Don't ask, don't juggle?

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Win

 

[damnromulans]

Obviously all jugglers are those weird creepy incestuous-friend-group-polyamorous people who refuse to wear shoes, jump down whole flights of stairs, and say "woot" in real life.

 

[Zephyrus]

polyamorous.

 

[Srontgorrth]

Ohshi, just checked ratemyprofessors and one of my teachers has a PhD from Harvard and is damn difficult apparently, but a challenge is always good I guess >_>

The bright side is that I don't have to buy a $100+ textbook, just 6 or 7 separate (cheap!) books.

 

[sevag00]

probably because you like JUGGLING YOU HOMO

It's my last day of school tomorrow before the summer holidays start. I'm going to Ireland for a week this Saturday but I have no idea how I'm going to entertain myself for the following five weeks.

 

[unknown]

check out Killarney while you're in Ireland. If you're in Dublin, my favorite pub there is The Celt on Talbot Street...get a pint of Cashel's there and enjoy life

 

[Der Morgenstern]

Anyone try and get a replacement copy of their diploma from college? I managed to lose the one they gave me and McGill are being dicks about sending me a new copy.

 

[Chimaera]

My exam results arrived today. Five As and three Bs. I'm very relieved at the moment.

Ok here are my classes for next semester:

Electronics and Projects I + lab
Circuit Analysis I + lab
Digital Fundamentals
Personal Finance

The personal finance class is a one credit hour class that for whatever reason my school requires. So technically I'm going full-time and working full-time, but after September I'll only have three classes to attend. As of right now, I'm going to school M-F, alternating from two hours one day to four the next. This should be fun...

I'm kinda bummed that I just bought like three books off of Amazon and probably won't be able to read them for a while now. Stupid school.

 

[Srontgorrth]

When do your classes start?

Anyways my schedule is:

The Basic Principles of Psychotherapy
Personality
Intro to Administration of Justice
Individual, Society and Freedom
Honors Orientation (1 credit hour)

And then probably an online math class through the community college.

You're a McGill grad? I'm starting there in a couple weeks. Thoughts on the place?

 

[unknown]

my classes for fall:

Directed studies with a professor doing something related with digital rhetoric
German 101A
and I was supposed to be taking a 20th Century American Lit class, but I don't think I can read 12 novels and work 40 hours a week

British Empire

[unknown]

cool. we can practice our german together

 

[Srontgorrth]

The Honors College at UNLV requires me to take four language classes, and since UNLV doesn't offer much I'll probably take German . I would prefer to learn Russian though.

Bumping this because I'm curious about experiences with undergrad senior projects. I'm considering double majoring in philosophy and math because I want to have top notch logical faculties for graduate studies; but I don't know how ambitious doing something like that actually is. I know mathematics is a demanding major and I've only just started exploring the pure side of it, so I'm thinking that writing a thesis in both that and philosophy might be a bit too much.

I don't know, anyone care to share how much of their life was taken up by one such project? I'm sure there are plenty of variables I skipped over, but I did so because I figured that they would be mentioned anyway.
