Rebel Without a Cause
Do you ever not want to do something because someone brings it up and tells you you should do it? That is me all over sometimes. I am an adult and I will do what I need to do when I feel it is best to be done. I am capable of that. It makes me mad when my mom bugs me about stupid stuff...like I didn't live on my own for the three years prior to moving back in with her. She doesn't do it often, but when she does it really bugs me, because I know what I am doing. I am responsible and capable. And considering I have to act as a secretary to her all the time, I don't think it is very fair. I love my mom. She is great. She really is. BUT, she has her things she does that bother me. And now I kind of understand where my sister gets some of her less desirable traits. I appreciate being ale to live at home right now, but I will be excited when I have a real job and can have my own place.
Rant over/Speaking of which... I have been going over my course requirements for my degree and have figured out that I have about 14 classes left to take after I finish this fall semester (for which I am signed up for finally!) This kind of sounds like a lot, but it really isn't considering I will graduate with a minor (which I wasn't intending to, but is required for English Lit majors) and I have to take 1 or 2 more core classes that weren't required at CSU. This is of course expecting that they agree with what classes I have taken and the equivalents I have found within my major here. They should, because most are exact equivalents... just different names and course numbers.
I am going to keep a positive outlook on it. I am going to try to see meet my advisor the within the first week or two of classes to discuss my courses and what I need to do to finish up my degree. From there if she can't help me as far as what classes transfer and such, I will meet with someone from either the registrar's office or someone in academic affairs or whoever can help me kind of finalize my transcript so to speak.
While looking in the catalog saw that I can minor in psychology. I didn't think they had that minor, because it wasn't listed on the Psych/Socio dept. page. But in the catalog it said that all that was required was PSYC 1101 had been taken and 15 hours of courses. So I am very excited to see that they had this. I really didn't want to minor in Spanish (however helpful in a career that may be) and I certainly had no desire to minor in Gender Studies (only minor related to English other than...English). Besides, this will be a good basis for what I want to master in (Community Counseling).
Soooo now I finally have some plans and an idea of what I am doing. FINALLY! I like plans. Plans are good. I am a planner. I don't like not knowing or having an idea of what I am doing. Not how I roll.
Still waiting to hear back about a job. Blah blah blah. Bloo bloo bloo. Clearly they aren't desparate for another employee right now. Story of my life.
Classes start August 17. Castle starts September 19. Can't wait!
