It has been quite a while since I have been here. I thought this little tidbit of information would be nice here.
I am currently putting off homework as usual and decided it would be fun to see exactly what I have left to do next year. I knew that I was running out of classes to take..but damn.
Gen Ed:
Core 350 - T/TH 1:05-2:30?? W-Various
Foreign Language
Fitness Wellness
General Music:
1 semester of upper-division lessons
2 semesters of recital hours
Junior recital
Music Performance:
2 credits of lessons (1 semester)
Senior Recital
Music Business:
BU 374 - Principles of Management
MU 490- Internship
Now I plan on doing my internship this summer which gets rid of that. I have only three actual classes that I have to take but I'm planning on taking a proficiency exam in Spanish with one of my other musical friends and I plan on passing out of that gen ed which means I only have two classes to take in a two semester span. Those being Principles of management(3 credits) and Core 350(4 credits) Now for the Music performance degree the 2 credits of lessons I think would be the same as the 1 recital for the general music degree...and anyways I'm taking hour lessons for the rest of my time here anyways. So thats taken care of. I still haven't been passed for performance although I really am hoping and expecting to because I'm gonna be everything I have into it this semester. So that would mean my junior recital which is 30 min would be fall semester of my senior year and my senior recital, 1 hour, would be spring semester. I think that you are able to register for these at 1 credit. This means that if I took all of my classes (not counting spanish) next semester the max credit load with ensembles that I would have would be 15 credits. As of now the least I've taken is 17 (which is also the most that most people can take without being charged extra). But that would also leave me with seven credits the next semester. In order to be a full time student you have to have 12 credits. That means I would have to find two classes to take just to be a full time student.
So this entire post is pointless. Much like a lot of things. But the basic gist of this post is that by keeping extremely busy for the beginning of my college career it will dramatically reduce the time in the end of it. Which will be very strange....
