Happy New Years! So far 2010 has been a pretty good year. School started last week, and it is definitely going to be a challenging semester, but I am looking forward to it. I'm well into my major and minor, and I love both of them! Here's the schedule:
Public Relations: My professor has worked in the field of PR for over 30 years, so he knows his stuff. He's very professional and expects the same from us, and I'm ready for it.
Victorian Literature: I LOVE this class! We're reading Dickens, Browning, and many other Victorian writers. This is my favorite literary time period, so I'm excited for this one.
Humanities: I LOVE art, and this class has been great. Right now we're studying the Northern Renaissance (Germany, the Netherlands, etc.), and I love the religious symbolism in the paintings we've looked at. Plus we get to study Hamlet!
Persuasive Writing: This class is going to be fun. I'm a bit of an arguer, so I'm excited to write some papers where I get to persuade people why they should do something. Plus it will help me with my PR class a lot.
And finally, a Linguistics class titled "Modern American Usage." Not my favorite class ever, but it's going to help me in my editing emphasis.
So that plus 20 hours of work per week and lots of homework is going to keep me nice and busy. I love BYU!
what an awesome semester for you! can we do lunch or dinner or just hang out for a little bit sometime soon?
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for the story about your trip to NJ and the PROPOSAL!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhy have I not read your blog before? :(
ReplyDeleteI want to hear about your victorian lit class. That is my favorite stuff too. Have you read Thackeray? BRILLIANT social commentary-so sarcastic too. You should join our book club.
Okay, YES I want in on your book club! We haven't read any Thackeray yet but we will in a few months. Have you read Vanity Fair? One of my FAVORITE books!
