The only thing I don't like about this is the toll roads that you see on steps 8 and 9 I'm trying to see if there's a way to avoid those bad boys. This is step one, we'll work on step two in a few. . .

EDIT!
If you take away the first toll road things can still work out, it's just a slightly trickier deal. . . (and offically it says it'll take us 4 hours and 22 minutes instead of 4 hours and 17 mins)

Okay. . . that one looks like this. . . the same first few steps, up to. . .

The schedual

In good news and anouncements I finally got my schedual figgured out. I can possibly take an extra class if I so feel the need, but right now I'm sitting at 13.5 credits and here is the schedual. . .

Monday:
9-10 Music 201 (civilization: music 1 - my history credit in music form)
10-11 English 218 (taught by my teacher that did intro to poetry, fiction and drama, this is my creative writing class, interesting little side note, ALL of the seats in EVERY class were taken, and there just happened to be one seat avaliable in the only section that he was teaching)
11-12 Sociology 310 (foundations of social inquiry)

Tuesday
8-9 Music 200 (Elements of Music, arts credit, this plus my ensamble credits = all my arts classes I need)
9-10 Religion 121 (Book of Mormon First half)

Wednesday
(see Monday)

Thursday
(See Tuesday but take out Music 200, that means only Religion 121)

Friday
(See Monday, Wednesday, but add in one extra class. . . )
English 321R- English department reading series. STORY TIME!

As you can see, Monday and Wednesday I'm done by noon, Tuesday and Thursday I'm done by 10, and Friday I'm done by 1. Hopefully that'll give me some time to work wherever it is that I'm working up there at BYU, or possibly take one other class but I don't know where I'd be able to fit it in, with that great schedual right there.

some love


just wanted to show fatkid some love :)
