Hi, my name is Beth, but you obviously got that by looking at my profile. I'm 23 years old. I'm writing in this blog, not because I want to, but because I have to. My first blog is due tomorrow so I can't really think of anything else to say but to complain about how much I'm not enjoying school right now.
I have been out of high school for 5 years now. I have gone to MATC for one year since than, but dropped after the first year because it wasn't what I wanted. Now I'm back at school realizing that once again the years that you have to put in to getting your bachelor's degree are almost pointless. Most of my classes I'm taking this semester don't have anything to do with what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my life. What do I need to know about Western History for when I'm going to be studying Eastern medicine. What about anthropology, I don't know about you but I don't think that has anything to do with acupuncture or oriental medicine. But I still have to waste my money taking these classes. When I'm done at UW FDL I'm still not going to be done.
I will be going to Illinois to the school I will end up in. The first two years, however, will be finishing up with my bachelor's degree. So that means taking more of these classes. After those two years I'm positive it will get better though. I'm excited about doing this though because I finally found out what I want to do and I know I will be helping so many people. Also, I can't wait to rub it in certain people's faces that don't have faith in me.
So, yes I think think this is a stupid assignment. Than again that's my own opinion. Who knows maybe after 15 or so weeks I might enjoy writing in a blog.

Hi Beth,
I know what you mean when talking about pointless classes we need to take. This past year I went to UW Green Bay and wasted a boat load of money on classes that would dumb, in my opinion, that had nothing to do with what I was going for. In fact when I transfer to UW Fondy, most of my credits transferred but I still had to retake the same credits here at UW Fondy. For example, this English class 101, I took comp. 101 for an English class @ UW Green Bay…talk about wasting money, I paying to take the same class over again, when I pasted it in the first place! But our general education courses are supposed to make us students, well-rounded, that’s what they say. I think that they just want our money but the sad thing is a person can not find a good paying career without some type of secondary school like college or tech!
