Anyway, continuing where I left off. So right now I'm just taking the Econ class, which is just Friday mornings and seems dead easy. I did reasonably well in Econ back in AcDec (wasn't my best event, but I could manage unembarrassing scores), and this is macro, which I found infinitely preferable to micro. The other classes I found are half-session classes, so they don't start until after spring break. (Intro Sociology and Intro Philosophy, in case you were wondering.) So I don't have to start hijacking my schedule just yet, which was a major concern for signing up to start classes right away. Even the big potential problem has been averted, as there is no class next Friday. As in, the day after Valentine's Day. I'm very, very happy about that one.
The best part is that, since Cypress is on a semester system, these classes each count as the listed three units, despite none of them being a full semester long. That gives me a total of nine units, and I need twelve to return to Pomona. I'm going to be taking at least three units over the summer, six if I can manage. So I'm going to be petitioning Academic Affairs to clear me to return to Pomona before I've completed the 12 units, contingent on me actually finishing the summer classes. I'm also going to be heading back up to campus to meet with the English department about writing my Wonderland thesis next year, because I'm actually really interested by the material, and I'd rather not take two seminars. They also futzed with the English major before I left, so I need to talk to someone about that and see whether it would be best to take the old set of requirements or the new.
Oh, and it looks like they added dates for more cruises, so it looks like we'll be taking a three day trip to Ensenada over fall break. The only potential problem is that it would be the week before Meghan's wedding, so it's a lot of money to be spending all at once. But most of that money would be spent in advance, and we probably won't be spending much money in Colorado anyway. It may come to me getting a second job to actually pay for all this shit, but we'll see.
I now have about half an hour to kill before I head to work, so I'm probably going to poke around looking for more ways to bring in some extra cash. Or I might check in on my WoW characters, we'll have to see.
