Checking In

I haven't posted for awhile, and now is a good time, I suppose. I've really been concentrating on getting through this latest semester of school with a 4.0 gpa. It's been harder than I thought at some points, and easier at others.

American National Government is a really frustrating course. I can't quite put my finger on why. Is it because I don't find our government interesting? Is it because the instructor offers no "fun" activities, instead having us write and write and write some more? I don't know what it is, but this is the class I've hard the most trouble with. I'm not cut out for the world of politics, whatever the reason.

Psychology of Human Relations has been cool. I still plan on Psychology being my major, so already I know its something I enjoy. The instructor does a good job with lectures as well and invites class participation. Not a horrible class for 7:30 am.

College Algebra hasn't been a bad class, just really challenging. I spend a lot of my time studying on this class. It is a constant struggle not only to learn the lesson in front of me, but also to see how this lesson fits in with every lesson I've learned before. The instructor makes all the difference in this class as well. He is very available for assistance when I'm having problems with the course material.

The real gem has been Cultural Anthropology and Human Diversity. The guy that teaches this class cracks me the hell up. He doesn't get off subject and just start talking about anything either, he actually makes the course material exciting and fun. MATC got a deal on this guy, no matter what they pay him.

Finals are next week. I have two of my three projects done, my second to last exam for College Algebra today, and one comprehensive final exam to study for. Psychology and Anthropology are A's. I'm comfortable saying that. I'm pretty sure about College Algebra as well. American National Government is a coin toss between an A and a B at this point. We'll see what we see, I guess.
