Ow, my brain.

Math is hard, Barbie! Let's go shopping!

Yay, RotK comes out today on DVD, along with the newest Dean Koontz book. Yeah, I am going to go to Borders or something on my lunch break.

I have to take a hiatus from University of Phoenix. I don't *want* to, but I'm required to have 30 credits of electives before I can begin my core classes, and I get no additional financial aid for that stuff, so screw them. I am not paying $1400 (roughly) out of pocket for a 5 week long class that'll give me 3 or 4 credits, when I can pay around $100/$150 to take it from a community college, and get pretty much the same number of credits. Yeah, it means my enrollment is delayed, and I'll have to take a 'proficiency test' once I'm done to make sure that I'm up to the UoP standard, but oh well.

It sucks, though. I can't take a lot of the distance learning courses from DeAnza, because they're largely telecourses, and DirecTV doesn't carry the correct channel. That leaves me with evening courses, which will just suck during the hockey season. Sigh.

(Update: Interestingly, DeAnza *does* have afternoon classes that are usually 2 or 3pm to 5 pm. It means I'm stuck on the 5am shift, but it's another option, at least.)

I have a meeting with a small business counselor at the Sunnyvale Chamber of Commerce on June 15. I have some questions I want to ask them before I get too involved in this Street Fair America thing, but if all goes well, I will have a list of products up for sale by the end of June. I hope. Wish me luck.

One of my clients is high. Seriously. I have no freaking idea where his problem is. I've been staring at it for 45 minutes now, thus the 'math is hard' and 'ow my brain' comments, and I am no closer to figuring out what the blue fuck he's talking about.

Save me. :)

your friendly neighborhood academic advisor invites you to consider if other community colleges in the state have distance learning that you can get for the same price. =D

i don't know if it is by districts down there or not, and this is likely obvious, but it might be a good way of making things work.
