is that the high school?

this evening i drove down to lincoln with my parents to see the gross volleyball team play in the finals (they won, by the way). they played at lincoln southwest high school, which we had a good deal of trouble finding. so we're driving down the road looking for a large building with a fairly big parking lot. soon enough, we see a pretty big building with a fair-sized parking lot and my dad says "is that the high school?" as we drive past the front of the building we see what's written on it. it wasn't the high school. it was the state penitentiary.

yea, so i'm searching through the listings on e-bruno and writing up my potential scheduele and i run into a problem. just how am i going to arrange this?! for the past two semesters i've been able to scheduele all my classes on just three days. unfortunately it's just not working that way this time. i pretty much have to fix my scheduele around the writing class i'll be taking (poetry again, ick), which is on a tuesday afternoon. next i need to get started on my foriegn language. unfortunately they only offer elementary spanish on a monday-wednesday-friday scheduele, and each class is about an hour and a half long. now i'm left with thursday as my only day off (which is now officially the day i'm going to have to work on). next on the list is another lit. class and a natural or social science. my advisor recommended horticulture for a natural science, saying it wasn't really heavy on math and stuff, but unfortunately (again) it's not even being offered this next semester. i've always been thinking about taking astronomy, but after reading the descriptions i'm getting skeptical. it sounds awful algebraic. this really shouldn't worry me, as i'm fairly decent at upper-level math. i just don't like it. and i haven't had to do any more math than balancing my checkbook and adding the prices of stuff i have to order from decopac and bakery crafts at work (i actually don't really have to add them all up, i just prefer to. that way i know for sure whether i'm over the $90 and $75 marks where we get free shipping from each company). needless to say that's super-easy math. i also kinda want to take intro. to theater (it sounds fun). then there's the option of taking a social science instead. actually, come to think of it, i don't have to take more than three classes next semester, since the spanish class is worth five and the poetry studio is worth four that makes up the extra three i'd need for a fourth class (we need a minimum of twelve credit hours a semester). eh, i'd rather take four, this way i'll be getting 15 credit hours but it won't feel like it (usually you'd have to take five classes to get 15 hours, you know?)

anyway, i'm starting to ramble... so i'm gonna end this post here
