Back to school

David started his sophomore year at Westminster this past week, and has thus far loved every minute of it. He's taking four classes: Math, English, Contemporary Political Philosophy, and Speech. The campus is fifteen minutes away from our house in Emigration Canyon, it only has a few thousand students, small class sizes, and did I mention it's the only liberal arts college in Utah? David definitely puts the "liberal" in "liberal arts." He's right at home. His English teacher told the class the first day that he would occasionally make completely inaccurate or false statements and opinions, and that it was part of the students' grade to catch him when he did so. David's definitely at the right school - I think he's devoted his life to ensuring that everyone's statements and opinions are accurate and fact-based.

It feels very strange to me not to be going back to school. I've gone back to school in the fall for the past 17 years, and the fact that I'm sitting at a desk in a bank and not collecting syllabi and making a homework schedule makes me a little wistful. I might have to go buy some school supplies, just for me, in order to cope.

Have a good weekend, everyone!

  1. I feel you Rachel. Will bought his books this week and I looked through them wistfully - even though I'm not slightly interested in economics. It does feel very strange to not be starting school again! How are you guys?
