i'm a nerd.
any suggestions for summer reading?
so far, i've read Hey Nostradamus by Douglas Coupland and A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Taves. I just started Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen. and I've read some of Jane Eyre, but the beginning is kind of dull.
i just registered for courses. yay.
i'm taking:
History 250 - Twentieth Century History
(I had to take two history courses and i didn't know what to take, this course sounds interesting)
History 232/Canadian Studies 232 - The History of Education in Canada
(i'm going to be a teacher and apparently this is a pretty good course....)
Environmental Science 270 - Environmental Science for Teachers
(i'm so excited for this course. it's about teaching science to elementary school students. i never thought i'd take science outside of high school, so it's something different and exciting. there's a lab even! i plan on taking the math version of this course next year).
English 2500 - Foundations in Canadian Literature
(i have to take either Canadian, American or World Literature, if i decide to major or minor in english so i'm trying to keep my options open....)
English 2000 - Foundations in Practical Criticism and Theory
(this is a required course...like the equivalent to Academic Writing)
and i get friday's off! although, i'll be using them to student teach for awhile.
anyways, got to jet. work in an hour and a bit.
