I got a life!
Well sort of anyway. Haven’t been able to post as much because I had Monday off with the kids and we went to the museum - which was fun. Then starting Tuesday school is back!!! Yeah. My classes keep getting switched around. I know which classes I’m taking but the professor and section and time keep getting changed. It’s really playing havoc with my brain that likes all these things nice and neat and orderly. Here are some of the things that have happened.
Since I transferred schools very late, I got into the registration very late, and therefore classes were limited already. So I did the best I could and kept watching for classes I wanted to open up. When I went to class yesterday I thought I had it all worked out. They weren’t my first choices but they seemed to be good in terms of my work schedule and child stuff etc. So I started out the day with the following schedule:
M, W, Calculus from 1-3 pm
W Physics Lab 3-5
T, R Jazz dance from 5:30-6:45
Sat (ugg) physics 8:30-12:00
Yesterday after sitting through my very full calculus class I realized I did not like the teacher, seeing as how he was INSISTENT with absolutely no compassion for not having the money or the extra time to go to the math lab that I buy the stupid piece of software called Mathematica. Fellow physics students think it is lousy, and my TI-89 can do whatever it can. He even tried to type out this very complex calculation to prove his point and I said “I can do that on my TI-89″. He didn’t care. He didn’t care that I could print it out from my calculator - “can it do it with this much resolution”? Who the fuck cares if it does what is needed…
Anyway, then I went to visit my cosmology teacher from last semester to get my final and say hi, and he couldn’t find it (I told him he shredded it after our coffee date because he couldn’t stand looking at it - it made him laugh). When he asked who I was taking physics with he almost had a convulsion when I told him. So I ended up yet again, switching classes around. I am now on the waiting list for my advisor’s physics class and will very likely make it in (he’s told me he’d make an exception for me as a physics student). Then I switched my calculus class, and as a result had to switch my physics lab. It has increased the child care needed for Mark (unless I drive to class every day and pay gas/parking which I may) and it has totally screwed working on Mondays or Wednesdays but I’ll be able to work all day T,R, F and Sat. Hopefully my boss will pity me and give me all the hours he can.
But yes, haven’t written - got a life (for a while anyway).
And it looks like my daughter will be coming over for a movie date tonight - HOORAY!
