Currently I am a freshmen in his second semester of college, shooting for a PC Software Engineer/Software Developer Bachelor's degree (Undecided). I've finished my first semester of classes and I can honestly say, I've had enough.
A little background: I graduated High School with high honors, and have been hitting a B+, A- average in college. I'm sick of English classes (I think this upcoming semester is my last English course).
Music is my life, and have been a drummer for 7 years & have stuck with my guitar player through the majority of that time. I don't 'party', drink, or smoke (legally or illegally)
I've gone to college and hated it. Didn't feel like being social, so I kept to myself. A 'social life' is something I really don't need. As long as I have music in my life I am happy.
In my college, I am required (to be considered full time) I need 12 credits. Each class being 1-5 credits. (Average class, 3 credits). I have taken the bare minimum for this requirement. 4 Classes. 3 Credits Each. Math, English, 'Social Science' class: Criminal Justice?! (Forced for scheduling), and of course: PC Programming I.
We are forced a certain number of "cultural diversity/social science" courses. I don't like these courses, nore do I like the English courses. I was wondering, does college EVER get "fun", class wise I mean? Or do I have to take more than my 12 credits to have any additional "fun" classes? I have a busy life and see no need to take MORE classes in an environment I currently don't like.
I was wondering, when should I expect to be able to have the option to explore other classes while keeping the same workload? Does college always stay this linear & boring?
