Back in November my philosophy teacher told me about these trees. He said that they are the same tree planted at the
same time but one is different then the others. I am like a red tree . I still want to graduate asap though :) |
The year is winding down. I am almost done as I begin writing this I have finished two out of three classes at my new university. I decided in late November to apply to another school a public university about an half hour from my house. I got in there. Ironically I got into this school way back when I graduated from high school. I would not trade those times at my Second home for anything though.

First day of Spring Quarter |
These first six months of 2015 have been rocky but my life has always been a series of ups and down. January and February were filled with depression as I was not able to go to school because my private school kicked me out. In late March I decided to try something new. I had a great philosophy teacher, B, who encouraged me to drop his class and try the school I got into .
B gave me an incentive for me to finish my BA. B also helped me by telling me about a program called Open University. This is a program at Cal State schools where anyone can pay a fee to take classes. This is what I am doing so I can gain credits that count towards my major before the fall term. Anyone can enroll in Open University there is a form you fill out but there is no need for transcripts or grades. I am so happy that B recommended this program. The only downside is that the units cost more.

I had to go karting for a class project. I made a video which got 100 percent |
I was able to take three classes. Thats right THREE classes or 12 units which means that I went full time. Something I had earn at my private school. Two online classes and one in person class. My behavior in those classes has been great and I have learned a ton. I felt a part of the classes instead of an outsider. I do not feel like a trained seal when i do well on assignments;therefore, I have excelled. The only downside is I had to take a leave from work. I may be able to work again next week though.
What has changed in ten weeks
Confidence and a new found belief in myself that I can finish my BA.
Units After I pass all my classes I will double the upper division units that I took at the private school.
I made a worksheet for a class project.
