Mandarin will definitely be a challenge! Are you multilingual already? I'm just taking German 2...
Also, film as literature sounds interesting. I liked the one film class I took. I start tomorrow, as well, and the one class I'm looking forward to is Contemporary Moral Issues.

That's awesome. Good luck in that! A month long vacation is a nice incentive.

i took a film class last year to fulfill an art requirement and it was the biggest load of shit, constantly trying to derive meaning from film shots where there was none. that quarter i had taken senior level classes in politics and philosophy in addition to this 1st year film course and the worst grade was in this film class even though i had aced everything. they just graded purposely hard to make it seem like a legit class because by the subject matter it was clearly not.

I actually already started out here in cali. I have already taken all of my anthropology requirments so know I am stuck with a few last minutes general eduacation courses before I transfer. Japanese is going to kick my ass something special this semester. I always seem to pull off a B but this time I am going to actually study so I can see what happens. Good luck with Mandarin! That will be allot of work.

The best thing about going to skewl is when you don't have to go to skewl anymore, like after you get your degree and shit.

yeah it was me who discouraged you. manila isn't the nicest looking of places, but depending on where you are there...it can be ok. it's changing a lot so i've heard.
i want to bring my husband to the philippines and it's been a long time since i've been there. my family have accumulated some properties so that my sister and i could go there and it'll be "just like home." i have a flat (that i haven't been to...yet) overlooking the manila bay and a major blvd, next to a shopping centre which is next to the business district...which could actually be next to your father's place
in regards to the classes that i have this semester...i've got pretty good ones...
i just completed a course on jitter (add on to max/msp - programming for interactive installations) - internet technologies - website programming fundimentals - digital video editing/imaging - multimedia authoring - interactive audiovisual narrative production

yea, i always appreciate some good advice... Sounds like your trying for web site design? i tried that in 2002 when I went to school for the first time but I dropped it because everyone I was talking to in that field said to get out of it. All were waiters looking for a job this school I was going to promised to give them and never did. But maybe its differeent because it was a 1 year certificate school program thingy. Not accredited.

not webdesign..i've been doing multimedia and webdesign for a few years now for work. now it's down to web development and programming in general.
my masters is in new media so it's mainly to do with design and technology i suppose is the only way i can describe it :P i'm putting a lot of emphasis on programming this year as well as anything to do with video and animation.

Quote:
not webdesign
Never, EVER, say that you are a Webdesigner; don't even put it on a Business Card!!!
After all the money got soaked up and left, after the Internet Depression of Y2K, the word Webdesigner became frowned upon because alot of people who said they where really webdesigners couldn't do too much beyond simple HTML and some Java Script. As a result those individuals with specialized training and know-how were pressed into service.
Remember that quote from the move P.C.U., "YOU CAN MAJOR IN GAMEBOY IF YOU KNOW HOW TO BULLSHIT"? Webdesigners, especially in SoCal, are those types of people who Major in GameBoy. They knew how to bullshit and that is what kept them in business or in work. These type of people should go to skewl and become PHds in some Liberal-Arts study, since they would be better at doing that type of stuff.
