Game Show

So I'm in a class called Intro to Computer Applications...I wouldn't normally take a class like this, although I would call myself computer/technologically challenged. But I'm taking it for my major, or so I can graduate sometime this century. And it turns out I absolutely love the professor!! He's completely amazing...And I'm considering a minor just so that I can see him more often....Although I already know I wont go with it just because I do want to graduate sometime soon.

Moving along....

This class is like a game show that you take notes during. There's a server, I think he designed it and what not, that we have to interact with and do all the assignments and what not on...But it gives extra credit....And you can buy things with the extra credit...Which is amazing...Oh, and there aren't any exams...Just a quiz every 5 weeks...Can you see why I'm loving this?? Anyway the extra credit that you can get when you're one on one with the server also applies, in a sense, to class - which has like 400 students. The screen goes blank and then a cartoonized character comes on screen and it's extra credit time...Where music and fanfare and confetti and host of other things all come into play to completely embarrass the poor kid who gets picked...Of course the extra credit at the end helps!! I so can't wait till it's my turn....If I took anymore time writing about it I'd be here for a while....And then I'd miss homegroup!!.. So...until next time kids!!
