4.0

The weather has finally improved, and I am going to the Bronx Zoo today. I was there about two years ago and I do not expect much to have changed. However, it is a fun place to visit, and I am going to try to explore some areas that I missed the last time I was there.

I plan to travel down to 34^th Street in Manhattan later today. I am going to eat Korean with my girlfriend and we are also going to check out a sale at Macy’s. Tomorrow, we will probably go to Philadelphia if the weather stays warm.

My last quarter went very well. I was able to get As for all my classes, which means that I am still maintaining my GPA of 4.0. This is something that I will try very hard to keep since I only have two more quarters left before graduating.

The syllabuses for my next quarter’s classes have already been posted. This is great because it allows students to get an overview of what is ahead of them. The syllabuses also list the required textbook.

For people who purchase textbooks online, this is of great advantage since it normally takes about a week to receive a book ordered from “Amazon” or “Half.”

I am taking six classes next quarter, a placement seminar class, which is a preparation course for the internship taking place on the last quarter, forensic science, human resource management, entrepreneurship, multimedia and business presentations, and bioethics.

It will, most likely, be a very busy quarter for me. The reason that I am taking six courses instead of the standard of four, is that I want to graduate by September. All my books cost approximately $200, which is okay actually since I can resell all of them after the quarter. Also, if I had bought brand new books it would have cost me more than $400.

I am going to try to enjoy the rest of my break before school and work starts again. Like I said, I am planning to go to Philly, the Bronx Zoo, and a few other places. I might try to take long walks in Brooklyn. For example, I want to go to Coney Island if the weather is warm and I figured that it would take about an hour to walk there from my home. We will see what happens. I will keep you posted.

By the way, the pictures are of much worse quality than before because I am using my iPhone to take them. The effects are added by an application that I use. It makes the pictures a little more interesting. Let me know if you do not like them. It is just easier for me to upload pictures this way than to transfer pictures from my Canon 5D.
