and for some unknown reason i signed up for a 7:30 am class... first time since freshman year (im in my 4th year now) that ive taken a class before 11am. i made it both days so far... but damn.. why chris why. and to top things off i went and priced books for my 4 classes... all 6 books i need will cost me ~650. im gonna use them 4 or 5 times maybe and then never look at em again.

/end bitching

other than that, im glad to be back in school

Ouch man. My earliest class was a 9am body and chassis repair class. It was ridiculous to wake up that early and then have the instructor tell you that the class didn't really prepare you to do any actual work. Many times he'd run out of stuff to talk about for the day and instead of letting us go early, he'd just ramble on about bullshit for 10 or 15 minutes. Now my earliest class is noon.

i am, earliest class is 8:10 am on T/TH. M/W its 9:10am, and thank god nothing on friday. no matter how early it is, its better than having to be at work at 6am for the stinkin military.

so whats everyone's major/certificate/whatever you call it?

I hate that shit, too. I feel like I'm wasting all my time taking classes like Art History, Music Appreciation, and/or Women's Studies. Because...ya know...that'll help in the automotive world.

im in college
i goto to culinary school
im dueling majors, A.S in Culinary arts, with another A.S in Baking and Pattiserie, also in a moth going for my bacheolors in HRM, and when i finish the Cooking portion im taking the degrees and futhering the information into a Masters of Food Science, which later down the road i would like to turn that into a Docterate

also have gone to school for ASE certification, but the school was discombobulated due to a tornado that leveled the building, and they refunded us our money for the classes.
(since ASE is a certificate, if i choose to take it again i can start where i left off, but right now i am with my mecp cert, which expires in like 3 months.

i took advantage of free money (grants, Scholarships, and VA to help pay for schooling), also took a sit load of loand out and just consolidated them into one loan.
