Major Change #4

I'm going to change my major again. This time I'm going with Speech Communication with an emphasis in Interpersonal Communication. I really don't like my current major (Liberal Studies). If you don't know what Liberal Studies is it's just a broad education plan that mostly future elementary school teachers do. I can still graduate next Spring with this new major which is great. As far as what I'm going to do with this new degree, who knows?

Time Passing By

I spend too much time in the future. I wonder about different potentials without spending too much time in the present. I'm not a big fan of the here and now for myself. I lack passion in almost every area of my life. Sometimes I don't even have the desire to get out of my passion-less state. Life is weird.

The Tournament

The CSUF Titans have won the Big West Championship and are headed to the NCAA Basketball Tournament. We haven't made it there since 1978. 30 years ago. It's an exciting time. I was able to make it out to all of the playoff games that we played in this year. It was exhilarating to charge the Anaheim Convention Centers court after time expired in the Championship Game versus UC Irvine. Jumping up and down, yelling, holding my "number one" finger in the air, celebrating with the players. Oh man. It was great.

Semester #6

This semester is filled with crappy classes. Here is the mid-semester review:

Math 303a- Me and math get along about as good as Boston and New York fans. I have been known to flip off multiple unresponsive math text books in my time. It's a boring class where we learn about mostly useless stuff than I will probably never use. I have it at 8:30am which makes it even less enjoyable. The worst part is that I have to take math 303b before I graduate.

English 211- This class is one of my least favorites. I don't do the reading and that is all we talk about in class. I do manage to create some pretty cool doodles in my notebook though.

Liberal Studies 302a- This is the class that I got a C- in that I have to retake. Stupid plus/minus system. We have three exams and that is it. I feel like I did pretty well on the 1st one. I have to take 302b before I graduate which is also a difficult class. I think that I'm going to take it during summer school.

English 341- Children's Literature- This class is similar to English 211 in that we spend a lot of time talking about the assigned reading. The professor assigns a ton of it too. This class is super long going from 4-6:45. It's only on Mondays though.

Biology 453- This is my only class that I have on Fridays. It is a lab and a lecture. It is almost a four hour class. It's not too difficult which is nice. The material is the most interesting out of any class that I am taking this semester.

Where Am Going?

I'm lost. I think about my future all the time. I have about 1 year of school left and I have no idea what I want to do after I graduate. I know, I know "Lots of people are in the same boat". But that only helps ease my frustrations a little. I'm majoring in Liberal Studies which is mainly for people who want to teach elementary school students. I don't want to do that for the rest of my life, or even part of it. I just wish I had my diploma. It's not like high school where you know that your diploma is going to come exactly 4 years after you start HS. There are people here in college that have graduated HS years before I did and are still chasing after that piece of paper. I imagine that it's going to be nice to be a college graduate, but then what?
