Well as I do from time to time, I re-examine what classes I have left to take to graduate, when I will take them, and how heavy the load will be. I enjoy doing this very much. It makes me giddy to think about it. When I first started out my planning was very unrealistic, I wanted and still do to study physics along with my engineering courses as well as more mathematics and possibly get a math degree along with my engineering degree as well as a physics degree. Looking back now I realize how that totally was going never going to happen. But yesterday I realized that I still have a shot and a realistic shot. I am a computer engineering major, and last week I realized that while an electrical engineer can have a concentration in computer engineering the concentration and the major are not the same. So alot of the classes I have taken for my degree overlap into the electrical engineering degree all I will have to do is take FOUR more classes over what I need to do to get that second degree. But wait there is more, I also have to take alot of computer science classes and in that as well I figure I only have to take five more classes in that to get a computer science degree. So if it wasn't for all of that I will graduate in about a year and a half. However, if I take nine more courses, I will graduate in three years with three degrees. I just had to talk about this because I am so happy. But I wonder when my giddyness wears off will I realize that I am just as deluded as when I started out. The only down side is that for the next three years I will have a crap load of classes each semester at most five classes, and up until now I have only been taking three classes per semester. Decisions decisions.
