Ive made a decision

[Veronica]

I am gonna go back to school and finish my degree. I only have 3 semesters left and I will be graduated! Im kindof worried about time, but I know I can do it if I put my mind to it. Maybe just take 2 classes a semester for alittle while. Im sure it will take more than three semesters for it, but that is what I will have to do. I figure that I can do my homework at work (they wont mind when we arent busy) and Ill just get less sleep.

Think I can do it? I want to do better with my life.

Go for it! Nothing ventured, nothing gained, we're all behind you!

You could even try taking just one class at a time until you feel comfortable and then take two. What would your degree be in?

 

[Veronica]

I was going for teaching. Im gonna continue with that for now.

Are there no online classes available for what you have left to take?

I'm taking 2 online and 1 in class right now, and it's working out great (timewise).

 

[Veronica]

In the school that I am having to attend (because my credits wont transfer and I am NOT doing all that shit over..) they dont offer online classes. Im gonna call up there in a minute and check though. I would much rather take online classes and only have to attend a class once in a while.

You can do it. It will be the best investment (time-wise and financially) that you can ever make.

Hey, for a little aggravation .. it may be worth switching for the time you have remaining. I wish I could take all my classes online :lol:.

I have to log on at least twice a week, and check e-mail and the discussionboard. Make a post pertaining to the weeks topic on the discussion board, reply to at least 2 students, and do whatever work is posted on the syllabus for that week.

With me taking CAD in class .. being able to do the other 2 whenever I want to (ike say, at 1am like I did last night for my power point class) is great.

Some classes are fine online, others that are in your major are not. I can't see learning computer science online. I'd rather hear a stuffy professor and have access to them in their office than thru email, but thats just me. Now, taking that writing class or something silly like that, online is definitely the way to go. Too bad I couldn't take that speech class online, lol.

 

[Veronica]

yeah, I agree there.

Well, I just called the school and they said that I am gonna have to wait until oct 15 to register since this semester JUST STARTED and plus they have to wait on my transcripts.

 

[Veronica]

I hate the speech class. That was the next class I was taking (i even bought the books for it.. ) The damn class though scares the shit out of me. lol.

I wouldnt mind taking english online or even history and stuff like that.. But I dont want to take math online. Unless its easy math and Im all out of the easy math classes.. lol

 

[SRC]

I took one math class in class and one online .. I did better online because I didn't have to sit there and listen to all the reatards who couldn't count put weird theories of how to do problems in my head. The books they give you for online math are very thorough.

they offer speech online where I go .. but you have to meet at the end to give a speech lol

 

[Veronica]

I can't see taking an online college Algebra or calculus class. I need to see someone figure out the problem in front of me before I actually trust that it is solved the way they say to solve it. Accounting online sure. Maybe even statistics. Other than that, what are you paying for then? You're not supposed to just go to college for a piece of paper, you're supposed to soak up the knowledge so you'll actually be smarter when starting that "real" job.

 

[GuesSAngel]

good for you V. I think it's a good decision I hope to do the same thing next year with all online courses.

And speech class isn't that bad don't be scared.

 

[Charmer]

Way to go, V!

 

[Sneakiecat]

I'd much rather take speech again than philosophy. I hated that class with a passion.

I still have a 4.0 GPA .. I think I'm doing ok in the smarts/knowledge department .. despite my online class taking.

 

[GuesSAngel]

haha 'real' job...didn't know you needed an education for a 'real' job

 

[Veronica]
