MasteringAstronomy.com

My Stars, Galaxies, and the Universe class this semester is the first one I've had that requires me to do online homework. Due at 5:00 today, I just completed the first assignment on masteringastronomy.com. It was an interesting experience, sometimes too easy and sometimes oddly frustrating. I managed to get a 93.8%, however, and I am hoping that will be a trend for the whole semester. The class is pretty simple, but some of the concepts are just a little hard to comprehend for me. Of course, I've never been good at science.

I have a couple more assignments to take care of before the weekend; I might do my Statistics and my Interpretation to Literature assignments today. I do have all day tomorrow, but Friday nights are usually late ones, and I might want to do some sleeping tomorrow. Sunday is the Super Bowl and I'm sure I'll be doing something. The ideal situation would be if I were doing my Stats and Lit assignments now, but instead I plan to shower and take care of my hair. I'm working on improving my work ethic, and slowly I think I'm doing all right. I think I'll have a better idea of how I'm doing a little further into the semester.

For now, however, it's time to doll myself up!

welcome to the world of online classes. where you can go to class at midnight and in your pjs. oh wait, college kids actually go to class in their pjs. I took astronomy last semester and it was very fun. :-)
