Bachelors or Masters, we'll see :\

Sorry bro!!! You'll get him FOR SURE!!! HAHAHA!!!! That SUX!!!

Nah...I'm messing w/ you. Actually, if you do end up doing the criminal justice thing, I'll bet you cash money you take his classes. He's really a great professor...freakin brilliant guy. He's just TOUGH. He expects more than any other professor/teacher I've EVER had. I had him for 3 classes, I think? Anyhow...his name is Dr. Gilbert. If anyone else here is from SA and has gone to UTSA, you will know EXACTLY who I'm talking about!

He's the only professor available for certain CRJ classes. Good luck.

I've heard that clinicals for nursing can sometimes be a pain, mostly the hours.

They finally gave us a light class schedule, I esentially have thursday and friday off, I only have 1 class thursday morning at 8 am, and its psychology 101! Thursday afternoons are set aside for talking to my thesis prof, so its not really a class. Life is good in 4th year.

And we're going to learn all sorts of exciting and complex tasks like putting data into excel and making a sum. And all this in an 8:00 AM class. Yay!

Hell, all my majors for my Bachelors were like that. They treated the classes just like a JOB... You received two excused absences with a formal typed note explaining your absence, and it better have to deal with interviewing someone for a project related towards the class. After that your grade was dropped a full grade for every unexcused absence… Thus, if you had an A it dropped to an A-…

Yeah, I reckon I will be finding out soon! haha A lot of the stuff in the first semester is basic CNA stuff, and since I am already a CNA I should breeze right through that. And we'll start practicing IV shots and IM shots... So that will be fun!

Well I got back from classes today and it seems I'm going to hate physics a lot. The Professor declared all assignments will be due at 7:05 A.M (an hour before class starts) b/c she said she wasn't a night person. I'm not to thrilled about going back to campus at 7:30 at night just to take the exams either. According to the Schedule the exam will end around 9 P.m at night. At times like this I really wished I had the 5th Gen Camaro so I could just listen to the revving of the engine .

That sucks, I had a morning person for a prof last semester. we had a quiz every friday at 8 am, after having class till 11 pm the previous night. She didn't want to move them to the 9:30am class on wednesdays

I am DEFINITELY not a morning person! BLEH!!

I'm just glad that I should be graduating next December. That'll give me a chance to save up some money for the Camaro.

I love college, but I hate school.
