this is hard... or rather, bitter sweet.
if you are reading this blog, you are probably a member of this class... which makes me wonder... why are you reading this blog? class is over, sadly, but i have to say this was probably one of my favorite classes at au so far. i can't get over the atmosphere created in the class by our teacher, nicole melander. it seems that i am not the only one that loved her teaching style and what she taught; i found out recently that one of my fraternity brothers that recently graduated is creating a class with her for the fall of 2008. i am definitely excited for that class and hope to be lucky enough to take it.
i say this experience is bitter sweet for several reasons. the most obvious, of course, is the fact that i won't be heading over to sis at 11:20 on wednesdays anymore... no awesome middle of the week class to help the week go over the 'bump' easier... i will definitely miss that class... the 'sweet-ness' of the bitter sweet comment is two-fold: one, i learned a lot and developed an interest and a second major :) the second side of the 'fold' is that i signed up to be her (nicole melander) student again next semester in itec 200... kinda going down in course levels... i am definitely looking forward to that class!

on that note (the course levels), this school has disappointed me in regards to its communication program (this class is part of the business program, which i recently became a part of as a double major). i was taking 300 level classes (and even testing out of one) as a freshman. this semester, i am taking a graduate level (course level in the 600's) course as well as 400 level courses... 'w' 't' 'f' mate. not cool. i am not learning much, not as a fault of the teachers (they are wonderful btw... i highly recommend K "kylos" Brannon for Comm courses dealing with Photoshop and After Effects), but a fault of the school's offerings. as a result, i am working 35 hours a week at Apple, Inc. in Bethesda as well as starting a Double Major with a Triple specialization (but I might streamline it and reduce it to a double spec).
o well.

i think i might keep up this blog thing. it is kinda cool to just post to the world not knowing who or what (pets read?) is reading this.

i am excited to go home for a month and see friends and family. no parties tho, right dad ;)

thanks to all reading this, and i plan on re-designing this blog and keeping it going posting daily or weekly or however i feel at the time... probably the latter.

Proffer,
I believe by the end of the year you should also shoot for:
1) Climbing mount everest
2) Completing a triathalon
3) Becoming a professor at an Ivy League School
4) Finding a cure for AIDS
5) Finally...being promoted to the CEO of Apple
