School comma

Aug 28, 2007 21:39

I don't know why there's a comma.  But cartoon Archer is sort of my attitude towards school right now other than being utterly tired because I miss my two hours a day nap on the bus.  I can't nap on the city bus.  For one, scary people ride it, including lots of dirty, smelly, pervert types...and then I have to you know, get off, and the drivers are all obnoxious except for like..one.

But uh..worked out schedule, specifically bus schedule.  Yet again I was sucked into fears of the whole thing about the advisors and orientation leaders and teachers saying "these classes are going to be really hard, you're going to really struggle...etc".  Ok.  It's the exact same work I did in Honors.  Actually...Honors was harder.  Because my two big English classes (I'm only taking three upper division classes this semster, I wanted to see the workload first), have three major essays and other minor assignments.  Honors, one Honors class had six essays per semster.  So uh...yeah.  And Survery of Brit Lit?  No essays.  It's crazy, she's having us do these little mini-projects, which aren't projects at all, then there's a final.

It's so weird, someday I'll figure out I don't need to be scared about this crap.  The only problem is Rhetoric and Lit Genres want that whole "write down questions you had about the assigned reading" thing, which..I don't ask questions, I just sort of absorb.  It's not that I'm not learning or being an active reader, I can make good arguments already and I know what literatary genres are and I know how to analyze them and so forth.  I just don't need to ask questions because anything I wanted to ask a question about is answered, or isn't meant to be answered, then why would you ask the question?  So I absorb.  And the same is true for other classes, I rarely ask questions because I just don't need to.  It has nothing to do with my learning process.  I don't know if I inherited a "just getting it" gene or something but that's the way it's always been.

That's my only real concern I suppose, but everything else should be fine.  A friend from Butt(e) is in my Brit Lit class, so that'll be fun. 

school: chico state, the bus
