Blog 27 - Anyone Know a Fun Easy Class to Take?

So I found out that my date to schedule for classes is November 4th. I know what classes I need to take and have all of them picked out already, but unfortunately even with four classes it only adds up to 14 credits. One of those classes is only 1 credit because it's a lab class, and the other two engineering classes I am going to take are only worth 3 credits. My last class is my math class, which is thankfully 5 credits. Sigh. It's really such a pain that engineering classes are such low credit hours despite their difficulty level being more like 5 credit level. I guess this is why it takes engineers 5 years to graduate instead of 4. Anyway, back to the topic, I want to take a 5th class. My biggest fear is that if I take on the challenge of a 5th class I'll be so swamped with work that I'll be forced to drop whatever class I'm going to add. One of my friends suggested that I take one of those fun 1-2 credit classes like skydiving. I thought that was a great idea, and I really would like to do it. The only problem is I have no idea how to look up these classes!! I emailed my advisor but she only gave me 2 or 3 suggestions. I guess she doesn't exactly know where to look either, haha. So, for anyone that reads this blog, any suggestions for a fun silly class that's not too time consuming?

  1. Unfortunately I'm only a freshman so I can't help much with the fun classes. I know you can take some fitness/athletic classes in the 100's of PAES section I think. Good luck with scheduling!

  2. I suggest yoga. I really want to take it next quarter but I'm having a hart time fitting it into my schedule. But it's only one day a week and for like an hour and a half. It'd be like your working out for the day (week on my part) as well. There's also a bunch of other cool classes under that section like table tennis or ice skating or things of that nature. Good luck with all the classes!

  4. My key sis for my sorority is in an easy dance class and she says she loves it! I want to take golf, which seems kind of fun especially if you have some friends to do it with, in the spring but I don't know if you can take golf in the winter? Sorry that probably didn't help much but I would look into something like those. P.S. I, like Emily, love your picture. Up is one of my favorite Pixar movies ever! Kevin is my favorite! Besides Nemo.

  5. Thanks a lot guys -- hopefully I find something that will be easy and fun to take!

    And for all of you that reference the UP picture I put in my post -- LOVE UP! I cried like crazy though at the beginning...and in the end. Such a great movie. Have any of you watched the UP-isodes? they're on youtube, and the picture I uploaded is from one of the UP-isodes.
