The perpetual student
....seriously, why did I decide to go back to school again? Oh yeah, so I didn't have to work crappy hours and to get paid more money. Right. Okay, that all makes good sense. Here's what makes no sense whatsoever. Why the heck do I need to take MUSIC APPRECIATION to be a Nurse Practitioner? And if I AM taking said, Music Appreciation and my instructor knows that 99.9% of us are not taking this class because we are MUSIC majors but because it meets our Arts requirement, then WHY does he take this class so seriously? I mean do I need to know what a time measure is and what a quarter note looks like to be good at Nursing? I think not. I thought the class would be listening to some music, identifying some pieces, learning about composers, blah blah...but I did not sign up to learn to read music or pick out a clarinet as the solo instrument in a concerto. BLAH! I can hear the do-gooders now...but Christy, this will make you a much more "well-rounded" individual. BLAH BLAH BLAH! :) Can you tell I don't care for Music Appreciation so far? Oh, and my US Gov teacher seems to have a bee in his bonnet. My other 3 classes are cake. Can't wait to get through the preliminaries and get back to my medical studies. I loved all of my classes in nursing school! Who'da thought that medicine would end up being my passion?

Awww sorry you hate your MA class so much. It totally sounds like something I would love but I would totally hate to have to take a class on something that I didn't.
As for your comment on my blog, sadly I DO think it's gone. The rolemodels these girls are given are people like Paris Hilton, Nicole Richy and the Olsen Twins. Girls who are body-obsessed and vapid and maybe they have brains but that isn't the part that they show to the public. It's their va-jay-jays. Girl, I have a dd going into her teens very soon and I'm wondering WHAT HAPPENED?!
