It’s come to the point where I am just simply going to have to drop a class. That class is Art History. I do realize of course that this means I won’t be graduating this May. If I’m lucky, I can get a Humanities class (or whatever one the Art History class is that full fills for my Creative Writing Major). Am I upset about this? Of course I am. But the way my brain works, it can’t keep up with the level I should be at. On my last test, I didn’t think I did super great but I thought I at least did better than my 1st exam. As it turned out, I did about 5-10% worse. The only way I could possibly hope to study for the exams in that class would be if they were open note. In dropping the class now, I can get by with a W for the class and I can improve in my Rhetorical Traditions class.
(By the way, I just had to go back and add an ebecause I originally said I can improv in my Rhetorical Traditions class…if only)
Speaking of improv, I want more improv during the week…even if I’m not involved and just an audience member. It’s all on the weekend for me and by the time Monday and Tuesday roll around, I get all depressed/angry/irritable/fill in the blank.
Other news, I went to the doctor today for my wrist which has been hurting like (choose your own euphemism here) and as it turns out, I’ve got a slight tendinitis. So the doctor decided to give me some Celebrex. He was about to prescribe me something but I asked if it would cause my ulcer to flare up (I’ve had 3 bleeding ulcers between Oct. 30th 2004 and Easter Day 2006 and would like to avoid that risk…which includes leaving out foods that have a hint of spice, pepper, acid, and drinks that contain caffeine or alcohol). He decided to go with the Celebrex to be on the safe side saying it wouldn’t do that…but the label on there says it has that potential…but apparently if taken too long. Hopefully, my wrist heals up quickly.
Anyway, I’ll see in time how things work out.
