I didn't visit one college in High School...

I'm probably not even going to finish my program. I'll be working on my own shit by then. Plus I have a sweet day job that will look great on any resume, so I'm good.

Where do you work Scott?


ASU might charge each student a $1200 "surcharge" next year. That's like $70 million! Are we honestly that fucked?

Wow.


As an independent contractor for my family's architectural firm. I do graphics, drafting, and surveys.

SU tuition goes up about $3k every year. consider yourself lucky

Haha, suckers. I go to a community college that allows you to check out $150,000 worth of equipment for a $100 deposit.

Just kidding, Scott. I knew that from the last hundred times I've asked ha

And it's not the money that pisses me off, it's the fact that we're supposed to have a set tuition due to AZ law. So instead of raising tuition, they throw on these surcharges. Sneaky bastards.


...uhhhhh

Do I really need to go over why I'm getting a better deal?

Naw, it makes sense for your program. But going to community college comes with the ridicule of it.

And I dunno man, if this surcharge goes through, I'll be paying about $600 to go to ASU. Not too bad.

Otherwise I'd be paying out the ass for a bunch of theory and not using any equipment. Super gay.

my schools tuition has gone up 6k in the past 3 years. apparently it is going back down next year because of limited enrollment/the economy, but lucky me that doesnt help

I GOT ACCEPTED INTO OKLAHOMA CITY COMMUNITY COLLEGE. HOORAY!

GO BEN!

i can't can't financial aid for my school apparently (SAE NY), gayyyy

1.5 years left. fuck. what am i going to do with my life.

i wouldn't worry about it, you'll most likely spend a large portion of your adulthood in prison.

My grades are slowly being released, and so far I got an A, an A+ and a C+. Guess which course is the one most relevant to my major? LOL

That pillow's not for reminding yourself that it's for suicidal purposes if you don't do well in school, is it?

Is he gonna smother himself to death?

That's how I'd like to go out. Overwhelmed by pillows.

That + Asian + performing bad in school... You know.









+ pillow

finally done for the semester. christ..

somehow pulled out a 4.0 after my only studying for the semester was right before my calc final. after a 3.3 first semester where all I did was study.. awesome. im also looking forward to a 14% tuition increase each of the next 3 years! my school looks out for its students in these hard times

my 3.3 is leading me to believe i might be going to be going to med school in puerto rico or just give up and go to nursing school.

thats why i switched from premed to MIS, i was getting emails threatening to drop me from the program cause i guess 3.3's just dont cut it these days

2 As, 2 Bs

overall gpa 3.57

A B B- B

could have sworn the B- was going to be a C. The two B's are in classes I didn't do any reading in.

overall gpa is 3.1, I think. gpa toward my major is around 3.3

Allow me to brag about my grades this semester:
Germs 101 A
Tech & Methd Percussion Instrm A-
Symphony A
Guitar Ensemble A
Theory I B
Ear Training I B
Functional Piano I A
Violin A
String Bass A
Spc Topics/Chamber Orchestra A
Ecology and Values B+

The only thing I'm not happy with is Ecology and Values... should have been an A. I aced every single assignment, but there were 3 homework assignments I just ignored, which apparently was a bad idea.

Telecommunications A
Pre-Production A
Production A
Post Production A

Scott you're a real G.

You have great taste Spenser.

Germs 101 was always one of my favorites

Is the required reading the book of the same name?

Best way to get rid of science gen eds, I ain't joking.

THAT CLASS IS ABOUT GIRLS ISNT IT? COOTIES.

Finally got around to finalize my schedule.

World Lit I
World Lit II
Advanced Composition
Spanish II (Via community college)

I guess your World Lit classes don't prerequisite the next one?

My hopeful schedule for next quarter:

Recombinant DNA Techniques (Lab)
Marine Biology
Zoot Suit-HipHop: Race-Pop Cult

it's UCO, anything goes.

Probably the best schedule I've gotten so far:

Chinese Language M T W Th 11:10 - 12:00 PM
European Cultural Pro-seminar M W 2:10 - 3:30 PM
Macroeconomcis M W 3:40 - 5:00 PM
The Body As Text T Th 5:10 - 6:30 PM

No Friday classes and don't have to wake up early than 10, with all four classes being stuff that I'm genuinely interested in (well maybe not Chinese so much, but oh well). Sweet.

It is kind of strange to come back to your hometown for college. It's just one semester, but I've already seen like 19 people walking around the campus from my high school days and class hasn't even started.

That's how I feel at college, even though I'm still an hour away from home.

Anyway, I think I've only got like 9 classes this semester, as opposed to 11.
Theory II
Ear Training II
History of Music
Woodwind Methods
Education 500
Bass Lessons
Functional Piano
Chamber Orchestra
Symphony Orchestra

11 classes in one semester? LOL WUT?

my classes for first semester:

1st year english seminar
american economic and business history
intermediate french
pre-columbian and colonial america

its pretty good but i think my high school had more interesting courses. i dont really care though because my schedules a breeze

edit: one class at 10:30, 3 others are at 1:30, 2 and 3

i had 8am's every semester for the last 5 years of college. you lucky people with your 10 am's.

I have 8ams all next semester, and 2 of the 5 days are student teaching, so I have to be on a bus by like, 7am. :[

aren't some of your credits only 1 credit, carrie? That may explain the 11 classes.

I need 7 credits and then I'm done with Undergrad finally.

HIST 301 Ancient Near Eastern Civilization M W 2-315
HIST 484 Historical Themes: Under Cross and Crecent Tu Th 330-445
>>might switch this out for a French History class

GRK 103 Ancient Greek Elements 1 Tu Th 2-315
ARTH 306 Art & Architecture /Classical World Tu Th 5-615

I'm signed up for 12 just in case I need a full load for my financial aid, if I only need to take just enough, I'll drop either Greek or Art History.

zooom, no class until 2

or shelves if you're ben/carrie's friend.
