    If the mind is empty, you would be filling it. If it was closed, then you would be opening it. You must not have gotten enough education.

    LMAO, that class would really bore the hell out of me as one of my main jobs is soils inspection and construction, Im already NICET Level III certified in soils, I dont need to be quizzed on soils PIs, liquid limits, gradation, lime pointd, wet ball and triaxles. I actually cant wait until I get to some of my more degree specific classes, those are going to be the easiest for me.

    What makes classes so hard for me is I take them once a week so Im in there for almsot 3 hours at a time and the numbing factor that accompanies that is rediculous.

    our psych class is fairly fun...mainly cause our professor is one of those just interesting people. I would have to say the most boring class Ive had so far is Intro to Restoration...although I hear trim class is worse...same teacher
    Always buying things I dont need to impress people I dont know

    I attended dozens of schools in Europe and the US, and from my experience any subject can be made interesting. If the education system was "perfect", there would be no boring classes.
