about

Um... hi. I'm Holly, 17. Live in Denver but I'm from Virginia originally. I don't know what to say... haha. I like to hang out with my friends and such, watch TV and movies. I'm also into fitness and sports, and I'm one of those freaks that actually likes school. I also enjoy helping people out, which is why I'm here. I have advice on pretty much every topic, and I try to help in the best way I know how -- I'm not one for giving sarcastic answers to questions and such.

My course at university only allows me to take a certain number of credits (this is the same for all students, irrespective of how they do academically). There is this course I'd really like to do, but I've already got all the credits I'm allowed to take and there's nothing I can really drop. I like this course enough that I'm thinking of doing it despite the fact that I wouldn't be allowed to take the exam at the end and wouldn't get any creditpoints from it which would go towards my final graduating grade. Is this a stupid idea? I really can't see there being issues with me managing my time even with the additional load, as my current work load is really reasonable. On the other hand, I feel like I'd be wasting time doing an elective I'd get no credit for academically. It's by no means an easy course and it's not something that will be useful to me, it's just something I'm interested in. Is it worth taking on more just because it's interesting?

You could always take the course next year, right? So why not wait?
But I guess if you don't want to wait that long (or if this is your last year at university), you can go ahead and take the course. As long as you're not breaking any rules or taking on too much coursework, I think it's an okay idea. And you can always drop the class if it gets to be too much, right?
♥ Hope I helped.
