Because.
Class Dilemma
I like Volleyball, really I do. But with my spring class schedule it looks like I'm not going to be able to play this semester unless one of two things happen:

1) I decide to ditch Class Piano and sign up for Intermediate Volleyball which is in the same time slot. I don't especially want to do this because those intermediates are really into winning and try VERY hard. This means increased possibility of being hit by a ball in the face. Again. sweatdrop Plus I do kind of want to learn piano, but I could always save it for summer if it's offered, when it's a bit too warm for volleyball.

2) Exchange my Analytic Geometry and Calculus I class for Precalculus II and Volleyball. Although technically I'm supposed to be trying to get ahead as quickly as possible, I am not secure in my trigonometric abilities at the moment, and Precal II can help with that. This decision almost entirely depends on how well I do on the current section of Math Analysis, since it deals with trigonometric functions we're supposed to have learned in pre-req classes. xd The downside to being allowed to skip classes.


Had to ditch singing classes entirely for this semester. Hopefully summer or fall will be better. Don't think I'll try Class Voice again....the class size was just too big to allow us the amount of individual attention I was expecting. May just have to find a private teacher if I really want to improve.

Considered taking Precal II concurrently with Calc I, but that would put me over the unit limit with my current selections and I'd have to drop something. xp I suppose I could try asking a counselor to allow it...but I imagine they're there for a reason. Like to keep us from overextending ourselves. sweatdrop

I'll have at least two of the same teachers I had this semester either way, which is cool. 3nodding There's another one I wanted, but he only teaches Ag-related courses, so I'll have to hold off until other semesters. Why do colleges have to have so many choices all in the same time slots?!? crying It would be slightly easier if I could take evening classes, but it's too inconvenient getting home afterward. I did however pick another 8:00 AM class. xd I meant to ditch early morning and evening classes entirely, but I'm greedy. rofl If only more classes were offered on weekends...although, I did pick three classes this time around that offer a "choose your own hours" setup. so I can hopefully fill in some more afternoon hours and Friday to make my stepmom happy.

Summer, I'll have to try an online course. I'm hoping to get through Expository Composition that way. xd

I apparently decided to save it for after class XP

Ugh. 8:00am class. PAH!

How many classes are you going to have next semester?

Heh, I know. I was very tempted by another 8 AM class too, but that would have meant I'd already be waking up at 7 AM on Mon-Thurs, so I'd be taking showers in the afternoon instead of the morning unless I wanted to get up even earlier, and I wasn't up for that. So I'll just do what I do now, but a little earlier since my MW class starts at 9:30 which means I'll be leaving the house around 8:50. @_@ I'm going to have so much less free time this semester. sweatdrop

I'm currently looking at 8-9 classes. rofl Over half are one credit classes though:
1) Introduction to Accounting I - 8:00 to 9:25 AM - TR
2) Economics - Micro - 9:35 to 11:00 AM - MW
3) Class Piano - 9:35 to 10:36 AM - TR
4) Career Decision Making and Educational Planning - 2:25 to 3:50 PM - TR
5) Ten-Key Proficiency (Choose Own Hours)
6) Computer Keyboarding, Beginning, Part 1 (Choose Own Hours)
7) Coed Fitness Center (Choose Own Hours)
cool Analytic Geometry/Calculus I - 11:40 AM to 12:42 PM - MTWR
OR
cool Precalculus II - 12:50 to 1:52 PM MTWR
9) Coed Volleyball - 11:10 AM to 12:12 PM TR

...Although now that I'm looking at it again I'm rethinking MicroEcon a bit. I wonder if there's another 3-4 unit class I should be taking instead...
