This semester was a learning experience. I had to sign up for all my classes and figure out my loans by myself and the school wasnt the best of help. I called them everyday wondering about my information because some was needed and hadnt been recieved by them yet. In the end they said they still havnt recieved it and that it was okay they didnt need the information to give me my loans anyways, which was very aggravating. I learned to be on the office and to make sure my stuff is done and if it wasnt to keep calling until it is figure out.
Something else i have learned is that I am on the world team for karate. This means that in two years I will go to Calgary for the tournament. It is not the olympics but it is a big deal to me and everyone that is in the same karate as me. Since i am on the team i will have to start training a little bit more. I dont come that much anymore becuase i am at school and i need to study to get a good grade and karate is too time consuming. This bothers my instructors but i cant help it, I will not give up a good grade for going to class because its not like i get paid to be there and school is an investment in my future.
One of the hardest classes i have is chemistry. I learned that there is lower chemistry classes, but since i took chemistry in high school i got placed in chemistry 134 when i think i should have taken chem-100. This class is hard to grasp sometimes and i think it moves a little to fast for me, so i should have taken a lower level chem class first. I have gotten use to the pace a little but only becuase the chapters we are covering are easier to understand than the previous ones. They do not tie together yet. If i could go back i would have taken a lower level first, i dont care about the cost. i need go grades it doesnt matter how long it takes me to get there.
