mmkay, I am getting frustrated.
I am almost maxed out with courses I can take at the college. I can't transfer yet. My wrist has really messed up the process of taking the 2 calculus courses.
I figured I would take Calc II again, mainly because I know I could do way better and the winter semester was just crap for all kinds of reasons. Also, it's going to be awkward to get time off a contract job to write the final in August. And frankly, I need a freakin' break from school. I didn't even check my marks for the winter semester until today, that right there says I am sick of school.
Since I've already decided I will take Calc II again, (I decided this the day after I wrote my last term test, alas, that was one day after signing the "I" contract) there is very little point in forcing myself to find time to study and write it if I'll just be doing it again in September anyway. I need a break.
I'm thinking I will write a letter and ask it to be added to my file so that it shows that I failed the course and did not write the exam after signing an "I" contract because of specific reasons and not just because I am stupid or irresponsible.
I thought this plan would work out well because I could take the English Lit course that for once was not offer this summer (otherwise I had planned to take it as an evening course) and I could take Astronomy for fun. But I just checked the courses offered and the English course is no longer offered. When I checked a couple of months ago it said it would be offered in the fall. So now I'm stuck in an awkward spot. I either take 2 courses in the fall and 1 in the winter (assuming it's offered then) or 1 in the fall and 2 in the Winter. Either way, that messes up my plan of one last full-time semester and then working.
Or, I could work full-time for one semester and then do one full-time semester starting in January. But I don't think it will be that easy to find a job in September, especially if it's only for 4 months.
Maybe I can find a part-time job, but that might end up being pretty awkward.
I'm pretty unimpressed with this. I could consider trying to take some other courses, but my choices are pretty limited at this point.
fuck.
