Pleased As Punch

I looked up the word "content" and found the synonym "pleased as punch." Not sure what it means but decided to use it!

Well, today was a LONG day. It's midnight thirty (Shelby!!!) and I don't have class tomorrow. Heck yes! But yeah, Tuesdays/Thursdays are my long days with 3 long classes but the classes are still super good. I woke up around 10 and went to class at 12.
I. love. my. sociology. class. The current social problems class I'm taking fascinates me.
Now....time to get a little personal....
Last year, I was a declared History major and I still currently am. Halfway through winter system, my history class was driving me crazy and I just wasn't satisfied. I wasn't sure what direction I wanted to go after college with a history degree as I don't want to teach. I was talking with everyone and searching majors when Cortney (bless his heart) mentioned the possibility of sociology. I honestly had no idea what it was but the idea sounded intriguing. One of my favorite things that I did last year was meeting new people. But not just meeting them. I loved learning their back story; what their family is like and where they grew up. It really creates a clearer picture of the person they are today. Also, the parts of history I really like have to do with civil rights movements. So I decided to take a chance and take two sociology classes. All summer, I was really worried that the classes wouldn't work out, I wouldn't like them and would have to return to square one.
Well, after the first two days in these sociology classes, I got overwhelming feelings of peace. Even though the classes are HUGE and I don't know anyone, every time I'm in the classes, I feel at peace and have received answers that this is the major for me. I *hope* I'm right, as everything feels right, and I just love the subject. In my intro class, my professor talked about different programs one could go into with the major and I don't know, everything just feels right!!!

Tonight was the first football game and WE WON! Wooohooooo! It was great to be reunited with old friends and hall-mates (Emily, Ashley, Christina, Serena, and Courtney). Even better that we won. Basically, I feel pleased as punch, whatever that means ;)
