I think I could write any of these books.
Easily.
ahahahaa.
Trying to decide if I'm gonna drop a class today. Consensus is: probably not. I think I will be too lazy otherwise.
Here's my schedule thus-so-far.
Monday: 1-2:30 (at mita)
Tuesday: 9-12 (at hiyoshi)
Wednesday: 10:45-4:45 with a lunch break from 12-1
Thursday: 2:45-7:40
I really am considering dropping my monday class, but I just found out that it counts for psychology credit so I guess I shouldn't do it. I guess if I don't want to go to school cause I want to take a vacation to Kyoto I can just have my friends sign the class list schedule or something on Mondays.
I'm just feeling so lazy since I really just wanna take a break and do nothing like I feel half of my other friends are doing. Most of my friends have class three to two days a week. It would be SO nice to have monday and friday off. A four day weekend every week?! However, I feel like they are taking bullshit classes because this year doesn't even count for them anyway D: how random and lame.
I guess at least it's good that I know two of my psychology classes will count for me.
Class list:
Monday:
Human Resource Management From A Psychological Perspective (super easy and we never have homework and I think I could probably sleep in the class, heard it's a super easy A) Also we learn a lot of tips about getting hired which I feel is hella important since I was having so much damn trouble with it last year.
***Taking it for a Letter Grade, counts for Psychology Credit***
Tuesday:
Japanese Class from 9-12. I hate going to class early, but at least it's at Hiyoshi and I won't be wasting the day because I will have the rest of the day to do whatever I like!! :) I'll have to go to bed early the night before though but usually that won't be so bad on a Monday night. I also like eating lunch at Hiyoshi campus cause the students are nice. Homework sucks and the quizzes are hard. But I want to learn more Japanese since I'm here. I don't think I'll take Japanese next quarter though. ***taking pass no pass***
Wednesday:
Independent Study 10:45-12 (bleh on the time!!! cause it's at Mita)
I am studying a really interesting topic but I already feel kind of unmotivated. Maybe I want to do it next quarter. I love my mentor though.
Japanese Lit: Pretty cool, pretty easy, just doing a project and we never have homework. I need to find a topic for my project though! I love literature. Need to take a Literature class too.
American Studies: Awesome class, maybe two/three readings per class after the class, but it's not that bad and i don't think the teacher would care if we didn't do it, and a summary each week on the readings. It's a very interesting chill class. Fulfilling the American Studies GE with this one.
Thursday:
Japanese Psychology in Contemporary Japan 2:45-4:15
Don't really like the class and I don't know if it'll count but it should probably count for Culture and Thought as a GE so I think I can make it work.
Culture, Cultural Identity, and Cultural Adjustment: 4:30-6
Cool class, applies to Psychology suprisingly, fun class and interesting material! I think we have to do a group project and that's it. Should be fun and not too bad.
Art Class: I want to do it but I don't really need it. I've been considering auditing, or taking the class pass no pass, or I don't know what, but the field trip we went on was really fun, and I feel like I need a class like this to keep me inspired and keep me going. Also it ends in December and we don't have much shit to do, it's mostly individual work and it's super relaxed, so... i think I will be okay! plus a couple of the thursday classes don't even happen because the teacher is busy or we have field trips. Should be an easy A unless I forget to do something. But I think the teacher is coaxable hahaha. Goes late on Thursdays but I probably could skip if I have something going on. The more I think about it, the more I think I will want to do the work since it is interesting.
There is my class list! And my appraisal based on my laziness schedule. Maybe I think I will be okay. I just don't want to be too stressed out. I want to have a life here too.
