This semester has been exhausting. All thought has turned to mush, and all desires have become sleep. I never really knew why people took electives. Not until I started college.
At the beginning of this semester I decided that I didn't want any elective type classes, such as art or music. I wanted to zoom through AUM, so that I could hurry and start and finish my collegiate career. "I just want to start working in a real job" I can remember thinking. So I took on English Comp 1, Chem 1, ECON 1, and Calculus 1. Four real classes, with real work. ECON is really easy, and has barely any homework. Chem has no homework, but it has a lab to keep up on your toes. English has sort of homework, but its the kind that really takes effort for a good grade. And then there's Calculus.
Today I half-way skipped Calculus. I went in and got my test results, and asked the teacher what sections he was going over. He gave my test back and let me know, and I was on my way. I had a Chem lab report to type and a Test this afternoon. But back on Calc. As I looked over the test results sheet, I realized that I did it. I made a 100 on my test. It was an awesome feeling.
I remember just a month or so ago complaining about how hard Calculus was, and how it was going to kill me. I think that I need more sleep and less work, but overall I'm doing alright. Next semester, I want to take four more core classes, and move even closer to my goal.
