Back to School

"Why don't you call me some time when you have no class?"

~~Thornton Melon

So we're now a couple weeks into the most recent semester....and I am thinking it might be time to open up the book finally. Which means I have to make a study date with Denise, since I refused to buy the book for this class. So tonight it will be Jet's pizza and "What branch of ecology includes....?"

So far, this class seems pretty straight forward to me. The instructor lectures right from the book, and even hands you the notes for the lecture at the start of each class. VERY easy....if you own the book.

Denise, on the other hand, is about ready to slap the instructor upside the head. The guy isn't the most organized of people, and may think he said something when he really didn't, but can I really fault the guy for that? Of everyone in the class, I'd be the least qualified to cast THAT stone.

This is the only class for both of us this semester, so I tried to calm her down and put that in perspective for her....but if you have ever met Denise, you know that's not going to happen very easily.

We also discussed how she's going to be in school til she's about 90 if she continues to only take one class each semester. I'm in the same boat right now, but this is pretty much the last class I can take at this school and be able to use it elsewhere. Even so, it just feels wrong to only have 4 credit hours in a full semester. I'm still disappointed I couldn't get into that Atmospheric Science class. It definitely wouldn't have been applicable to my degree, but it's a class I would truly enjoy....my transcript is littered with classes like that. Like my History of Rock and Roll class a few years back....wait a minute, that actually counted toward my CRJ degree. Alright, nevermind.
