I started about three weeks ago. I'm living at home, so it's not quite "the college experience," but all in all it's not that bad. Classes are shorter; but there's more reading for them. I have a few friends at the other college in town (note: one of the only two all male colleges in the entire country), so they're around town a lot because Longwood, the college I attend, is very co-ed. I only have class monday wednesday and friday, five classes each day, except friday, then I only have three. I really lucked out with my schedule, I imagine it will get worse next semester, but it can't be too terrible. I wish whoever else has just started or is returning the best of luck come exam time.
