Down to five

Five weeks left of school... well four weeks really because the last week is all Final Exams. As of right now, I have a 95 in Philosophy of Religion, 90 in Ethics, 96 in Speech and a 74 in Science. I really need to get my freakin' Science grade up before final exams. At this point, I can probably get out of taking the final exam for Ethics and Religion both since I have A's in both classes. As for Science, it's not that I don't enjoy the class. I actually do. It's just... hard to remember all the damn terms. I'll be glad for summer break but, knowing me, I'll get two or three weeks into the summer and want to go back to class...

5 weeks into the semester

So far, so good... kind of. Science class is kicking my ass but I'm really trying to get into the swing of it. I was never good at science in high school and I figured and Earth Sciences class would be the easiest way to go. I was apparently wrong. *sigh* Not that I'm like failing or anything, but I've only got a C in the class at the moment. I really have to pass Monday's exam. Like... with an A or something...

Spring Semester 2012

So, Spring Semester has begun an we are three weeks into the semester. I have Earth Sciences and Speech on Mondays and Wednesdays and Ethics, Religion, and Physical Fitness on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have three papers due in the coming week and I'm a little freaked out by it all. My Religion class is killing me because it's a Philosophy of Religion class and there are people in it that don't have any belief in God and some of their ideas and comments just really hurt. Dad says I just have to take what they say with a grain of salt and let it go because I know my beliefs and it's okay if no one feels the same. Let them believe what they want because they can't change the fact that I believe in God and that I take much of my religious knowledge and beliefs on faith alone. I'll be okay. It will just take time.

End of Fall

And so, the fall semester is over. I've taken all my finals and grades will be posted by next Wednesday. I'm hoping to come out with a semester GPA of at least 3.25.

I am all registered for next semester: Intro to Ethics, Philosophy of World Religion, Physical Conditioning, Earth Science and Intro to Speech. Yay me :)

Spring Semester Registration

So, I registered for Spring Semester today. On MWF, I have Geology 1301, Fundamentals of Teaching 1301, and Speech 1311. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I have Introduction to Ethics 2306 and Philosophy of World Religions. I will be a busy girl come spring semester.

The trip to Italy in May is off. Maybe I can take the next trip. We shall see.

Finals for Fall Semester begin December 5th and run through December 10th. Grades have to be in by December 12th. I am keeping my fingers cross that I can pull out at least a 3.5 this semester which will bring my cumulative up to a 3.25 or a 3.3 depending.

This weekend will be spent writing the final draft of my World Lit research paper which is due next Wednesday before we get out for Thanksgiving break. After finals, we are out December 10th until the 18th of January so... like 5 weeks on break. It'll be nice.

Two and a half weeks left for the semester

So, it's down to the wire. I ended up dropping out of my psychology class last week because I wasn't learning anything and the professor wasn't helping anyone at all. So, I am left with Math, Architecture and World Lit. I turned in my photo essay for Architecture class today. My research paper for World Lit is due next Wednesday (the day before Thanksgiving mind you) and I have one more test in Math class. My math professor drops our lowest grade which means if I can make an A on the last test, I'll have an A for the semester. I've got an A in architecture and a C in Lit. But, I have a re-write of an essay, my research paper and my final exam so I think I can pull out a high B and maybe even an A if I'm lucky.

Next semester will be busy. The school changed the academic catalog and so, I thought I was more than 50% done with my degree plan. Nope. More classes to take than I'd first thought. *sighs* Looks like I'm at SAC for four more semesters instead of just two. Oh well. That's the way life rolls...

Mid Terms are over

So, after mid-terms, I have an A in Architecture, an A in Math and a B in English. I am failing Psychology but I have decided to drop that course. I just can't deal with the idiot professor.

In other news, I'm applying to go to Italy in May and June for a study abroad program with the architecture department. I'll get 6 class credit hours while there. So, I'm taking an Italian course and a photography course next semester so I'll be ready. Of course... this will all only happen if I can come up with the $500 deposit I need by December 14th. Anyone wanna sponsor me for that??

So, for the most part school is going well this semester. Down to 8 weeks until finals. It's all downhill from here ;)
