    wewt starting school, finally classes that don't suck.

    Just started my 2 year in winona at University Minnesota SouthEast Technical. Its so nice not having to take BS classes like math, english, psychology, anthropology and other crap I don't care to learn.

    First semester:

    General Auto maintenance.
    Brakes
    Suspension and Steering.

    Only thing that sucks is I commute 50min a day to get there. And most of the classes start at 8am. So I have to wake my ass out of bed at 6am to get there. But at least I get done at 2:30.

    Now I get to spend god knows how much on tools wednesday. Have to get a rolling chest and fill her up. I have a 2 page list of junk to get, I have a lot of it already though.

    The only thing that blows is I am more or less junking my 2 years already done at the college in Rochester. The auto tech program isn't NATEF certified anymore so its worthless to take since I can't get into STEP with it.

    2 years then hopefully STEP time w00t ;)

    Nice man. I did the same thing when I went to MassBay for 2 years. All we did was learn about BMWs and how cars worked. I got about $5500 worth of tools, but it was all half off because of student discounts. You will hear about thoes soon. Good luck.

      Since I'm married, that's my "me" time.

      Quickly followed up by some more quality time on the john.

      Regards.

            I always enjoyed the psychology and sociology classes. I learned way more in those classes then I did in my degree-specific classes (telecommunications, computer hardware/software and networking).

            Just to make you feel better about your 50 minute commute and starting at 8am...
            I worked full time in school and had a 1.5 hour drive. Started work at 6:30am, left at 4ish, got a shower/ate and went to school from 6:30-10:30. Got home at 11:30-12:00, went to sleep for ~5 hours, and did it all again the next day. Did this 4 nights a week for 3 years. Enjoy your schedule, I would have loved what you have! I don't know how all the people with a family/kids did what I did, major props to them...

            Good luck with your classes, too. It will be well worth it.

              I have never taken a class that sucks.

              Maybe your attitude sucks? Well, used to suck I suppose.
