Naw, more like temporarily sometime in December. Basically the fall semester starts.
Honestly, I'm probably not that far from an associates degree, but the thing is that I have a math and a couple of science courses that are required, and basically I just hate math. Math is my nemesis, I hate it, and it hates me. Best case scenario it bores me to tears, worst case scenario I don't understand it and it makes me feel like like an idiot.
I'm definitely more of a liberal arts person than anything else. I enjoy and prefer classes where I can express myself.
My boyfriend's niece stayed with us for about a month last year, she was thinking about possibly going to school here, or at least that's what my boyfriend thought. Oh my God, it was Hell! Anyway, I don't think she was college material. I remember she said her favorite class was math, but it's not like she had straight A's in it either though. I just recall trying to show her something I was working on for my Interpersonal Communications class, and her eyes just glazed over like some drooling imbecile. She literally had no clue what I was talking about. She's not the best at expressing herself which baffles me. I can't imagine ever not being able to express myself, but I guess I've experienced that sort of inability regarding math all my life. From pre-algebra onwards I've always had a hard time in math.
Sorry about my ramblings. One of the life mistakes I'd most like to undo would be when I dropped out of NLU to get married to mistake number one. I guess I just want an associates degree and then a bachelor's degree in something so I can feel better about myself, and put my regret of dropping out of school behind me.
I think those mistakes have greatly affected the way I see life.
I'll say this. Creep Studies is a bad choice for academic direction.
I'll also say you are not alone. Many, many, many liberal arts majors under-perform in math. Long ago, the game for them was to apply credits in Logic to their Math requirement. (usually taught under the Philosophy department). If that's not enough credits, sometimes classes in the non-computational kind of Set Theory that database designers use can also be applied. Check with your college's guidance department. You may want to take these classes at a different community college and transfer the credits. This is because they are frequently weeder courses designed to flunk people out.
I wish you the best of luck in your academic pursuits. Hell, communications is what everybody wants at IIN anyway. When that math genius, green_boogers, gets algebraic, people go into La-la land.
Thanks, I just registered for my classes. I wish I had done so earlier though, because I just checked the Rate My Professor website and two out of my four professors are rated as not that good. Ugh. My sister said that they were probably just poorly rated, because some students got bad grades, but I'm still uncomfortable. Also I was registered for a public speaking class, but I'm pretty sure I already took that over twenty years ago. I had straight A's, but ended up with a C, because I was a no show for the group project. I usually HATE group projects.
If I were part of the public you were speaking to, I would start admiring you. Mmmmmm, dreamy. Feel the love, sweetie. You have more friends than you think you do.
Yanno, a funny thing is that I used to be in Toastmasters, but my crappy customer service/tech support job changed my schedule so I wasn't able to make meetings anymore. Maybe I could have tried to get my schedule changed, but between always wanting to work on the same team as my best friend and the fact that my stupid ex-boyfriend at the time was in Toastmasters, and I didn't want to see him anymore I wasn't going to go back... meh.
I was once inToastmasters because my employer said they would de-mote me from Principal level if I didn't work on public speaking. I made several nice friends while there, and was known to excel at table topics. But basically I hated it. I'll take math or software architecture any day.
Yep, see we all have our areas of expertise. Some of us are more right brain, and some are more left brain. I assume you're more agnostic or atheistic in your mindset, but regardless I want to share with you the assertion that we are all blessed in different ways. The person who designs computer software, is an engineer or a rocket scientist is not the one we would care to tune in to on the nightly news or listen to on a morning radio show. Conversely we certainly wouldn't want our most beloved Oscar award winning actor to perform brain surgery. The people who fight our wars for us are probably not suited to careers in child psychology or animal behaviorism and helping our dogs and cats in need of prozac recover from their separation anxiety or aid animals in their recovery from the PTSD they have suffered as a result of having had abusive and neglectful previous owners. Please excuse any run on sentences, as they are a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine.
Anyway, my point is that we are all gifted in our own ways, and yes it does reinforce my steadfast belief in a Higher Power despite the fact that it reminds me of my own personal deficiencies and personal weaknesses... but enough of the lofty talk of balance in the Universe.
More about me! I am being consumed by my anxieties and fear of failure.
