nostalgic. I didn't like KU for a while. Nevermind.
Anyways, Happy Birthday Blog!

You SORT OF got the story right.... The man said, "Hello Mr. Winkler. Nice to meet you." And we were just a few feet away! And I knew who it was before the guy said anything about The Fonz. And I stood there with my mouth hanging open like an idiot! ...So now I feel better.

By the way....never heard of the word, "Blogaversary". Did you make that one up yourself? :o)
