Campus
Here I sit in the corner looking out over a tunnel between our Business building & UColl (a place they stick students who didn't get directly into their major). Ppl walk by talking about midterms, homework, & graduation. & I can't help but wonder if I'm ever going to get out of here. I'm not very fond of this place. The ppl are wonderful; the campus sucks.
Right now I'm in my fifth year. Enough (passed) credits to be a Junior. Yet in my chosen major I'm still a Freshman. Doesn't really matter tho. There are so many long-term students here that we go by our year often instead of our class standing.
It'd probably help if I could take a full load, but, alas, I've found I can't. Depression hits & everything spirals. Or perhaps I just need a break. I took courses all summer (A s last spring, A s all summer) instead of a break to up my GPA a bit. But now I'm burnt out & have dropped all but my only CS course.
The one thing I do enjoy here is working for the dept. The grading's at least interesting (although I'm amazed at how many ppl just cannot follow directions) & the lab assisting (teaching) is fun. The pay is horrible, but I'm getting experience & keeping my skills in tact. And perhaps I'll discover something I'd rather do than CS.
