adventurechick 0 #1 December 13, 2006 This semester I kinda slacked in school and would skip class a lil bit for jumping/boogies. Even with all of my missed class, I was able to pull off all B's and A's!! All I can say is thank god I am not an engineering major!!

kris2extreme 0 #8 December 13, 2006 I had really really really bad senioritis this semester. Pretty much every project/test/presentation I had due this semester was on a Monday... and I did nothing but jump or work on weekends all this semester. I also skipped approximately 1/3rd of all my classes this semester. I managed an A, a few C's, and a D. All I can say is thank god I am done with on-campus classes. All I have to do is finish up my correspondence course and they can mail me my diploma for all I care. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But still, you made it this far, don't let us distract you from your goal. Then again, I do love to spend time with you on the weekends - so, letus know if we can help you with the classes so you can get your diploma AND skydive!Because life is an adventure - it may not be the one you planned, but then it wouldn't be an adventure!

LyraM45 0 #11 December 13, 2006 People make fun of all the psychology and business majors at my school becuase they take easy classes and get out of here in four years. so yes....you are lucky you're not in engineering classes. Next semester will be my second time taking thermodynamics. Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Next semester will be my second time taking thermodynamics. I was talking to a friend who was taking Elem Ed. She had a close that composed entirely of memorizing 50 stories and taking a test. Re-tests are ok. She was describing the class to me and my son said, "Dad, my book has 75 stories. Could I take that class?" (Actually, he had heard the stories and knew them by heart) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Engineering majors are great... but if I was an engineerging major and skipped the same amount of class that I did this year, there is no way I would have passed. It's doable... I've skipped probably 30-40% of all my classes so I can go jump off stuff, but you just have to maintain the balance Unfortunately this means reading in the hotel room, in the car on the way to wherever, and very little sleep. Finals week for me was Sat-Tues. Drove 10 hours, made 1 jump, 1 tree rescue, and slept about 15 hours from Thurs-Tues. It's doable, but it's fucking rough. Since 11am on Tuesday to now (45 hours), I've slept for 35. My body doesn't like me anymore A waddling elephant seal is the cutest thing in the entire world. -TJ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
