Man oh man. It's the worst feeling in the world to not know your direction. Not knowing where you're headed, or how long it's going to take before you get there. It's worse when you know that if you had just...stopped and asked for directions, or took the path you didn't want to take, that you wouldn't be lost to begin with!
But when you find yourself with an end in sight, all that trepidation and worry goes right out the window.
I speak, of course dear friends, of graduation.
What's that? No, no. I'm not graduating last Spring, like I should have. I know, it's silly, but I was lazy, and it took me longer. This quarter? Heavens, no! But, I do at last have an end in sight.
The price is a full time summer schedule, of course.
Spanish 102.01
English 201 (big ass survey course)
English 398
Once I kick Spanish assolio, I'll be on easy street sort of. At least those damn GECs will be about finished. After that, the English classes I'm taking, like 597, which a 500 level or above requirement as well as an "Issues of the Contemporary World" requirement, and Eng 290 or 291, fulfills multiple categories.
Sweet.
So now, the projected graduation is: Winter 06 ......... Not too shabby! The only weird thing is that I'll have one class left at the end of that quarter, which is a science course. Animal Sciences 310, I say. I'll either have to do a 20 hour quarter (oh GOD *die*) or take it in the Spring and graduate then. I can't decide...but I know I wanna get this shizzle done as fast as possible.
I'm pretty bad about not studying. I think that now that my major has changed to something I actually like and am good at has made all the difference in the world. Stats isn't as bad as I thought it would be, *knocks on wood* English is decent, if a little demanding for a 200 level course. And, omg Spanish is a blast and a half.
Way too demanding, poop on the department for that one, but I have met the coolest people in there. One of which is a National Guardsman (Freakin' hottie) who just returned from a year's stint in the Sandbox. He has some amazing, scary and awesome stories to share. Another girl and I help eachother and work together a lot, she's really nice and knows more vocab than you can shake a sombrero at. Every single person in there is friendly, and there isn't one person I am afraid to just chat with, which is GREAT! Our prof, Ignacio, is hilarious. The whole class spends time cracking up at him, and eachother. One of the few times I actually do enjoy going to class.
Well, and Stats lecture. Finding reasons to chat with Troy is the highlight of my week. Or, will be, when I grow a hefty pair of balls and have the courage to say hello.
OH! But I DID meet Maurice Hall's girlfriend today. Apparently she is taking Stats too. And, apparently he freelanced and got drafted! Awesome! Go Mo.
Life is good, for the first time in a while. How cool is that?
