I might not be able to wait... :-/

Anna Smith and Annie Potts are doing the Supernatural paper, Postcolonial is done by Philip Armstrong, C18th Worlds is by Erin Mackie and NZ lit is by John newton. I've never had any of them, you?

Anna Smith- is ok- shes a bit huge on theory. John Newton is brilliant! I had him S1 and he was lovely- quirky fun and good

Erm, 5 years for an undergraduate is totally reasonable in Canada xD because normally your undergrad would be done in 4 years anyway. But most concurrent degrees are 5 years or more. Note the "or more" because concurrent degrees that include law, medicine or business school degrees usually take six or seven years.

I NOW SHUDDER AT THE THOUGHT OF WRITING ESSAYS. I THINK THIS HAD TO DO WITH A VERY BAD TA THAT KEPT TELLING US WE WERE ALL GOING TO FAIL. AFTER THIS YEAR, I WILL NEVER EVER HAVE TO WRITE ANOTHER ESSAY AGAIN . . . until my senior thesis, that is. If I do write essays, they'll be arts essays, preferably in English because I can't stand social science essays.

Hehehee. I have anxiety attacks sometimes that make my heart palpitate and then I find it difficult to breathe. I don't know how to get rid of them either because they're a relatively recent event. I had a bad dream last night. It involved sex with my exboyfriend. o.O.

Yeah... In New Zealand it's generally 2 1/2 years for a basic Bachelor's, 3 if you're cautious with the number of classes you take. Then if you want it's an extra year after that for Honours.

(or 3 years if you're greedy and want to do lots of papers!)

In a bachelor, that is.

Then specialist ones like Law or Engineering take 4 years.

I know there's nothing wrong with five years for a double degree, I'm just confused as to whether or not I actually want one. there's some stuff which I'm doing and I'm so excited about it and it's so much fun, and then there's other stuff that leaves me cold and the thought of doing it for another three years makes me want to cry. So, I don't know. :-P

I don't knooooow! Everyone keeps asking me and I don't know what to say. I don't even know where I'm going in the slightest.

That sounds like a pretty good plan, balancing English and Phil - and yeah, you may have to do a paper that you're not all that keen on, but unfortunately getting down to the crunch point of finishing your majors often encompasses that. I have to do Plant Diversity next year, despite my total lack of interest in plants and their diversity. Meh.

And don't worry too much about work. You've never had a history of being late yet, you'll manage. *has to go to work soon, doesn't want to*

What do you mean I don't have a history of being late? Dude, one year I forgot my French exam. I have forgotten birthday parties (like YOURS, actually). o.O
