    loltheories.

    April 27th is the last day of classes for me. I think I can make it 5 weeks. That is 15 japanese classes, 10 Cog Sci, 10 Comp Sci, and 10 Films About Love, Sex, and Society. I can do this.

    15 classes? How long and how often do you have those? I finnish at about the same day and I've got about three classes of each course left! They are 3 hours long, weekly classes btw.

    edit; Bagels rules!

    I have 3 japanese classes a week (the first two are 75 minutes, the third is 50), and 2 of each of the rest, all at 75 minutes per class.

    Yep. I've no idea how the rest of the Uni is getting on with other sports though. We do have a fencing club- they train at the same time trampolining does. I don't know if they're actually any good or not. Thinking about it, you probably know better than me!

    watashi wa oferikusu desu! Ohaiyo ! -- That's about all the jap I know, well that and the "H" word :lol: but that's more, errr... well let's just say BOM ain't R rated yet.

    I prefer weekly three hours classes than shorter ones. In three hours you can focus more deeply on a subject

    [​IMG] I've finally moved onto Corsets with a 24" waist :)

    Feels very nice actually. Fully steel boning as well so it's nice and close fitting :) Unfortunately it mainly accentuates the fact I have wide hips :(

    I don't focus with long classes, my attention span cannot last that long no matter how hard I try. Which is odd, since in high school we had 90 minute classes (as opposed to the 50ish minute ones for most schools) and those were great. I think it is because high school is more hands-on rather than lectures, which may be why I was able to work hard in lab for 3 hours.

    As such I'm planning to schedule all my classes on MWF, which are 50 minute courses rather than than the TuTh 75 minute ones.

    Meh, don't remind me... I'm starting back college in July and will have to cope with listening to someone yammer for hours... and I have an attention deficit, so staying focused in a royal PITA. Hmm... now that I think of it, there might be something that could help me with that. I'll have to try.

    I hope next's term's classes choice will be better, This term was good, but some classes are just boring though. Late Roman Empire was awesome still!

    Saber; what is your major, btw? You seem to have a rather eclectic choices of classes.

    Rated R BoM? Three words - OH HELL YEAH!

    Wandering around the BoM, cursing like a drunken sailor... and just imagine the discussions! Maybe then I could freely express how much I hate John Cena...

    Not sure yet. I really want to be involved in film for my career, but my university does not offer a major in film (only a minor). So I am thinking about history. This semester I am just getting some of my requirements out of the way.

    If I may ask: Why did you choose that university if it did not offer the major you wanted?

    When I was applying, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do - I was considering history and Japanese and figured I could go to grad school for film. But once I got here, I realized that the only thing I want to do is film. The rest just makes me feel worthless. Plus, it was between Tufts and Georgetown, and Georgetown was too far away for me (D.C.).
