11 more to go....

After this semester I will have a mere 11 classes to take, at least I hope. According to all the papers I have I only need 11 more required classes in order to graduate with an English degree. I will be taking another 4 classes next semester which brings my total down to 7. If I want, I can choose to double the pressure and take 5 classes next semester and possibly finish over the summer. I would have to take summer I and II classes, 3 classes each half. That is considered full time during the summer. That would suck. However, I don't know what classes will be offered over the summer or next fall yet, so I'm not sure what to do. I hope they offer French I and II during the summer, or I will have to go next fall and winter. I'm so sick of school right now. Mainly one teacher who is a large bag of douche with an arrogant attitude. He likes to give a self-fulling speech each class.

Sometimes I wish I did my own thing right from the beginning of college. I've loved Enlgish since grade school, but was told there are no jobs for English majors unless you're a teacher. I don't believe that and neither do my advisors. Joining the teaching program screwed me over. I took classes I don't need and lost my love for school. I used to love going to school! I was such a nerd...I guess I still am. I am happier in the CASL program but unhappy about how long it's taking me to finish. I want to be done and move on with life. I want to find a career, pay my credit card bills, and buy a house. I guess that will all happen just not as soon as I want it to.
