I think I'm in heaven
These are the syllabi for two of my classes for spring term--British Lit 2 and Creative Writing: Poetry. Both give a good (if not exact) indication of what I'll be doing in these classes from January until May. I could. not. be. happier.

I'm going to float through spring semester in a haze of dreamlike, euphoric bliss.

4. Classes where my grade rests on my ability to write
and my knowledge of poetry and literature are classes that I'm gonna ace for sure. They're telling me to read Blake and Byron and they're calling it homework??? Count me IN. :hi:

7. Accounting stuff would be hard for me.
I don't think I could stay interested enough to do well in a class about accounting. Ugh.

Each to their own. Hope you're having a terrific holiday season so far :) :hi:

9. you also!
i used to date a girl at a liberal arts school in new york who took an accounting course as an elective (she was a dance major). she invited me up during finals to do her take home final in that class. she got an f**king "a" on the final.

5. I can't imagine I would have ever been any good
at writing peotry. But I really enjoyed my British Lit courses way back when.

I hope you have a wonderful semester and enjoy those classes as much as you anticipate. :)

8. I refuse to believe that.
You're too much of an empath to not have an inner poet. You just need to let it out. :hug:
