Two blogs ago I mention how much I loved music history and talked about all the neat and interesting things I had been learning.
This week, however, I had to drop the course. Due to some rather pesky illness that I've been fighting all summer I felt that it would be better to drop one of my most time consuming courses and take time to get better, rather than be dead at the end of the semester and not be able to come back.
I am slightly, but not overly, saddened that I had to drop music history. It is such an insightful course that has taught me boundless loads of information about where Western music came from and how it is what it is today. Also, now I don't have to study my brains out in an attempt to pass the nearly impossible listening tests that are once a month; which makes me very happy.
School is a wonderfully amazing thing and I think I would be a student forever if 1) I didn't have to pay such an exorbitant amount for tuition, 2) I didn't require final exams to pass classes (final exams hate me and I hate them), and 3) if I could keep everyone roughly the same age so that I didn't feel like one of the Golden Girls every time I walked into a class room.

Sorry to hear you had to drop the course, but the great thing is...when you have time, you can just study it on your own just because you love it that much! All the best with your tests!
You school-loving scholar, you.
Hope you're starting to feel better!
I really do love school. Well now that I'm taking courses I want to take, not the ones I have to. Although I think I could do without Keyboard skills; we don't get along very well.
