So here I sit on New Years Eve at my babysitting job, sitting on the couch with a microwave pizza and a Coke watching one of my favorite chick flicks, Hitch.
Side note: Normally I am not the chick flick kind of girl. I would much rather watch an action movie. Almost always. But this movie makes me laugh. I’ve seen it many times but it still makes me giggle. Plus I guess it's more of a romantic comedy. Is there a difference between a romantic comedy and a chick flick? Eh, if there is one, it's not a big one.
Now normally this is not really how someone might like to spend New Years Eve. I wasn’t really thrilled about it when I heard about it, but I’m actually enjoying it. My friends are having a party tomorrow, which is really our New Years Eve party. Anyways, this quiet evening “out.” (haha) I’m doing something useful with myself and still having fun. I did forgot that not every family has not password protected wireless internet. Opps. THAT is why I am typing this up in a Word document. Also texting friend people that I like which is quite pleasant. I think I’m going to have to entitle this New Years Eve Ramblings.
So as I said, I am really enjoying this evening, however the start of next semester looms in the near distance. I am once again taking eighteen credit hours. I was discussing my schedule with one of my best friends at school and we are BOTH taking eighteen credit hours. Why are we doing this? Because we are crazy. But I’m actually looking forward to this next semester. My last semester was incredibly difficult for me, but I think this coming one is going to be a lot better.
My class schedule is as follows.
Chicago: This is a two credit hour class I’m taking A quad that I’m really excited for. It satisfies a social science credit and a diversity credit. The class is what the title says. Everything about Chicago. Now I’ll admit that I have not been to every big city in the United States. I probably haven’t even been to a lot of them. But Chicago is my favorite out of all of them. It is a beautiful city full of exciting adventures. (Ok, remember when I was resolved to not use thing as much as possible? It’s a lot harder for me than I thought!)
Intro to Psych: There is a long list of majors I think I could have enjoyed: Geology, English Literature, History, Psychology! I really enjoy psychology, much more than sociology (Sorry mom!) and I’m hoping I’ll do well in this class.
Something or other music survey: This class I am NOT looking forward too. I have already wasted more time than I was willing to give in the music conservatory. But my poor confused relationship with the music conservatory and the art department will be a topic for another time. Probably a long one.
Medieval/Byzantine Art: Confession- I haven’t gotten any of my Art History requirements done yet. This one will be my first. Our department just got a new art historian, and this topic is apparently his passion. I have come to the conclusion that if I am going to start Art History this will be a good place to start.
Photo 1: Ok, I’ll admit I’m a little apprehensive about this class. Photo 1 is film photography which I have dabbled in a bit but I could do so much more with it. Hence taking this class. Last semester I took Digital Photography and honestly I think I’m still figuring out the photography professor. I also get the feeling he’s still trying to figure out me. Maybe this class will be better since I kind of know what to expect from Greg. I’m hoping.
Women’s Chorale: All I am going to say about this is that I hope it goes better than last semester. Cabinet is driving me crazy. They treat us neither as adults nor as good musicians. I am both. I’m pretty sure most of the rest of chorale fall into those categories as well. At this point I will settle for one other, but I would LOVE to have both.
Ceramics independent study!: Ok, so I still need to fill out the paperwork for this class, I will admit. But it’s an art class so nobody expects it to get finished on time, right? If we can’t even begin to start an art meeting on time, all the paperwork doesn’t have to be on time right? But I AM EXCITED to be getting my hands dirty. I am also terrified! I have to figure out what I’m doing for my senior show by the end of this semester. I haven’t the slightest clue what that is going to look like. Also terrified that I am not going to be able to come up with anything. But we shall see.
So, there you have it. My informative and interesting class schedule for the coming semester. It should be a party! I hope everyone had a good night and may God bless you in the coming year.
