Hey, my subject line rhymes! And I didn’t do that on purpose. Anyway, my rabbit had an exciting day…while I wasn’t home. Upon arriving home, I went in my room, dropped my bookbag, and then looked at the cage. It was open, and I ran to my parents and said, “Where’s Grumpy!!??” Apparently when my mum went to give Grumpy some lettuce, she didn’t lock the cage, so Grumpy decided to venture out on her own.

We found and chased her. When I picked her up, I felt her ears, and they were hot, indicating she ran around and got exercise. After putting her back in the cage, my mum said, “Now that would explain why there were cats at the bottom of our apartment complex yowling.” Yep, they must’ve smelled my dear rabbit and got excited. Luckily I didn’t see any electrical cords or my books chewed up. And we haven’t seen any “surprises.” It was kind of funny though, since my mum denied opening the cage today, and tried to blame me when I fed her this morning. Right.

Okay, now for my classes debate. Term IV for face-to-face classes came out finally. With that, UMUC Asia and Europe online classes, I have these classes to choose from. Also, I have to consider the fact that I need 3 more English classes, 2 upper-level electives, and 1 lower-level elective. From the English classes, I need to make sure I take at least one upper-level, and I need a genre and British author course. These are the class list:

Face-to-Face (From April 2 ~ May 26)
* ENGL 391: Advanced Expository and Research Writing; Every Saturday @ 0900 – 1600
* KORN 105: Introduction to Korean Language and Culture; Mon/Wed @ 1800 – 2100
* HIST 483: A History of Japan Since 1800; Tues/Thurs @ 1800 – 2100

Asian Division Online Classes (April 9 ~ July 6)
* ENGL 304: The Major Works of Shakespeare (Qualifies for British Author requirement)
* HIST 364: Emergence of Modern America: 1900 – 1945
* JAPN 105: Introduction to Japanese Language and Culture
* KORN 105: Introduction Korean Language and Culture
* KORN 333: Korean and Life Culture

European Division Online Classes (April 2 ~ July 1)
* ENGL 345: Modern Poetry (Qualifies for Genre requirement)
* ENGL 419: Major British Writers After 1800 (Qualifies for British Author requirement)
* HIST 337: Europe in the World Setting of the 20th Century
* HUMN 334: Understanding Movies

I know for sure that I feel compelled to take ENGL 391 and ENGL 304…but the idea of doing Shakespeare through online is making me feel ill. Not only do I have read his plays, but I also have to buy or rent the film adaptations of the plays. That class is planned to do Henry V, The Merchant of Venice, Macbeth, and Much Ado About Nothing. Except for the last one…I am not looking forward to the other three. Also the idea of writing research papers…darn it, I’m a creative writer! I hate essay writing. X_X;;

Another factor to consider all this is do I want to do shorter face-to-face schedule or endure a horrid, never-ending online schedule. X_x;; I also have to remember that if I do take more online classes, the terms overlap one another, especially between Term IV and V. For online, Term III ends by April 29, Term IV starts in April 2 or 9 ending in July 1 or 6, Term V starts in June 4 and ends in August 19. YUCK. So at one point I could have anywhere from 3 to 6 classes? Ugh…

I am almost positive that I will take ENGL 391 and ENGL 304, but I don’t know what my third option will be. I’ve been wanting to take JAPN 105 the last two terms. I could just choose that and get out of it, but another thing that helps me decide on the class is the syllabus. I need to see the syllabus and see what turns me on or off about what I expect from the class. Like if a class has group work (Through online? That’s like asking for trouble.), I won’t take it regardless how much I want to.

*sighs* Choices, choices, choices. Also, can someone explain to me why my current Bible as Literature does not count toward the genre portion of my major?! Had that count as the genre credit I need, I would only have to worry about making sure I obtain the darn British Author credit, and take whatever is available. One would THINK that the Bible is its own genre…but not my Uni. Anyway, comment? Question? Advices? *dies* I can’t wait till this is over.

Made two more fanlistings dedicated to Swing Girls and Waterboys. One day late, but part of it is not my fault. XD Whatever, they are up and done with.

Now to jump off the face of the planet to avoid all the school works I have to do in couple of weeks.

Last month, I finally did my own income tax return. As a economic dumbass, that was a difficult procedure. I did it, though. Almost even cheated myself couple bucks because I chose a wrong choice…but Dad caught it, and I had to redo the whole form. When done, I chose to have a cheque be sent to me since I like the idea of a cheque coming to me!

Well, I received the cheque, today. WOOT! $170.80! I will save $100 bucks in the bank for school purposes, and the rest of it will be spent buying random stuff from my wish list at AMAZON! Here I come! I didn’t even buy myself a birthday present, so this shall be my late birthday present.

My Illustrated Children’s Bible came today! That was faster than I expected. In fact, it came before my Bible as Literature midterm for this Saturday! Of course, that’s not going to be my actual “study material,” but it will let me review stuff “story-wise!”

I guess after what I went through today, not only was my “soul” in pain, but also the “soles” of my feet. Sorry. Bad pun! XD

I suffered through my six hours Bible as Literature class today. We covered the Book of Esther, Nehemiah, Daniel, Susanna, and Jonah. I actually liked the Book of Esther, but regardless of that, sitting there, waiting for class to end was pure torture. Especially since I was looking forward to what was going to happen after class.

After class, I met up with Sarah, AJ, and Sarah’s friend, Brian. The cool part? We are all animes/video games fan. How awesome is that? Very. We met up at Gate 10 of Yongsan, went to Dragon to eat at Oasis. Three of us had “fancy” burgers at a Mexican restaurant. How weird, eh? Sarah had this fajita thingie, and on the sizzling pan, there was this big ass pepper. AJ just HAD to make a comment, a very sexual one, about that pepper. I swear I turned three shades of red while giggling my butt off.

Then we headed to Yongsan Electronic Market. We walked around there for quite a while, and I discovered a new anime store, thanks to AJ. I had no idea that existed. Now ask me to find it again…I won’t find it. X_X;; Well, we walked back to Shinyongsan station, and Sarah and Brian went to her house to do their stuff, and AJ and I were originally going to walk to the bus stop near the base.

Upon arriving there, we decided to walk all the way to Itaewon. We hung out at Subway of all places after I got some hot chocolate at Dunkin’ Donuts. That hot chocolate tasted funky. I guess it didn’t help that they made it in the microwave. x_x;; Well, we stayed at Subway for a while, and then we decided to head home. She caught the bus, and I walked home.

Now, my feet are in pain, but it was well-deserved pain. It was an interesting day. I love it when different people of same interests get together and be geeky and nerdy together. That’s awesome.

The highlight of the night? At one of the places in Emart, there was these two double doors. On the left door, there was a sign that said “Use Right Door.” On the right door, there was a sign that said, “Use Left Door.” That was definitely a WTF moment. AJ even took pictures, and I don’t blame her! That was a Kodak moment.
