Waking Up
I've started carrying around a notebook with me. I always think of things I want to write, but forget them later. So, I have this notebook for, you know, note taking. Crazy, huh?
Anyway, jovo and I made it to New Orleans only to find out there's a hurrican pretty close by. Everyone's pretty up in arms about the whole thing and keeps asking what we plan to do if it hits. JoVo says he plans to do absolutely nothing because it's his senior year and nothing will keep him from finishing.
We drove all night to get here because we're slackers to the max. We didn't leave Tulsa until 7. Even then we went in the opposite direction for a couple hours to eat at Steak and Shake in Joplin. Totally worth it. Plus, we randomly got our meal comped by the super nice manager so it pretty much paid for itself.
I hadn't really thought of school much lately but being a Tulane poser has sorta made me want to finish. Most people here think I'm a freshman and I'm kinda fine with that. Mostly it's because I'm following JoVo around the campus. We went to this career faire thing today and a woman asked me about my major. I told her english and she started telling me about all the jobs they had available to english majors. It's a little fun.
I did some checking into things and discovered I'm closest to finishing with an associates in English. I'll be able to take advantage of TCC's Repeated Courses policy which will fill in some missing credits and improve my GPA like mad.
So, my schedule for this semester is:
Monday - General Biology for Non-Majors 2p-4:50p
Introduction to Literature 5:30p - 8:20p
Tuesday - U.S. History Civil War to Present 5:30p - 8:20p
Wednesday - General Biology for Non-Majors 2p - 4:50p
Internet Courses:
Introduction to Philosophy
Survey of Brittish Literature from 1800
That leaves me still needing 23 credits, but three hours of that is computer proficiency. I can take care of that with a little test. So not worried. The rest is Math (ugh), three literature classes (I'll be reading all semester), and then two electives. Sounds simple, though my past fuck-ups would lead me to believe otherwise. I really gotta get out of this skipping class habit.
I sorta feel like I'm lying to people. I haven't told anyone the reason I want to finish so quickly is so I can get the hell outta Dodge. Maybe they won't notice?
