To kill myself or not to kill myself?
During my last semester in Berkeley, I regretted not taking many courses. I never got to take social psych by one of the famed professors. I never got to take a marketing course in Haas. I never took the female sexuality course or the b00bies course. I never took an art class. I never took Japanese or Latin. I never took a creative writing course. I don\’t know how to do darkroom.
So it\’s class registration now. I am technically a part-time student and am supposed to take only 2 classes. But right now I am \”registered\” for 42 units which is 4 classes for next semester. And it\’s all because I don\’t want to regret not taking a course. My part-time job is supposed to be 20 hours/week. So that equals 42+20 = 62 hours of work per week. Sounds about right?
On another note, it\’s troubling how society places so much emphasis on pairs. When you go to a restaurant, the server will look at you funny if you ask for a table for one. \”Are you waiting for somebody? Can you use your extra chair?\” Dancing was made for only pairs. And why do people look at me funny when I decided to get a twin bed (because a bed any bigger would not fit in my room…) Why do toasters come with two slots? What happened to being an inDUHdual???
b00bies course??? You have piqued my curiousity. Hmm, I have yet to hear of such things. Ahhh, I feel your pain…I want to take everything in every department…of which will never happen and of which I will regret. Oh oh the frustration. What if i\’m passing up my lifelong passion?? the one hope at happiness I\’ve been searching for all these YEARS??!! Ahhhhh…well.
And *nods* screw societal pairing. We are strong, independent women and we don\’t need another (uglier) half to make us whole. w00t.
I\’d be a hypocrite to say it wouldn\’t be nice though… =P
