College

Hey Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Make me Believe by Angel Taylor.

College is coming up in a couple weeks, 20 days exactly. It is such a mind trip when I think about it. College is something I have been thinking about since my freshmen year of high school. Now it is here. I am so excited about it. I cannot wait to get into classes that are harder and be able to discuss things to a great extent. I am excited about the longer class periods even! I am taking a class with Twin even! Which I am very happy about. I will be going to classes Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. I am happy about the long weekend, and the midweek break.

I am taking a literature class on gender and sexuality that I am sooooo excited about. The course description is "This section will explore how definitions of gender and sexuality affect our lives, choices and identities in powerful ways. We will read a variety of women's and men's viewpoints and will analyze, research and write essays on topics such as advertising, pornography, sports and work." I am looking to dive right in. I know that I will be able to offer a great deal to the class. I am looking to incorporate my own knowledge into the subject, but am also looking forward to adding to my knowledge. Not to mention it is a class in my strong suit, English.

Then I am taking an evolution class that Twin is enrolled in as well. It satisfies a requirement and it is a class with Twin, so I am excited. If Twin wasn't taking this, then I don't think I would have taken it my first semester, but it something that sounds interesting.

I also have a speech class, which I am thrilled about. I need to remember to keep my excitement to a minimum the first day at least. My oral communication skills are definitely up to par, so I don't think I will have a problem in this class. My speech class in high school was amazing, and I was one of three people to walk out of the class with an A. I am confident in the arena. Also, so far this is one of the only classes that has a lot of seats open [9]. I hope it stays that way. Speech classes are always better with a smaller number of people.

Then I have an Early Western Civilization class. I am a bit wary about this one. I know that I will need to study for this class and really pay attention. I know that with the amount of time that the class covers and the time we have to cover it... *geesh* I think this will be an interesting, but time consuming class. Although this class only has 13 students enrolled right now, I hope it stays near that number, I like the more personal classes and I would love it for this subject.

I have an Intro to Psych class, which I am really only taking so I can take abnormal psych and adolescent psych. I have already taken an intro to psych class in high school. So this should be relatively easy. Another reason I say that is because Twin took the class and I remember her talking about it and knowing A LOT of what she was talking about.

Then, the class I'm enrolled in, is Film and Society. I don't really know what this class will involve, but it sounds cool. So I have an open mind as to what to expect.

That's what my life is going to be like soon. I am very excited.
