The MIA LJer has been located!
WOW! I have been gone for sometime. I apologize for my tardiness, as I have been requested to update by a few people. A lot of changes have occured since my last update. LJ has changed a lot as well. I don't know if I like or hate the new page.
Anyways, I have changed majors yet again. I'm an official English major. I took a career services test, and it came back suggesting careers such as college professor, lawyer, public relations director, librarian, editor, author, and a few other related positions. I am really glad I did this because it just "feels" right. I especially feel confident with my choice after having a confrence with my English 1108 professor. She said that she was actually suprised I wasn't an English major because I'm very talented in the field, and she was even more impressed when she learned I was only 18 and just out of high school. This really reaffirmed my decision. I have already scheduled for next semester, and I now need to change my classes. I cannot do that online until the very beginning of next semseter in January. I am going to talk to my English Professor and ask for her assistance in changing my schedule.
Some other recent good news... I finally finished my Computer Concepts and Application class. I managed to get all of the work done, and I was able to take the final on Tuesday. I feel so relieved not to have to worry about that anymore.
Thursday was a day of slow destressing. After Intro to Intelligence was over, I turned in my Political Assessment and that took some stress away. With student government elections at 12:30, I still had some stress. Fortunately, that was gone by 1:30 for my meeting with Dr. Long. At 3:00 I was able to turn in my 10 out-of-class activities to my Freshman Seminar teacher, and finally that completed my destressing. It felt so good to get rid of all of those stressors before the holiday. Now I must read Assembling California by John McPhee and write a 4-6 page report on it for Geology, read Psychology of Intelligence Analysis by Heuer for intelligence, and finally, work on my 50-word vocabulary project for Dr. Long.
Thursday, I obtained the Freshman Senator position in Student Government. It was a narrow win, but look at how many narrow lost I have had in my life. A win is a win, and a lost is a lost. I'm really excited about it, and look forward to it when returning after the break.
I also joined the Honors Program this month. Which leads to my three and kinda four honors classes I'll be taking next semester: American Government, Speech, and Theatre Appreciation. Dr. Baker may give me an Honors seat in his Western World Lit I class to make up for the Written English II that I did not get to take.
Well, that's a pretty quick summary of everything that has been going on. I hope to update soon!
