Emotion: frenzied.
Random Thought: that would be a cool shot on my cluttered desk.
What: a mix of JAG tv show and some christian hip hop


so here's the deal trish. This is your plan.


CSUSM ends on May 13th for you. Your last final is your History final at 145-345. Then you're homefree for 3 days. You have night classes on Mon-Weds. on the 17th to the 19th. Again, you're free from Thursday to Sunday. Ok, now this is where you're shit out of luck. That monday, the 24th, you're tagalog portfolio is due, this is the week of midterms. however, summer school begins the same day and you have a comm class from 6-850 p.m. Now how are you going to work that out? This class is a MW class along with the TAG class. Do you think you can work something out with the communications professor? What can you do? You just dug a shit hole for yourself. (great) . . . as for tuesday you have two classes, one at 8 and one at 1. after the 1 o' clock class, you need to head down to mesa college where you will be taking your soc final. you still need to make sure that this class qualifies for credit for the ethnic studies minor. as for these summer classes at san marcos, you have created a schedule where you will be finished just in time to leave. so the last day of 6 week courses is july 3rd. just in time. so during finals, you will need to pack. for the next six weeks you will be going through an extensive program. you will come back on the day that summer school ends for san marcos, giving you a week and half to get settled and lose the jet lag. you will need to move in that weekend of the 20-22, so that you're fresh for the start of the fall semester, which begins on August 30th. For this semseter, you will be taking 5 classes of interest. hopefully you will be able to maintain academic excellence through this. You are enrolling in COMM 455, COMM 360, History of Human Rights, Soc 328 and 325. That will be a total of 17 units.

If you pass your 12 unit summer course and the 17 unit fall courses, you will have a total of 109. 50 units. all you have left is your chem 150, ges 103, BB, an upper division history course, 4 soc courses for crim, and maybe your foreign language course, unless you can get that waivered. meaning, you have 8 classes left. man. scary isn't it. here's the plan, you can take chem and ges in spring, that history class, and 2 soc courses. depending. that will leave you with your bb and 2 soc classes. maybe you can do this during the summer?


geez, that's pretty scary to see the finish line, like janet said. now while all this is happening, you need to be looking into the masters program at san francisco, there are a lot of wonderful opportunities there. such as community organizer who can influence social change through the grassroots organization of lowage workers in the AAPI community. this job is located in OAKLAND, and requires SIGNIFICANT TRAVEL. (nice!) . . or even a national executive director at Washington D.C., again requiring heavey to moderate travel. Gee, the future looks so bright, but is it really? hopefully all this school will get you somewhere.

you will be achieving a BA in Social Science with an emphasis on Sociology and secondary fields in Communications and History, as well as a minor in Ethnic Studies, and another minor in Criminology and Criminal Justice. your future entails receiving your masters at SFSU in Asian American Studies and a minor in Filipino Studies. You can even go as far as receiving a Ph.D. to become a university professor. You have many options in front of you. choose wisely, remember a degree is useless if you don't know how to use it.


all this shall be achieved before 2007, graduation in 2005, masters grad in 2006 or '07. Enjoy yourself!
