Guys, I'm a nervous wreck right now. I can't contain my excitement. This is my second year going to college next Monday, and I'm freaking out. I'm not even going to be taking any real chill classes, except for philosophy. It's going to a forcey fun-time adventure through Biology 1 & Statistics 1. I'm pulling my freaking hair out, can't you see my stress THROUGH YOUR COMPUTER SCREENS? BIOLOGY! STATISTICS!!! GAhhhh! And guess what I'm going to take the next semester. Another BIOLOGY AND STATISTICS! *crying internally*

I was also very excited but I was extremely confused about the whole process applying and stuff. Apparently my tuition payment was due today? I'm not sure what's to be done about anything I'm very lost and I'm worried I may not be able to go to college this semester :/

I'm not sure what's to be done about anything I'm very lost and I'm worried I may not be able to go to college this semester :/ Trust me, it will never get better. Just pray to God, and hope to die, that you've actually enrolled. I haven't heard a thing from my new professors(they usually email well beforehand giving us a syllabus and a couple pointers about the class) and it's worrying me because the college just changed their system and everything is out of whack. So, never EVER think applying and registering will get easier as you mature. If anything, it gets WORSE... And here comes the butterflies in my stomach... I thought I digested them after my freshman year in highschool. |

I'm sorta on tri-semesters and mine doesn't start until the 12th, but I'm talking a bunch of easier classes this year (easier for Web design and development).
My classes are: Typography, Creating Online Media, American Foundations, and Global Hotspot: Pakistan. I'm almost done with my generals, and will have about 2 semesters of harder stuff after this.

Trust me, that's a bad idea. You know why that's a bad idea? Because I thought that was the 'good' idea. Don't eat desert before your veggies, because you're going to be extending your overall degree, and you're going to have to cram all the bad stuff at once. The thing I should've done was to mix both easy and hard classes together and be gone with them in time to start your bachelors. |

Well my last semester ended in total disaster, so me and my wife are edging back into it. (well i'm edging, she is finishing her last semester.)
I'm not doing it as a "Plan", but rather a way to get myself out of a rut.

You know that makes a little bit of sense, but also I have no idea what degree I want so...
Also I found the list, I have college composition(lit202), human evolution(anthro202), Rotc year 1(mil101,104), and Race privilege and power(rscs 104) which all sound like fun

Both are hard to get into. My highschool 3d animation teacher said "You're going for pixar, but you'll end up at pixelhut". I really didn't care for him, and now I'm on my way to become a Marine Biologist.

I'm doing Web Design and Development (online) my wife and I got this great program, that if you do some dumb classes for a year, you can take any of the online degrees basically at cost (65$ a credit) so my whole degree will be under 10,000$ Yay no school debt ^_^. The downside is that you are limited to ONLY the online degrees. So I picked WDD, and she is going into Health Care Administration.

Ahaha I'm on a co-op program so instead of looking forward to school I can look forward to spending an internship nursing my wounds from my still-too-recent exam season...
But since we're sharing upcoming courses, on my winter term I've got Algorithms, Operating Systems, Numerical Computation, Statistics, and Computational Modelling of Cellular Systems (yes I am not kidding). Excite! First term where I actually get a lot of CS options opening up for me now that the mandatory set of prereqs for the upper-year courses is mostly through.

Oh boy, wait till you adult for a few years. Basically, your first year in college will seem like an extra year in highschool, but after a while, things will change. |
