Grades, wedding, update, etc...

Guess I should update this thing!

I ended up getting an A in precalculus, an A in organic chemistry, and a B- in biology... I ended up with a 3.557 for the semester, and was also on the Dean's list. :)

I also got into Drexel! I'm starting in the fall, and I'm going into environmental engineering. I kind of went from environmental science to engineering mostly because I'm a problem solver, and engineering is more of an "applied" degree--I can use what I know to solve problems related to the environment. I had considered chemical engineering since I seem to have a knack for chemistry, but I feel that an environmental engineering degree will accomplish the goal I set for myself when I decided to go back to school: giving back to the environment. I'll probably always want to do something else (like being a vet or being a tack shop owner, the latter of which I can still do many years from now), but I figure that's something I'll just have to live with. There are just not enough years in a lifetime to accomplish what I want to do! (For those that are interested, here's a link explaining environmental engineering: http://www.drexel.edu/academics/coe/cae/ugenve.asp )

The wedding plans are sort of coming along. When it comes to wedding details, I'm clueless. The whole wedding thing is just a foreign concept to me or something... I never know what I should be doing and when. *shrug* I guess as long as Eric and I sign the papers and make it official, that's all that matters. ;)

So, this semester, I'm taking precalculus II, an engineering class, and a literature class. After that, I'm planning on taking at least calculus and maybe physics this summer, but all of the other classes I need for the environmental engineering degree have to be taken at Drexel. I did get $13k in scholarships from Drexel, which is kind of a drop in the bucket (in my Midwestern-every-college-is-cheap opinion) considering how expensive Drexel is, but I guess every little bit helps! After Eric and I get married, I don't think we'll qualify for much aid. BOOOOO.
