I need feminism because I’m sick of being the only woman in my physics class.
I’m the professor.
Dear professor! I’ll be taking engineering physics later!

Can I Help You?
As much as I’m not into space, I still love the people and humor who are.

Whoa. The MLA has officially devised a standard format to cite tweets in an academic paper. Sign of the times.
My goodness I want to cite tweets left and right everywhere.

Diary of a would be ME: Researching Take Home Exams.
I have to do a research paper for my English Comp I class in a week or so, Mark wants a ~current controversial topic~. There are some things that are simply off the table:
- Weed/Marijuana/Pot
- Abortion
- Guns
- Drinking Age
- Stem Cell Research
- Cloning
What’s on the table? Well, we tried covering that in class and he really seemed adamant on talking about Immigration for a while. Personally, I can’t write an unbiased research paper on immigration. It cuts way too close to home. I also don’t know how I feel about the word “illegal”, though I’ll admit it is a word that I use. Then we discussed Education very briefly. I mean, maybe 30 seconds of Education discussion. Uh, fracking was mentioned.
I’m thinking Erin’s Law (Illinois SB2843) or something involved in Sex.
Also: I’ve kind of been pushed into singing in class on Monday as part of my final. I’m most likely going to do it a cappella just so I don’t have to worry about singing in a slightly lower key. Can’t decide between “Volver, Volver” and “Tu Solo Tu”, starting to practice each song just to find what it is exactly I sing better. Hell, I may even record “Sunrise” from In the Heights.
I totally forgot to mention my take home exam for Psych. It was crap. I hated it. I really hope I never have to do another take home exam again. I strongly prefer exams that I can study for and just take without having to give mini-essays for the answer.
I don’t know. I want to do so much. Anyway, I have to finish working on this essay for my English Comp class.
Diary of a would be ME: Pre-Calc(ulated movements)
A lot’s happened since I last wrote you, dear internet. I’m maintaining my grades, though I’d like them to be higher. I might try studying more than I am now.
So my friends at school have been fantastic. Okay. This is what my college looks like:
It’s essentially a high school refurbished. Well, actually it’ll be undergoing some refurbishing in 2013.
Anyway, I have some great friends in each of my classes. Cat told me about talking to David Woods in the Mathematics department about my classes, he was really the beginning of a great help. I finally also found a counselor who is willing to discuss my classes with me.
See, I’ve compiled a list of the classes I need to get the degrees I want. I’d like to write technical papers during my free time in med school.
I’ve had a pretty bad history with my previous counselors. The two I had previously just weren’t as helpful as I wanted them to be. I mean, they weren’t bad necessarily, I was just looking for a sounding board to make sure that I am on the right track. Essentially I was looking for someone who cared and I didn’t seem to get that from them.
My third try at this campus got me Barbara K Chambers and I have to say that she is fantastic. She really seems to care and is super helpful, I’d refer just about any ACC student to her, if the RGC campus is your campus.
Previously, I spoke to an unhelpful man (whose name I won’t include because that just seems downright rude) who simply advised me to talk to someone at UT.
Well, UT did come to the campus and I spoke to Candice C Tirta about classes and transfers to their College of Natural Science. Great thing is that she’s the Biochem advisor. I’m excited. I have people I feel like I can depend on when it comes to getting my schooling done.
I can’t explain how afraid I was that I’d mess things up this early into my classes. I had to actively keep myself from crying a few times when I spoke with Chambers. It’s been hard getting back into school and I finally know what I want and I don’t want it to pass me by.
Anyway, Dr. Woods has helped me get into Pre-Calc to refresh my memory on trig and all of that before Calc, add Chambers and I seem to have a solid team that’s willing to help me. I won’t be letting them down, either.
