I really like all of my classes this semester. All of the topics are interesting, specialized, and worth my time. I finally feel like I am accomplishing something here, and learning things I didn't know before.
I also really like all of my professors, save one. And that would be my history professor, because he is just plain boring. I honestly don't think I need to know what peasants ate in 1432 for breakfast, thank you very much. Not worth my time...at least all the trivial matter isn't.
I really enjoy my TE class. Why? It's on racial diversity and i have a mandatory service learning program I have to do to pass the class. My assignment is to tutor kids in grades 6-12 in math, reading, and writing. I get to talk to the kids and work with them, on more than just their homework. I'm excited to begin, even if it means I have more on my plate.
This semester is going to be a tough one. Eighteen credits plus 2 hours/week of tutoring, the gym 3 days/week and all that lovely reading my professors have pushed on me. But at the same time, I'm excited to dive deeper into my classes and learn what I can. Ecspecially from my English prof, who is rumored to be the hardest prof in the English department. You have to love a guy who brings in his Ben Franklin action figure to class to show us. It made my day.
Besides all of that, i have a guy at my side who loves me, a great family who is going support me, no matter what happens in March, and a great group of core friends. I'm getting closer to my roomie and my suitemates and as each day passes...the more I want to stay at MSU.
Keep your fingers crossed in March and pray that I get in. :) (But I think, even if I don't, I am going to stay at MSU and finish my degrees...Then, after I graduate, go for a post BA in Education...it may just happen).
Anyway, I'm looking towards this semester with optimism and hope that I accomplish everything I aim to, and that something very good appears in my e-mail account in March. But for now, I'm going to chug along, working hard and learning more...

*NOTE* I find it amazing how people from high school change as we get older. Not to say I haven't changed, but I am noticing more and more how the people I thought were my friends...shouldn't have been...just a passing thought
*NOTE 2* I mentioned in my previous post I want some comments. And even thought i got 10 hits...no one left me a note...There's a place for you to comment for a reason. If you have a opinion, or whatever, leave it. That's why its there...
