School update, yay
Jan. 25th, 2008 06:20 amGah. Why is it not Saturday yet?
It's not that I'm complaining about having Monday off, or the fact that I don't have class on Tuesdays ever, but this early in the semester, a day off always messes me up. I feel like I was only just getting used to the whole 'being back in school' thing, with the getting up early and all, and then they threw that at me.
Plus the class days after said day off always seem to drag on, and we always seem to get hit with more work. Higher education's way of saying, "The government may make us give you the day off, but now you have a day's worth of catchup work to do, mwahahahaha!"
I'm just taking Spanish; I dropped the British Lit class. I thought it'd be really cool, but it turned out to be mostly analyzing weird poetry written by British guys I think had undiagnosed psychological disorders. (Blake's bio read as classic schizophrenic to me...) And I was in a room full of English majors who, while I liked them because they're smarter than half my Spanish class, but actually having class with them kind of sucked. They sat there for an hour gushing over the Blake poems, how 'brilliant' and 'meaningful' they were, while I tried to keep from falling asleep (the curses of sitting in the front row- the profs tend to see that stuff.) :)
Anyway, I guess it's just as well I changed my major, 'cause I couldn't deal with a semester of that crap, let alone a couple years.
And on that note, I'd probably better go grab my layers of sweaters and jacket and scarf, because it's gonna be in the mid 50's and raining all freaking day. Whee...
