Though I have never attended summer school in the past, I decided that it was going to be something that I would do this year. Since I am almost done my degree, after taking two classes this summer, I can be done in December – four months earlier than I am supposed to be.
So, I decided to take two electives this summer – one of them being English, and the other being Physics. Truth be told, neither of these sounded too interesting, but I needed them to graduate, so I had no choice.
The English class went by without a hitch, and I ended up with a good mark in it. I would like to say that it added some value to my life, but truth be told, I could have lived without taking it. I guess if I was a little bit more of a reader, then I might have appreciated it, but ever since I was a child reading gave me a headache, so I was very happy when I was done this class.
The second class was a lot more interesting that I had thought. In fact, I love what we are studying now: the difference between different types of light bulbs. It is interesting to learn how the particle interactions differ inside a Metal Halide bulb compared to a Fulham Ballast. Truth be told, I had no idea that there were so many different types of lights out there.
Needless to say, this summer has been great and I am looking forward to this being my last fall in school – seems like I have been here forever.
