Blue Skies
Due to my laziness/uncooperation I only took three credits worth of classes last year. That is I bad thing to do. I know. And this year, if I finish doing these health packets, I will only have done five credits worth of classes. Not as bad but it should be six, if not more to make up for the year before. Needless to say I was a bit worried about graduating on time. I'm a laid-back sort of person so I wasn't losing any sleep over it, but I was uneasy.
Now things are looking up. And no just up but, dare I say it?, fun. Somewhat anyway, as much as school can be fun. I did the math, and because 5 college credits are worth a full high school credit all I have to do is pass three classes a quarter and I will have all the credits I need in five quarters. And that's not all, after I get all the annoying classes that are required like L.A. I will still need to get 5.5 H.S credits of electives. That means I can take anything I want (in theory anyway)for two quarters, if I do the other things first. This is not taking in to account that I would still have a quarter left of running start and no more classes needed. All that is assuming that the classes I take would be 5 college credits for all those classes.
The classes I end up taking will be dependent on what is offered at the H.O.M.E program and at BCC. I don't know what I want to get a degree in or what classes I want to take but I was looking last night at the types of classes they offer and there was this one class on American Humor that looked neat. Who knows if they'll offer it when I can/want to take it but if they do I might.
I'm just glad I probably won't have to go back to the H.O.M.E program. It isn't really bad just really easy and boring. I should really finish looking at the drivers book thing so I can take the test to get my learners permit. I t would be a lot easier to pick the classes I want when I'm not tied to other people driving me there. Anyway I hope this qualifies as real content and not just the boring stuff I've been posting on recently.

Getting your driver's licence would be really nice. I'm trying to get mine so that I have options next year. I believe Rich is going to graduate summer quarter and since he's my primary ride to school things could be bad.
I would suggest picking a random degree. Your high school counselor can fit almost any class on that degree to fit whatever you need to take for your HS diploma.
