Spring quarter began last week, and I'm taking 15 credits! Ack. Sociology, Lifespan (Developmental) Psych, and Human Nutrition. Both Sociology and Nutrition are online, and Psych is on campus. So far, though, so good. Psych and Sociology are lecture/reading based, with only a couple assignments the whole quarter. Nutrition also looks like it will be completely do-able. The thing is, sociology and psych are quite similar, in that the terms and topics discussed are overlapping already. Not sure if that's good or bad yet.
After a lot of apprehension, I asked to have my work schedule modified so I can have more time off for studying. I wanted to work 4 10's and have Wednesdays off. I knew that asking for a Friday or Monday would be an immediate no, and I really don't want a longer weekend, I want a day where all I'm doing is schoolwork, so that I'm not worried about it all weekend. So, I asked Tina, who gave me an immediate yes, but then there was Matt to talk to. So I finally asked him about it last week, and ended up with 4 9's and one 4. Wednesdays I'll work 7am-11, then I'll have an extra 6 hours to focus on school, which is fine. 4 10's would have been pretty difficult anyway. I lose focus as is after about 6 hours....
I also see myself having more time for myself on these Wednesdays, which will be nice. Our apartment has been a mess for awhile, since I started school. No motivation to keep things up as well now that my spare moments are spent trying to just relax.
So here's to my 2nd quarter of classes! At this rate, I'll be done by next summer, ready to start at UW (?) in the fall of 2011.
