Spring Plans

Next quarter isn’t looking too horrible. Here are the classes I want/need to take:

COGS 10 – This one is titled “Cognitive Consequence of Technology” – I’m really excited for this one. I chose this over the COGS1 for the sake of interest.

CSE 30 – Ah, the 30. How I hear so much about you. It is titled “Computer Organization and Systems Programming”, it shall be the bane of my existence, perhaps? Let’s hope not.

CSE 15L - I’ve heard some bad stuff with this “Tools and Techniques Lab”. Hopefully, it’ll be OK. The general consensus is: “You work much too much, too hard for two units.”

MATH 20C – Just continuing along the math chain…

MCWP 50 - This is the Muir Writing course. I heard this involved a lot of reading, and a lot of research. Several different topics are covered, and I’m not really sure which I could write a very long paper on. I’m leaning towards “Memory Spaces” or “Real and Imagined”.

PHYS 2A – This is mechanics. I should really have taken AP Physics – I wouldn’t have to deal with this class otherwise, I think.

I’m thinking that perhaps if this is too much in terms of difficulty, I’ll drop one.

So after this year, I would have completed my Humanities, Social Sciences, Math/Natural Sciences and Muir Writing requirements, hopefully. That will leave either my Fine Arts or Foreign Language requirement left for Muir. I only have to pick one, and I’m leaning towards Foreign Language.

I really should finalize and complete my four-year plan…

Classes and Exhaustion

I have 5 hours worth of classes more after 3:30pm.

I’m going to try and exhaust myself today, so afterwards, I’m headed to the gym to get some running done.

By the time I get home, I should be too sleepy to do anything else – and just fall asleep.

2009

If the world is ever changing then so go humanity with it.

And I hope for 2009 there will be change for the better.

For me, however…

I want to live as if nothing were impossible.

Live with a confidence that’s not afraid of failure, where failure is not a detriment but an asset.

Live in a body weathered by activity and nourished by balance.

Live not too long in any one place, but in many places – making the world my home.

Live with eyes a bit older, wiser, more accepting of all perspectives of life.

Live tactfully, but not too much. Spontaneity is worth a bit of trouble.

Live accepting that all things will sooner or later end – and rejoice when they do.

And finally – live life a bit more caffeinated than before.

Oh, and streak. But that’s a different story.

“Knowing that everything will come to an end, anything is possible.”
