better late than... later

i have finally made up my mind and enrolled in 4 courses. well, i obviously did not get everything i wanted, because my stupid head thought: "oh yeah? i am a scholar, so i would always get what i want". the time passed by and suddenly (i.e. yesterday) i woke up and checked the enrollment status. my preferable classes (psychology) were all closed. "shit!" i got quite emotional and tried to take the opportunity and make up my schedule in the most interesting way i could.

so i take spanish ab initio, because since i started the junior high school i wanted to learn that language, but there was no such opportunity. to get some latino friends (and free conversations...) i take latin american history (1490-1810). that continent, those people and their culture has intrigued me a lot. therefore i decided to leanr more. why not? the third course is philosophy: knowledge and reality. that also for fun and out of interest which i had never had chance to fullfil. additionally that course covers some sort of writing requirment, which (obviously) i am not bothered about yet. the last course is intro to communications.

although i have enough numbers of credit now to be considered a full-time student on an entrance scholarship, i think i should take one more course to make the second term easier. i shall see what can i take. all the free courses now are either afternoon course or science/math courses (yeah, who the heck takes math on the university level!?)

so after all i believe there is some angel watching me. she is for certain. it didn't turn out as bad as one could expected. i am interested in everything i am taking and by the time i am writing this post all of the mentioned courses are closed. not bad, i tell you. there must be an angel involved...
