Woohoooooo

So, I know I posted about this fairly recently, but I'll repeat it again:
I recently transferred to a different online school and switched my major to American History.

Second day of history class, and I have already crammed more information into my brain than I think I learned throughout the entirety of middle school and high school. So, yay me?

The courses I'm taking are accelerated, which means I'm essentially taking an entire class in the span of 2 months, so needless to say there is a lot of information being thrown at me at once.

I'm rather exhausted and my brain hurts, but I'm not having a bad time. Currently learning about post-Civil War, and more specifically working on reading through a gigantic chapter on Westward Expansion.

Had to pick a final project topic from a list of about 6, and ended up selecting the Women's Liberation Movement, which will be quite interesting to learn about because I don't actually know all that much about it.

Honestly, I'm still really excited, which is good because I'm not usually very excited about much. I can't wait until I get to take a class on early America / American Revolution, since that's my favorite. I'm from New England and I grew up taking trips to Boston to walk the Freedom Trail.
Sadly, since my major is American History I probably won't get to learn as much about the French Revolution and early Icelandic history as I might like (my other favorites), but oh well. I'm enjoying what I am learning about, which is more than what I can say for when my major was programming or hospitality...And yay, no art requirement.

Well, this is going to be fun.

Does anyone remember how I used to play Divina Online before it shut down?

Well, I really wanted to play it, so I decided that I'm going to download the Japanese version. So far it's been challenging to set up an account and figure out how to do the Capcha, but I did it! I don't read Japanese, so it's going to be a challenge. It's still downloading, so maybe I'll work on some flashcards for at least hiragana...that's enough for today I think. I can understand a tiny bit when it's spoken or if it's Romanized, so maybe I think I'll work on memorizing characters while it loads.
Hey, by the time I get bored of playing Divina maybe I'll be able to read Japanese!

...I can dream, right?
