School is underway and it's going fairly well. It's only the second full week so i guess i'll need some more time to really see how it will go. The first week I was incredibly overwhelmed at the fact that i decided to take the hardest classes ever in my last semester at Brookdale. But i did fill out the form that says i will be graduating after i take my final class in the winterim semester. I will be applying to Rutgers next month and hopefully starting there in January so I am really excited about that. It feels like a lot of pressure to make sure i do really well this semester to not screw up my chances of finishing in time to start Rutgers in the spring. I love Brookdale but i don't want to spend another entire semester there.
My history teacher is nuts and uses fake accents and completely elaborate drawings to teach but the class basically seems really easy so i'm relieved about that.
My statistics class apparently only has a 50% passing rate and i'm HORRIBLE in math. I'm most worried about this class because it's the first credit math course i've taken and i just passed the non-credit maths. Also, i've heard from a lot of people that statistics is the worst math to take. SO, i will have to study like crazy and be on top of my stuff. I have a quiz tomorrow.
Philosophy is really interesting, my teacher is good looking and the class goes by really quickly, but I have heard that this class is intense. The tests are 15-20pg long in class written essays. I feel like it could come naturally and i will have a lot to write about on the essays or it could be really painful. Either way, I feel like i can get a lot out of the class if i work hard at it.
World literature is the class i was most looking forward to and the class i actually like the least. So boring. My teacher is very uninteresting and we are reading ancient egyptian stories. Hopefully it will get better soon.
In Sociology we work in groups all the time which is cool but i don't like all the people in my group. I am the leader and i get extra points for that so i'm pumped but i am constantly competing for leadership with this obnoxious girl from keansburg. back off bitch!
I have to start going to meetings for The Stall and hopefully get my own column. I'm thinking big here.
I'm sososo happy to be going to the city with Laura on Friday to see Casey! i was supposed to go to ashley's with them but now i can't so i'm kinda bummed. it's not that bad though because i'm still gonna plan a trip up there soon and drive with everyone. plus, me casey and laura still get to have fun friday night at the show/rave/amazingess. yay!!!
My last day at shoprite is Friday and I'm starting macaroni grill next week. Wow. I am finally out of there after 4 long years. It wasn't so bad and I made some friends but i am very very happy to be moving on. Tips will be nice! and then i will (hopefully) have more money to do stuff/pay off lots of bills! yayy!
i think that's it for now.
