Semester Two at Vermont Tech

I just wanted to let everyone know what classes I am taking this semester.
In no particular order of importance they are:
Physics
Calculus
CAD part II
English-Technical Writing
Materials (deals with concrete and asphalt)

Lots of work this semester. One more class than last. I have 18 credits this time. I won't have to take 5 classes again during a semester thankfully. My schedule is better than last semester in that I have only one day that I am on campus from 8-6. I still have my job at the hardware/feed store on Wednesday afternoons and weekends. I set up tutors for myself in Calculus and Physics. I really like having tutors especially the way it works at VTC. If you sign up early enough (of course I did!!) you can get a 1:1 tutor. Plus there is no charge for this service. There is lots of drop in tutoring but none of that is 1:1. This school seems to go out of its way to help us succeed. I hope I can do as well as I did first semester. I have put a fair amount of pressure on myself to do well. I really like to get A's.

I think that Johnny the Bobblehead is planning to attend some of my classes with me this semester. He claims he wants to learn some more, but I think he just wants to check out the co-eds.
