A galaxy of knowledge awaits...

My semester this year has led me down quite a few different paths of learning one way or another.  Psychology, art history, astronomy... all of those things are something that if you asked me a year ago I would have said I had no interest in! Can you believe that?!  Not interested in the fact that I can study the way people behave and think in psychology... or art history! Michelangelo painted upon the ceiling of the Sistine chapel, depictions of religious theme, bodies painted as though he sculpted them into the chapel itself.  Astronomy, how can our existence range from microscopic bacteria to galaxies that can span 10,000 parsecs (1 parsec for every 19 trillion miles.) trillion miles.  The knowledge that there is someone else out there.  If just one galaxy is 1,000-10,000 parsecs then imagine how large the universe is, multiple galaxies within every universe... It's not even possible to fathom the size of that. 
I haven't been able to take an astronomy class yet but it will definitely be one of my next classes now.  So far I have just been learning from wikipedia which has been quite intimidating with all the astronomical jargon they use.  Jargon is a huge reason I haven't been interested in many of these now amazing subjects! 

One of my friends who is going for an associates in arts suggested because I'm an artist type that I should take physics and astronomy for my two sciences and she got me really excited about learning both of those.  Then I looked at the required science classes I need for my associates in fine arts and I only have to take one science... so it's between astronomy and physics.  I hate that I have to choose, they're both extremely interesting. 

Sigh-sauce

School has been driving me absolutely nuts the last few weeks... It's not that I have had a LOT of work but it's just that I haven't been getting it done like I should be.  I'm making grades that are acceptable for myself but my parents keep saying, "You can get an A instead of a B on that if you work harder."  I know that but I don't want to work my ass off on school work, I need more me time without worries.  So far I have just had "me" time where I should have been doing school work which makes me worry about it... =( I would like to pick my psychology grade up to an A from it's current B status because I really enjoy psychology.  So far I have an A in design 2 and B's in psych and art history.  I'm happy with it but I'm currently behind, as I write this I should have had my two essays done for their due date tomorrow (3/1).  They aren't done though and that's why I have had a B in my art history class, because every essay I've turned in has been late! haha... crazy shit.
