Suckiness and textbooks
I've decided to enrol after all the fuss and thoughts. I am now a member of the ACNT family of tofu chomping medicine hopefuls.
So, after spending a considerable amount of time on the phone with Xena* who seduced me into signing a small bank loan for 1 semester fee of $2,900, I now have a module notes DVD, an enrolment form, and a timetable.
The first day "on campus" won't be till Feb 11th, however I decided to take the day off this week and head to the orientation day to get the vibe of the place. So far, I am anything but disappointed. It's a haphazard Dickens's sweatshop of natural therapy students, eccentric lecturers, really really hot student officers and BEST of all, my class is going to be right next to the fitness studio!
After sticking my head in that room and seeing wall-to-wall beefcake fitness diploma wannabes, I realised I made the right decision to study face to face.
The lectuers are eccentric, healthy types who walk around with a certain air of confidence and laid back attitude. The learning is going to be logical. What I didn't count on was the fact for every 8 hours on campus, I have 10 hours of "homework" . Oops!
So, My new home Mondays, Wednesdays 6-10pm and eight saturdays through the year welcomed me, my credit card, and my open mind to come study.
Now, if only I can get over the ridiculous prices of Anatomy textbooks...
More on my first day when it comes.
