Summer Session
So I awoke early (by Spring Break Standards) to register for Summer session. Previously I had to get the CBA Deans office approval to enroll into TWO cap-stone classes; GM 105, and OPM 101. What I mean by cap-stone I mean that these are the last two classes you must take before graduation. Normally one would take OPM 101 during one regular semester then GM 105 the next. However, since I have accelerated by graduation time the only option for me was to do them both in the Summer. Due to the fact that OPM is only offered once during the summer and I cant take GM before I must have them together.
My first real concern was with time and date. It would require that my TuWeTr (Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday) be packed with nothing but school. Which led into another problem. The big blue box requires that I have a meet a certain availability to maintain employment. (Oh Geez) After talking it over with Manager they felt I still meet those requirements and are willing to work with my schedule especially since its only for six weeks and before holiday season.
Now my current issue is with registration fees. Since California Tax fee's just went up to 9% and since CSUS has been raising those fees. The 6 units I will be taking will cost me over $1000 not including books, & gas.
It will be probably the most grueling six weeks of my life. But it all I feel it is worth it. To be the first on either side of my family to graduate with a Bachelors. Sigh, I cant wait for the day.
Since its still early in the day I will be updating this later on tonight.
Yesterday:
I got off work and decided to waste some time and browse around Recreational Equipment, Inc (REI). Afterward I felt like some Tomato soup and Grilled cheese. I made my way down to Boudin SF.
As I was eating the delicious garlic tomato soup I saw an elderly couple make there way out. They were around the age of my grandparents. The older gentlemen waiting for his lady to get up from her seat, opened the Boudin SF door for her, opened the car door for her and even assisted in putting her seatbelt on. I tell you chivalry is not dead.
What was more interesting is what was happening to my right. A younger aristocrat complaining about her salad. Her F'ing salad. I heard her mention something about the dressing.
Its God's way of contrasting young vs old.
