So, let's say I have two thousand dollars. I don't, but let's just say I do. >.>; (Isn't that tricky wording for ya? X3)
They advertise the tuition as being seven hundred a year. >.>; ... Unless they meant 'two hundred a semester,' in which case I am most royally ********. >.<
I take up fourteen hundred for two years, and that leaves me with six hundred. Now, do I allot all that remains towards fun, or towards more school related stuff?
Just for funsies, I'll over estimate as I usually like to do and say that any books I will be asked to buy for classes will cost up to four hundred dollars. That leaves me with two hundred.
... Two hundred will be alloted forwards stuff for funsies, like buying a guitar. >.>;
I'd buy a keyboard, but because I was so taken with grandpa's new keyboard (Okay, seriously: that thing is ******** awesome... and I love the piano anyway. >.< I'm still technically learning to play a guitar, even though I know the basics of fretting, strumming... I was teaching myself how to do the twang, but I can't quite tune a guitar, and tabs are an alien language to me. I need to learn, people! I WANNA LEARN! DX)...
... BECAUSE I WAS SO TAKEN WITH THAT KEYBOARD... XD
Grandma implied that she might get me one for christmas or my birthday, come that time. >.>; (Well, they're pretty much the same thing-they're only four days apart! DX I'll be out of my teens then. Much mourning for teh Saku Saku. u.u)
But a guitar might have to be all me again. >.>; Just as it was with the recorder... >.< Cause lord knows I didn't understand a word the teacher said when I was like six or seven, and she was trying to teach a whole class of kids how to play a recorder. I was the first to get 'do re mi fa so la ti do' backwards after a night of contemplation equally given to all students, but I just couldn't figure out what note was supposed to be which, or how to do it. Naturally, everyone else understood perfectly. I was always blowing the wrong notes at precisely the exact time that everyone else played the right one. Either that teacher was truly terrible and completely unhelpful, or I was just ninja.
Either way, it says terrible things about one person or the other. XD
I played the piano by ear all my young life, even though drawing was even more innate and available than keybaords or pianos.
Guitars never seemed to be physically around me, and when they were, I just liked to strum them. I could never figure out how guitarists managed to get so many notes out of a guitar when there were only so many strings. Thankfully in high school, the concept of fretting was explained to me, and then I was given visual aid to further ingrain that lesson... so, yeah, I know what I was doing wrong. XD
I learned from it...
... Ugh...
But yes, back to college stuffs.
Chabot's a relative unknown, but it's a half decent school-cheap and it offers a decent variety of classes. I think that even more interesting than that will be the people attending, so I am hoping to make new friends. I'm not going to come onto the campus blowing smoke and honking horns. Instead, I will likely ninja my way in and not talk to anyone unless I absolutely have to, and if that happens I'll be playing the part of the naive, stupid, and directionless beggar when I ask for help. They either take pity on me or they take advantage of me, and I'm smart enough to act as if I didn't realize I'd gotten myself out of said situation before it could get too far. Hopefully, despite being college students, they're not smart enough to realize said form of manipulation. @_@;
Let's just be nice to each other, mmkay? n_n
The classes I really want to take are creative writing, illustration, and music with an empashis on composition. (Hey! It's beneficial to the CUASE! >.< wink The secondary choices I have picked out for myself are numerous, but bear with me.
Liberal Arts (Didn't I once claim I would like to be a teacher?) Spanish (I need the practice/ a refresher course. XD) Writing (Could be fun...) Art (General) (Actually, I could hate this one...) English (Emphasis on Lit. Ch, as if I had a choise! It's th eonly emphasis they offer! Graphis Design (Man, do I really want to? @.@; YES! I DO! DX) Psychology-Counseling-Human Services (I'd get an Associates in Art and Science...) My last secondary was journalism...
I think Journalism and Graphic Design share a 'bundle package' reasoning to them.. like, if you choose those, you absolutely must choose these specific other classes as well. Suddenly I'm very upset with myself for choosing creative writing as my major. I just want my arts, plskthnx I want my music, I want my drawing, I want my writing. I want to become an artist in my own right... a well accomplished one. X3 Besides, you can't say rock star without rock or star. XD
I will be and do both... -_- ... I swear! @_@;
I'll be a modern day bard: a renaissance woman! X3 But til I can gain all of those skills and become worthy of being a second "Entertainer" (Saku The Entertainer, cause I call no fairs on Cedric. XD) I will be merely Saku.
Oh man... all this pin and scheduling bullshit. I need to find out where to register, cause it just doesn't ******** tell you! >.< These people are already getting annoying. -.- But whatever. Once I'm in my fall classes, I'll be fine... ... Overloaded with homework, likely, but mostly fine. X3 I should be able to hate them in that "I love you, but I ******** hate you!" way, which is, as we all know, a very hateful yet loving hate. XD
Hmm... there must have been a reason I didn't add chemistry and aquatics to the list... oh yeah: aquatics is basically some weird aerobics class, and chemistry, well... I barely passed the class in high school. XD How about I just learn about random facts in chemistry without the ordeal of classes looming over my head? XD I'd rather just learn and know than to be tested on said knowledge. XD Now for a song I would totally play on the guitar if I was that skilled... XD It's beautiful, what can I say? I think I'm going to be able to add the Red Hot Chili Peppers to my favorites list as artists/ a band because they have a lot of songs that I am liking. @_@; They're just good... @_@; Add them in with the likes of Santana and Queen, two other band favorites of mine. n_n;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I could have lied RHCP
There must be something In the way I feel That she dont want me to feel The stare she bares cut me I dont care You see so what if I bleed
I could never change Just what I feel My face will never show What is not real
A mountain never seems to have The need to speak A look that shares so many seek The sweetest feeling I got from you The things I said to you were true
I could never change Just what I feel My face will never show What is not real
I could have lied Im such a fool My eyes could never never never Keep their cool Showed her and I told her how She struck me but Im ******** up now
But now shes gone yes shes gone away A soulful song That would not stay You see she hides cause she is scared But I dont care I wont be spared
I could have lied Im such a fool My eyes could never never never Keep their cool Showed her and I told her how She struck me but Im ******** up now
I could have lied Im such a fool My eyes could never never never Keep their cool Showed her and I told her how She struck me but Im ******** up now
