I am sitting here cross referencing my major through UCF's website and what classes I can take at the community college level.

this term I need to take chemistry, trig, ethics, and some other class so I am on track. I am thinking black and white photography on monday from 1-4:50pm
but all of the other classes are Tuesday, Thursday classes. Plus Chemistry is a ***** on my schedule, it takes up from 10 am to 2:50 on tuesdays and thursdays 10-12:50. Which screws up my Tuesday with ethics and trig

so, I look to the Lakeland campus and there is a chem on monday and wednesday, 12-4:50 on monday and 12-2:50 on wednesdays.

so here is what I am thinking

Mondays and Wednesdays I drive the 40 miles to Lakeland for Chem and just chem

Tuesdays and thursdays I can drive to winter haven, just 24 miles (one way, both are one way distances) for trig, ethics and photography

but stupid strikes again. If I go to lakeland for chem on MW then photography is out since its monday 1-4:50 and that ***** chem is in the way

ok so back to the drawing board...

I notice that I need Literature 101.. ok easy, I can take that T and R at 8-9:50 am in winter haven

and then ethics at 11-11:50

then trig at 12:30-1:45 T and R

and then add chem at 10-11:15 as well as chem on tuesday 12-2:50 n tuesdays for labs... but then... trig is out again

ok ok so where to look now


It does appear there is a "hybrid" class which is like an online class with human interaction?? which would soo open up my schedule for chem this term, but I hate online classes...
but it says Mymathlab, software that goes with the book[which is a very good learning tool, it helped me alot in algebra] is basically where all of the homework is based and a lot of instruction revolves around it.

so.. here is my proposed fall schedule

LIT100 14219 8:00-9:15 T&R
CHM1045C 13858 10:-11:15 T and R
12:00-2:50 on T
MAC1114 14247

crap.. ethics is out, again... ok what to replace it with from that one list... I can do the photography class( I have to pick one class out of like 20 to satisfy some additional requirements... two are solid classes .. frign calc1 with physics and cal2 with physics.. which I need calc 1 and calc 2 which are a fcuking year away)

so... I can do the Monday photography class and leave one easy class for next term that way I do not have to drive 80 miles a day for one lame ass chem class.

I have been told I can take trig and pre calc at the same time but it would be very hard and not recommended.. which leaves me not taking it.


which also leaves me with 4 days a week to work and I am going for that new job at Disney, the photography job.. interview is on Thursday. If I get the job I will need two scheduled days and I can pick up shifts as I please.. I like to leave Saturdays free for car shows and car stuff.. so

I can work Wednesdays and Fridays as my set days and pick up shifts.

ok.. my new proposed schedule



LIT100 14219 8:00-9:15 T&R
CHM1045C 13858 10:-11:15 T and R

12:00-2:50 on T
MAC1114 14247

PGY1100C 14440 1:00-4:50 M

which leaves me with


pre calc, chem 2, ethics, and some other BS classes for the spring

with three days of class, 48 miles a day round trip yields me 144 miles a week going to school

disney is 17 miles away, 34 miles round trip X a minimum of 2 days a week yields 68 miles and with 4 days 136 miles

at 2 days of work with 3 days of school nets me 212 miles a week, which is within my average weekly mileage

4 days work 3 days school nets 280 miles... not bad and all of my driving is highway based so at an average mpg of 26 mpg I will need, at least 11 gallons of diesel a week and at $4.69 that is $50 a week +/- any stupid non school or work driving I do....

starting wages for the photography job at disney is $9.30 plus every hour after 8 during your daily shift is time and a half, my shifts will be 10 or 12 hours a day that I work so... compared to publix, working 8 hours a day, at $8.75, I come out ahead in more ways than one than switching to disney. the perks, the people, the experience, the usual crap that goes with any job, is better than what I am experiencing as a put box on shelf guy....Plus... Plus, since eagle-co's wife is also a photographer, and if I get the job at a water park, we can commute together, thus saving fuel for the both of us....

it works, it works?.. bah. I spare no expense for education, time on the other hand, is a pita to spare

this would have worked better if I had a giant white board to write things out.. anyways.. have fun understanding my ramblings




I think.. waaaaaay to critically


crap.. the photography class is only two hours, I need 12 hours to get back on my parents insurance policy.. crap

back to the drawing board......

I can take World Mythology on tuesdays 6:30-9:30 PM!!!

I also need to see if I can just skip trig and go to pre calc... the only prereq is college algebra....crap the F6 key on my laptop just fell off.. gaay

I can just bite the bullet and take a 3 hour class, one day a week, on thursdays... that way I do have insurance, better insurance, than what I have now
