Registering for Fall!

I registered for fall semester yesterday. So, I figured I might just take a few minutes to say what classes I signed up for (not that anyone really cares):

Japanese 201
Korean 101
Astronomy 111 / 113 (Lab)
SLC 201 (something about an introduction to cultural and literacy theory)

As you can see there's not a whole lot special about it, but I'm excited about the Korean since grammatically, it is exactly like Japanese, and I taught myself Hangeul just a few weeks ago ^__^
I'm sort of excited about the astronomy class too; I need to take a lab science in order to fulfill my Quantitative Science gen ed requirement, so I figure I'll take the least boring one. The Lab is on Tuesday nights from 730 to 10 (!) which sort of sucks but I guess since it IS after all an astronomy class that would make sense. In all, I'm signed up for 17 credit hours (which is fine with me). Though, I'm glad that I will have had a nice vacation in Vienna :)

Speaking of which, I wired my dad some money last night so he could go ahead and book me a ticket (since my bank will only let me charge things $300 or less, and the ticket is about $1100). My dad is actually being cool and paying for a good chunk of the ticket, even though I already have all the money. And he said he'd help me out with spending money for the summer if it turns out I'm a little short by then. I'm not really sure what to think; he said that when I get back that he's going to fly out here to visit for a week. I'm worried that he's just using it as an excuse to drink, since we can't really monitor him the way his mother and brother do. He denies it of course, but I still don't know what think because that's what he's done every other time he's come out here since he moved to Minnesota 6 years ago. Actually, when he was out here last May for my graduation, he hadn't even been in the state 5 hours when I caught him coming back from the check cashing place on the corner with a half-empty bottle of booze in hand. I love my dad but he makes it impossible to trust him. Does this make me mean?

Whatever, I'll deal with what happens when it happens, it's not even for another 6 months. I've been looking at fares on the LOT Polish website as their fares are the cheapest, and I've been looking up what kinds of airplanes I'd be taking....one of them is one of those epic triple-row planes!! Right now it's looking like I'd be going from Phoenix to Chicago, an 8-hour layover in Chicago (which sucks but there's nothing I can do about it) , then from Chicago to either Krakow or Warsaw, and then from there to Vienna :) I'm excited, yo!
