I Survived My First Week as an Audio Production Major

I made it to all of my classes, and I got my starter kit with all sorts of really awesome professional goodies. Among other things, the kit includes ProTools 9 and a Zoom H4 Handy Recorder. *drools* Trust me, I am paying for that stuff, but it seems free when it goes onto the tuition bill rather than coming out-of-pocket.
Things I learned this week:
- There is a whole lot of math involved in sound and hearing.
- This seems to be a male-dominated field.
- I enjoy going to class but forgot how much I hate homework.
- Being a self-employed, independent musician made me forget how many douche-bags there are in the world.
- I am so going to make friends with the video students and make a killer music video ASAP.
- I spent 5 hours on homework today alone. Have I mentioned I hate homework?
- A lot has changed since I last attended college – I turn my papers in on-line. What!?
