The Night Before

At 09:30 tomorrow morning it begins...


My first class in nearly ten years is a two hour Sociology lesson, and while I'm not expecting it to be too challenging, I've never studied Sociology before so it will be a new experience for me.

My second class is after lunch, two and half hours of English and this is where I think the struggle will begin. I always found it a challenge to stay focused in classes dealing with topics I felt I already had a good understanding of. I need to set aside any arrogant belief in my superiority and be open to retreading old ground in the hopes of discovering something new.

While the college provides courses for those aged 16 and upwards, my course is for mature students only so it shouldn't feel too old. Four and half hours isn't an overly strenuous workload for my first day but nonetheless I'm approaching it with a degree of trepidation and nervous energy.
