So I decided I wanted to enrol today, mostly on the grounds that if I don't make myself do it today, right now, before another day passes, it'll never never happen and I'll have to spend fifteen hours a day at uni waiting in queues again, and that does not do it for me. So. I came home from work and sat down and enlisted my mother and wrote a lot all over a thousand sheets of paper, and I came to this conclusion: I love english and I'm good at it, but every single English class that I actually want to take this year clashes with something else I want to take. if I have a year off doing English, I know for a fact I'm not going to find it difficult to go back to; english also has a lot of good summer papers that I wouldn't mind doing. On the other hand, if I go back to maths after a year, I am going to find it really hard, and maths summer papers suck.

So this is what I'm doing: I'm not dropping my maths major just yet. I might decide to at the end of the year, but if I do I'll be confident that it wasn't because I was lazy and it wasn't because I was sick. Instead, what I'm doing is this:

Semester 1 2007
ENGL231: Poetry Writing
MATH251: Linear Systems
MATH261: Multivariate Calculus
PHIL321: Ethics (if I get accepted, if not, Philosophy of Science)

Semester 2 2007
PHIL305: Philosophical Logic
PHIL240: Biomedical Ethics
MATH252: Matrix Algebra

Summer 07/08
ENGL320: Literary theory
+ possibly another english summer paper

Semester 1 2008
ENGL313: Cultures of the Supernatural (unless they don't offer it in which case I will KILL THINGS.)
+possibly some other english paper
+PHIL323: Philosophy of Science

AND THEN go up to Vic, finish off Maths having done quite a bit of it and look at postgrad in... whatever I feel like, really.

I completed my application to enrol, my courses don't clash and my workload - 133 points - is probably the lowest I've ever had and even got green lighted by the website. It's all through and shiny.

Okay, world, hit me with it, I'm ready.

Of course, go for it.

Yeah, it would be the kind of thing that's really dependant on the lecturer, but I'm hopeful. :D

I will go ahead and add you now.
It pretty easy here - not sure how it will be there but i got my first essay back and scored an A without too much effort haha. Maths plus arts sounds like a real interesting combination - you got the best of both sides of the brain haha.

That's the idea, anyway. :)
