SCHOOL

This is old news from Spring of 1999, but I like to keep it up to remember my crazy schedule my last year of school. I'll update it with a photo of my diploma soon!

As you probably know, since you probably know me, I am a fourth-year student at UC San Diego. Go Tritons! My major is "General Biology." Doesn't that sound like I am really smart? School is going well because I am finally done with all my dumb G.E.s. I no longer have to take classes to fullfil my "Be one with the environment" requirement.

All I have left to take for my last two quarters here is upper-division biology classes. How terrible is that? Actually, I am not doing too bad considering how loud everyone screams when I tell them what classes I am taking.

So what are my classes?

BIEB 100 (Biometry)
This class is okay. It is basically doing statistical tests on biological data. It is pretty easy because I already took a statistics class a few quarters back, so it is basically review. Not the most exciting class, but not too hard either.
BIEB 120 (General Ecology)
I thought this class was going to be really cool. You know, learning about bunnies and where they live and how come bunnies that live in the Arctic can't live on the equator. Unfortunately, it turned out to be all algebra and calculus. Can you believe it? I haven't taken a math class for years! So, this class isn't the easiest or the most fun. Oh well, you can't win them all.
BIEB 166 (Animal Communication)
This is my most interesting class. The time goes by pretty quickly and we get to learn pretty interesting things. The tests aren't even that bad. Overall, I give this class an A. (I hope I get an A, too.)
BI__ 110 (Cell Biology)
This is my worst class for taking notes in. The professor doesn't write anything down, so you basically have to listen to every word he says while writing it down without getting confused for an hour and a half. Ugg!
Music 95A? (Gospel Choir)
Ahh! Another music class! Guess what we get to do. SING!
Duke Ellington (A one-unit seminar)
This is a very interesting class. The only problem is that everyone in it already knows about a million things about Ellington and I know about two. So I get to feel really dumb when we have discussions in class. Oh well, I need the unit to graduate. Plus we get to listen to cool music played by our teacher and some members of the class.

That's it! It's a lot of classes, don't you think? (total = 20 units!)
