Right now, trying to play it cool while studying for biology. I feel like they're SPEAKING A DIFFERENT language and it stresses me out a bit
Right now that's how I feel about my financial management course...that I ended up dropping. It's a required course, sooooooo I'm gonna have to sort that out eventually.
Right now, that sounds like a boring class!

My advisor told me to take Cell Biology last term which is kind of a higher level biology class... that didn't go well, after the second week I was completely lost and dropped the class This term I'm taking a beginners biology class and being my own advisor

Right now, financial management sounds a lot better than biology.

Fun WSB fact: High School biology was the only grade worse than B I got before college. And I couldn't even complain about the teacher (who didn't like me from day 1 , unlike the teachers who grew to dislike me deservedly!) because his daughter was a friend of mine.

Right now, adding for Monica, biology is often a weed out class... for engineering, it's usually chemistry or physics, but biology was the weed out class for a lot of other majors. So it's unnecessarily difficult, which is unfortunate because I think that chases people away from pursuing interests when the first class in a sequence is that hard.

Right now, if you survive Biology, the next weed-out class is usually Organic Chem - my sister switched majors after O-Chem.

Right now I remember my father's response after I got a C in Organic Chem.

Right now I'm saying my dad said something like, "What's so hard about Organic Chem? I aced that course."
