My classes this semester are: Senior Seminar in Russian, Econometrics, Probability, and Linear Algebra.
Senior Seminar in Russian
Topic: The Culture of the Provinces. This isn't going to be that great. Not because of the topic, but because over half of the people in my class are native speakers, so there's no competing with them. Plus, I'm going to have to write two essays and a term paper. Blech. I don't like writing papers in English, let alone Russian.
Econometrics
Econometrics is basically the study of economics using statistical methods. It's with my crappy professor from last semester. He can't teach, so hopefully my GSI will be helpful, but I haven't met her yet. I guess as long as I can get the same grade I got last semester, I'll be satisfied.
Probability
This is basically the same class I took with my Econometrics professor last semester, so I'm hoping it'll be easy. Really easy. Really, really easy.
Linear Algebra
So, this is kind of the class I'm taking just so I can take a harder class over the summer that has this class as a prerequisite. Uh, yeah, I guess I am that crazy. However, I feel my karma is working. I take an extra math class,
and I get a little something in return. What could that possibly be, you ask? My professor kind of looks like Paul Rudd. You know, if Paul Rudd were to play a mathematics professor, and keep that crazy beard he has going on in this picture. My professor has a pretty good sense of humor, and their voices are even eerily similar. They could be, like, brothers or something. Okay, maybe only I see it, but that's all that really matters; at least I'll have something distract me from the pain of mathematics for the semester. In this class, anyway...It would be really nice if I were writing about my last semester. *Sigh.* Oh, well. Getting a minor in mathematics will be worth taking summer classes in the long run. ...Or at least it better be!
