"Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings...!"

Calloo, Callay, come run away, with the cabbages and kings!

SO...Dual Enrollment. Fun stuff. This will be my third week taking college classes and I'm still not sure what to make of it. A part of me likes how it is going, and then another part of me wants more.
For instance English. Now I love English. It is one of my passions. I could write about nearly anything, although creative writing is my favorite. So taking this class wasn't that hard for me, I looked forward to it. I have a young professor who is in the process of getting her second degree I believe. She's an okay teacher. I just wish she would put more passion into the class, more, I don't know...OOOMPH! More personality. We go through a lot of power points each class. I want her to share more of her experience with us I guess.
We have one assignment so far, an Autobiography due on the 14th.
We've done two in class 'papers'. I guess you could say they were like quizzes. I did fine. I just always race the clock because I go into so much detail. :P
Thursday we did one of the most fun activities so far. We split up into groups of three and four and assessed an essay. I liked it because I could interact with the other students, even though I sit next to them every Tuesday and Thursday I don't get to talk with them a lot. This I like! I like activity. I want to see us do something! (and since it's a 7:55AM class anything to get us invigorated helps.) I'm ready for the peer review. Even though it's going to be a little hard to be critiqued. I love and hate being critiqued all at the same time. Because since this is an autobiography, it is probably still close to your heart - since it's about you or an event or a person that impacted you.

My Social Science teacher is a riot. He makes me laugh probably because how he say's things are just so quirky. He's rather easy going and even though he said he wouldn't be doing his lectures from the book....all the power points and conversation are directly from the book. So, on that point again I'm a little frustrated. AND he got REALLY mad at a student in class on Thursday. It was a shocker. The kid got his computer out and had a show down. He almost had to leave the class room. But that's a long story and if you want it all you just have to ask me in person. ;) Over all I wish the classes were more unique. BUT I'm loving duel enrollment so I'll live. :o)

This weekend has been FABULOUS! I'm in VA Beach, VA! I surprised one of my girl friends for her birthday AND knocked out two college visits in the meantime. I'm really happy! (what's better than friends and the beach?!) I don't know what's going to happen, I don't know which college I'll choose. I'll be looking at a lot. But I'm having fun and looking forward to college already. haha

Happy day.
