School Update

As everyone SHOULD know, I am in my second semester of college. Only 4 semesters left to go, until I have my Associates Degree at least - and then its off to a University for me.

I am taking 4 classes this semester:
- Political Science
- English: Analyzing Literature
- Art: Introduction to Art History
- Geography (which doesn't start until March 23rd, its a fast paced class)

Everything is going really well for me this semester. I hit a few rocky bumps at the beginning with the cost of books and having to drop two classes, but other then that its been great. I absolutely love being in school, I love learning new things.

Over Winter Break, my most anticipated class was Poli.Sci, however, now that I have started this class, I am not enjoying it. My professor is a COMPLETE jerk - constantly downgrading his students, grading unfairly, etc. I am just grittin my teeth and barin' it, and trying to kill him with kindness (isn't working so well!). I don't care how much of a jerk he is, as long as I pass the class! Other then him, all of my other professors are wonderful!

I will definitely keep you all posted on how school is going throughout the semester!

I'm in awe of you, Alexa! Keep up the great work (such a cliche' to say that, I know). But, really ... keep on going. Don't give up. Reach for the stars. We're all just so proud of you for having a dream, and going after it. Love you girl!

Unfortunately- it always seems that we all have had teachers that drive us crazy, but just continue to grin and bare it.Hey- Do I need to have a talk w/him or maybe sick some of my guys @ work on him?? I can hook you up-Just Kidding. Anyway- Take Care, & we love you bunches, Nana
