My last semester of college!

Yikes, this is it so let's go out with a bang! I landed a T.A. job so woohoo! I will be TA'ing for a speech class and I'm pretty pumped about it. However I was already signed up for 4 classes and now I don't know which class I should drop. Plus Bright Futures now supports small course loads so I only have to take 6 credit hours per semester to be a full time student. Since I only need 9 more credits to graduate I can afford to drop one more class. Here are my options and how I feel about each:

Sex & Gender:
+It sounds super interesting and will hopefully be a fun discussion class with cool subject matter
+I don't have to write any papers!
-It's my only Monday class.

Writing About Advertising:
-Teacher is a B
+Freshman level class hopefully means it will be easy
+It's about advertising which obviously I know a lot about
-I have to write 4 papers, 4 drafts for each which =16 papers! yikes!
-I don't get out until 6:30

Meteorology:
+Easy A
-At a random time so it doesn't quite fit into my schedule

I think I'll go to all 3 classes again tomorrow and and see how it goes and then decide which one to drop tomorrow night.

***Update:
So I didn't finish this post last night and today I did go to Meteorology and decided I would be bored to tears so I will drop that class. Plus I forgot to add HOT EYE CANDY as a pro to Sex & Gender and that beats the easy A of Meteorology. And I dropped the writing class so that's over! Yay.

Tomorrow I have a meeting with John about the TA position and then its the weekend! Woohoo!

Tonight I will read my Sookie book and watch P.S. What a relaxing evening. :-)

I have also been trying to decide what to do for my bday - invite people over and have cabs pick us up and take us to the bar, or throw a party at my house. I plan on shopping around my birthday and getting stuff from Hot Topic and AE because I have coupons and gift cards. I also need some new brown reefs or rainbow flip flops.

Oh and one more thing - my cousin is a genius like me so she came up with the idea to buy gift cards as a way to budget money. Each month buy a gift card for the exact amount you want to spend on groceries, gas, clothes, whatever and then you can't overspend. Publix is the only store I can think of to do that with but maybe I'll think of some others.
